Happy Homecoming: Are You Glad To Have The Great Victor Newman Back?

He’s baaaaack! Victor, that is, on The Young and the Restless. It’s about time, too. Ever since he went off the grid, his family’s lives have been falling apart… literally, in Nikki’s (Melody Thomas Scott) case.

Of course, if you were facing a murder charge, would you be in a hurry to come back home? How do fans feel about Victor (Eric Braeden) finally hitting Genoa City? Here’s what over 4,000 said on the subject.

Let’s Get This Party Started!
Heck, yeah, 91% are blowing their leftover New Year’s horns and tossing recycled confetti in the air.

Victor is back, Y&R is back on the air! He’s got so much mess to take care of! There’s Reed (Tristan Lake Leabu) running over Nikki. Victor doesn’t need to ask Nikki – he knows she’d want him to coverup their grandson’s crime, because family is everything!

And he needs to make sure Rey (Jordi Vilasuso) pays for doing his job and arresting Victor. All justice in Genoa City must be distributed by Victor!

Plus, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Kerry (Alice Hunter) have connected. Time for Victor to show the chemist the error of her ways.

He’s going to be so busy. Good thing Summer (Hunter King) is holding down the fort in the Abu Dhabi office. She’s so qualified for the job. Victor said so!

Silent Night
Oh, God, Victor is back, 9% of you cringe. It’s going to get much louder up in here. He’s got Rey to yell at, and Jack, and Reed, and especially Nikki. Recover – you got that!

It was kind of nice to have him gone. People got to make their own decisions without running everything past Victor first. No one was reminded of how disloyal they were, and we didn’t have to hear about Victor’s poor, sad childhood. Those days are over, alas.
