The Young and the Restless Poll Results: What’s Next For Jack?

On the Young and the Restless, Jack Abbot is hot, rich, smart, single, and charming. He’s also got nothing to do. This most eligible bachelor in Genoa City is spending his days playing peacemaker between son Kyle (Michael Mealor) and newfound nephew Theo (Tyler Johnson), his evenings digging through his parents’ pasts with sister Traci (Beth Maitland), and his nights… alone.

Does any of that sound right? Over 2,000 fans make a 2020 wish for Jack’s (Peter Bergman) future:

The Young and the Restless: Love, Love Me Do

It’s a landslide, as 83% of the audience demands a new romance — with a new woman. Forget Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) — she’s made it clear she’ll always end up back with Victor (Eric Braeden). And he’s already been through most of the other eligible women in town.

So either bring on someone completely new — though a little more honest than Kerry — or a long-ago face from the past. Jack has just been in touch with Lori and Leslie Brooks about their dad’s relationship with Dina (Marla Adams). What are they up to these days?

Phack Phire

Then again, 12% of you want to see Jack and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) give it another go. She wasn’t herself when she had that marriage-ending affair with Billy (Jason Thompson). She’s more the old Phyllis now. And that Phyllis still has sizzling chemistry with Jack!

Love Shack

Or how about Sharon (Sharon Case), 3% of The Young and the Restless fans remind. You guys reconnected when out of town. And Rey (Jordi Vilasuso) is bound to disappoint her soon enough. This Shack is sturdy!

An Affair To Remember

Only 2% voted for an affair with Nikki. Because you understand that it can never be long term. Victor will always win. But it might be fun to rattle his cage for a while. And Nikki is the only one who can do that. The Young and the Restless (YR) airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for airtimes.
