Happy New Year? Not so much in Genoa City. After a brief holiday hiatus (“The Young and the Restless” airs repeat episodes on Tuesday, December 31, 2024, and Wednesday, January 1, 2025), the drama returns full force on Thursday, January 2, with Sharon Newman at the center of a terrifying ordeal. Nick Newman discovers her missing, her empty car a silent testament to her abduction by the increasingly unstable Jordan.
Waking up as Jordan’s hostage, Sharon faces a grim reality: Jordan intends to carry out Ian Ward’s deadly request. Speaking of unwelcome returns, Mariah Copeland comes face-to-face with her former tormentor, Ian Ward himself. After Ian drugs Tessa Porter, Mariah is left with a horrifying choice to save her wife’s life. Where exactly Jordan is keeping Sharon remains a mystery. Similarly, the specifics of Ian Ward’s demands, and the nature of Tessa’s condition, are still unclear. Plus, Victor Newman is also set to have a run-in with Ian during the week. It seems the patriarch of the Newman clan is never far from the action.
“The Young and the Restless” airs weekdays at 12:30 PM on CBS.
