Monday, December 22

Victor Newman is about to LOSE it! Young and the Restless spoilers reveal that Victor seethes after Nikki puts her support behind Jack Abbott. After everything Victor has done to destroy Jabot and take down Jack, his own wife is siding with the ENEMY? The Great Victor Newman is not going to take this lying down, and the fallout from Nikki’s betrayal could shake the Newman marriage to its core!

Meanwhile, Billy Abbott and Kyle find themselves on the same side! These two have been at each other’s throats for YEARS, so whatever is bringing them together must be serious. Could they be uniting against a common enemy, or is this an uneasy alliance that’s destined to crumble?

Victoria Newman is concerned about Claire being around Holden Novak. Victoria has every reason to be worried since Holden has a violent past that includes accidentally killing someone! Is Victoria’s maternal instinct kicking in, or does she know something about Holden that Claire doesn’t?

Tuesday, December 23

Nick Newman forces Matt Clark’s hand! Matt Clark has been terrorizing Salem and holding Noah hostage, so Nick is DONE playing games. Whatever Nick does to force Matt’s hand could end this nightmare once and for all, or it could make things exponentially worse!

Lily Winters catches Cane getting close to Phyllis Summers, and she is NOT happy about it! Lily has been softening toward Cane lately, but watching him cozy up to Red might send her right back to hating him. Phyllis and Cane have been circling each other for weeks, and Lily catching them together is going to be MESSY!

Tracy Abbott shares sage advice with Diane Jenkins. Diane could definitely use some wisdom right now as she’s trying to take down Victor while keeping her family together. Will Tracy’s advice help Diane navigate this war, or is Diane too far gone to listen?

It’s Christmas Eve in Genoa City, and miracles are happening! Victor Newman and Nikki remember what’s truly important. After Victor’s fury over Nikki supporting Jack, could the holiday spirit bring these two back together? Sometimes it takes a special occasion to remind even The Mustache that family comes before vendettas!

Victoria and Billy celebrate the season together. These co-parents have been through SO much, and it’s nice to see them putting their differences aside for the holidays. Could there be rekindled sparks, or is this purely for the kids?

Jack Abbott and Diane count their blessings. Despite everything Victor Newman has thrown at them, Jack and Diane still have each other. This quiet moment of gratitude might be exactly what they need before the next round of chaos hits!

Thursday, December 25

Merry Christmas! Young and the Restless is airing a repeat classic episode where Victor is visited by ghosts of Christmas past! This throwback episode is always a fan favorite, showing us a different side of The Great Victor Newman. Grab your eggnog and enjoy the nostalgia!

Friday, December 26

Jack puts Billy’s loyalty to the test! After Billy and Kyle found common ground earlier this week, Jack wants to make sure Billy is truly committed to the Abbott family. Billy has flip-flopped between the Abbotts and his own schemes SO many times that Jack has every right to be suspicious!

Michael Baldwin turns to Lauren Fenmore as he makes a tough decision. Michael has been caught in the middle of the Newman versus Abbott war, and whatever decision he’s facing must be serious if he needs Lauren’s support. Will Michael choose a side, or is he trying to get OUT of this mess entirely?

Chelsea Lawson gives Adam an ultimatum! Chelsea already announced she’s done with Newman Media and Victor’s dirty work. Now she’s putting Adam on notice! Either Adam walks away from Victor’s schemes, or Chelsea might be walking away from Adam. The pressure is ON!
