Would Young and the Restless Kill Damian After July 14?
On the July 14 episode of The Young and the Restless, Damian got stabbed. (And maybe also poisoned?) His life hangs in the balance. Also in the balance? Our sanity. Why would The Young and the Restless…. For weeks before viewers saw Damian (Jermaine Rivers) on Y&R, they heard about him. Amy (Valarie Pettiford) couldn't stop talking about him, Nate (Sean Dominic) couldn't stop talking about him, and even Audra (Zuleyka Silver) got into the act. We got a Damian fake-out when Holden (Nathan Owens) pretended to be Nate's missing brother and Amy's missing son. That build-up was second only to the mystery of Who Is Aristotle Dumas. And now we know that Dumas is Cane (Billy Flynn). And Cane and Dumas are at odds, not just about business, but over Lily (Christel Khalil), as well. Why would Y&R introduce Damian with so much fanfare if they were only planning to kill him almost immediately? MORE: Find out what happens next on Y&R. Maybe it's an issue with the actor. Either he wants to leave, or The Powers That Be aren't happy with his performance. But if that's the case, why not recast? Rivers has only been on the canvas since February 3. Fans like him well enough. But we are not overly attached. A recast wouldn't be too bad after only six months on the air. We've been strongly urged to care about Damian. So why nip that in the bud? Why would Y&R introduce Damian with so much fanfare if they were only planning to kill him almost immediately? WATCH NOW: Big drama! Hot takes! Watch SoapHub Says now! Yes, mysteries are fun, especially the locked room kind, which is what the story in France is supposed to be. A bunch of people with complicated relationships with each other, all locked up. No one can get in, no one can get out. So it has to be one of them. (Obviously, the people who cool and clean aren't people, so they can't be suspects. And Cane and Adam [Mark Grossman] can come in and out, but we're not supposed to remember that, either.) But mysteries are only fun if we care about the victim. And Damian isn't there yet. Why would Y&R introduce Damian with so much fanfare if they were only planning to kill him almost immediately? Think you've cracked the next twist? Send it to news@
