The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers for Wednesday, January 8, tease that Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) will support Theo Vanderway (Tyler Johnson). Y&R fans know Jack wants Theo to feel like part of the family. Although he doesn’t intend to give Theo special treatment, he certainly wants Theo to feel valued at Jabot, too.
In an effort to make Theo feel like a true part of the team, Jack will back him up on Wednesday. Unfortunately, that plan won’t turn out very well. Jack’s decision will end in disaster – most likely by causing even more tension between Theo and Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor).
Kyle may feel like Jack’s choosing sides or undermining his authority. After all, Kyle and Jack are co-CEOs for now. They’re both over Theo, so Kyle won’t appreciate it if Jack starts calling the shots alone. He’ll think he should have just as much say in whether Theo’s idea gets approved or shut down.
Other Young and the Restless spoilers say Abby Newman (Melissa Ordway) will have some advice for Devon Hamilton (Bryton James). After they take a moment to catch up, Abby will gladly weigh in on Devon’s problem.
Whether this involves Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) or something else, Abby will prove she’s a solid friend and a great source of guidance.
Meanwhile, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) will face a warning from his father. Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) will make it clear that he doesn’t want any more trouble from Adam. He’ll want Adam to confirm he’s no longer going to be a rulebreaker, but Adam won’t be able to promise that.
As far as Adam’s family is concerned, he’ll break as many rules as necessary. Adam’s not about to blow his last shot with Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) or his chance to give Connor Newman (Judah Mackey) the united fam he so desperately desires.
Of course, Adam doesn’t intend to burn Genoa City to the ground to keep his reunion dreams alive. Chelsea doesn’t want an out-of-control Adam anyway. She seems to like Adam’s wild side deep down, but there are limits! If Adam can keep his risky nature in check and prove he’s committed to his future with Chelsea, that should be enough.
Victor should admire Adam’s determination and devotion. He may not always agree with his son’s tactics, but he can relate to Adam’s willingness to do anything for his family. The Young and the Restless spoilers say Victor and Adam may take another step forward in mending their relationship.
It sounds like some great scenes are coming up. We’ll give you updates as other Y&R news emerges. Stay tuned to the CBS soap and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest Young and the Restless spoilers, updates and news.
