The Best and Worse Storylines for The Young & the Restless in 2007

As far as storylines go 2007 was not a great year for The Young & the Restless. I have to say most of this year’s storylines just have not been very compelling. The year started off with the return of Sheila who now look just like Phyllis. This storyline was just stupid. If they wanted to finally kill off Sheila they should have just bought back Kimberlin Brown, since she is the one who created the role. At least that storyline did not last too long. Than we have the total rewrite of history by making Cane Jill’s son. Even though Daniel Goddard has been an asset to the cast, couldn’t they have found some other character for him to play, instead this whole switch at birth storyline. Than there was Daniel’s obsession with pornography. If they wanted to find a way to break up the marriage of Lily and Daniel could they have not come up with something better than this. It seem like there were a few storylines that had some potential like Nick’s amnesia and the garage collapse, but those storylines quickly fizzled. Basically none of the storylines this year have excited me. The best thing going for The Young & the Restless right now is there stellar cast. Hopefully in 2008 these actors will get someone who can once again write interesting and compelling stories for them. The actors and the viewers deserve that.
