The Young and the Restless

Y&R Poll: Who Do You Want Victoria To End Up With?

January 13, 2019

On The Young and the Restless, while Victoria (Amelia Heinle) is trying to recover from her abusive relationship with her ex J.T. Hellstrom (Thad Luckinbill), and knows that her mother killed him trying to protect her, she has now found herself leaning on another former ex, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), and co-worker and friend, Cane Ashby (Daniel Goddard).

With Lily (Christel Khalil) drifting further from Cane now that she is serving a prison term for the accident that caused Hilary’s death, Cane and Victoria recently found themselves in a steamy kiss, and drawn to one another.

Meanwhile, it’s hard to deny and see those old feelings between Billy and Victoria, and the history that these two have shared over the years, through thick and through thin.

Big problem is – Cane and Billy have no love lost for each other, which makes this situation all the more combustible.

So, in our latest Y&R poll, we ask you, “Who Do You Want Victoria To End Up With?”

Vote now and below for Billy, Cane, or if you think Victoria should not get involved with either, and go it alone for awhile?

Share why you voted the way you did in the comment section.

Guest

Elizabeth Laviola

Billy dosn’t deserve no woman! He used summer and he is treating Kyle badly!

Guest

Jenn Sutt

Cane!! I’ve never been a fan of Cane and Lily. I love seeing DG getting to play something else. Love them kissing and hope it goes further. Great drama with Billy, Cane and Victoria.

Guest

Sam

Cane the pain whispers too much

Guest

Laurene

” it’s hard to deny and see those old feelings between Billy and Victoria”

Where ? When ?
The guy begged Phyllis to take him back two minutes ago, promised to fight for her and the day after, he wanted Victoria.

Guest

Celia

Well…..this is how I see it, Laurene: the old feelings were between Billy Miller and Amelia–they did have a phenominal connection…..this Billy is a sap.
So, yeah—I agree with your; “Where? When?”….I will add: How? Why?

Guest

Denise A Daniel

Billy & Victoria have been over for eons & the have zero sexual chemistry. They’re like brother/sister. A Victoria/Cane romance would drive story. Lily’s in prison. Her family has been supportive of Cane but once they learn about his stepping out they are going to be pissed. Would they tell Lily?
Billy & Phyllis have flaming chemistry. They need to be trapped somewhere where they can fight it out & get past both being unfaithful.
Victoria/Cane need to solidify by the time Lily’s back and then game on! Perhaps she winds up with Nick.

Guest

Sharon

No Cane and Victoria, bring Lily back with a new Character, No Phillis and Billy nor Nick. A new man for Phyllis a new woman for Billy.

billy/phyllis and cane/victoria

hell no

hell yes! this is my opinion so i have the right to express it.

Christina

Billy eventually. I want the love story <3

Guest

Jennifer

While the cane thing is interesting…her soulmate Billy. They’re the true love story and what I hope will be the end game.

Guest

Harry

I agree. And Jason Thompson is hitting it out of the park playing Billy Abbott–I think he has great chemistry with Victoria.

Guest

Catherine

They have me swooning. I wasn’t sure but their chemistry has been excellent lately.

Guest

Violet Lemm

Oh, I agree with Harry about Billy and Victoria. I do love Billy Miller, but I like Jason’s chemestry with Victoria even more. Also, I want Nick with someone else, other than Phyllis. I just can not stand that woman anymore.

Guest

Christina

Same with me. Billy and Victoria Forever <3

Guest

Shayma

I want Billy and Victoria find their way back to one another. Victoria is the only woman he ever loved truly and married her 3 times. She grounds him. Also they have family together and Reed trusts Billy more than anyone. They were not given a chance every since he returned his accident. Now Billy fot his lust out of the way, it’s time he return to his family and help Victoria heal from the abuse she sustained last year. He was there to protect her so he needs to step up and the man Victoria wants him to be-her… Read more »

Guest

Lauren

I voted for Cane. Seeing Victoria and Cane’s fight ending in a kiss it was first time in a long these two characters felt alive to me. They felt fresh and new and full of chemistry that could lead to unlimited storylines then later down the line they can add Lily into the mix when she is released from prison. Going back to their Brash and Sassy days I’ve always felt a spark between the characters and I was pleasantly surprised at the turn their fight took. I feel like Victoria and Cane are both in desperate need of new… Read more »

What gets me is the way you and others simply ignore Lily She is Canes wife So why should he even be an option. Mal Young in his awful writing threw Lily in prison when Really Victoria,her mom,Phyllis and Sharon should be there Then to add more insult Mal has Cane written to do this As a long time viewer I am extremely insulted and disgusted with Mal Young and TPTB that allowed him to do this. This story event doesnt look good for Cane or Victoria( a once battered woman qho totally disregards another woman) Will no sensible person… Read more »

Guest

GramS

Christel wanted to go on recurring so the s/l sent her to prison. Her choice not Young’s.

Guest

Melo

Recurring doesn’t justify this story plot by Mal Young It also doesn’t mean prison and it doesn’t mean that you don’t get a viable s/l. CK also said she would be available when needed.

Guest

Missy

I feel like some folks are agenda voting/shipping. I think AH & JT have a natural chemistry. The thing is we never got the chance to explore this version of Villy because right away Phyllis was in the orbit as soon as Jason took over the role. I didn’t mind Philly,but I’m enjoying the Villy scenes more & more now that we’re getting a chance with this version. I never cared much for Cane. I guess they needed a way to keep DG on the show. I honestly would have preferred a villy triangle with Devon!

Guest

Laurene

Villy were together when JT took the role. They also had months alone at B&S.

They had their chance to explore their version and they suck.
They have zero sexual chemistry and are like dry paint.

Guest

Vikki

Victoria & Billy has been done to death. Quit selling this pairing as some epic love story when A) She is his fallback for the umpteenth time. He still would be with Phyllis had she not rejected him. B) He always cheats on her. C) She has to be portrayed as a less than so Billy can play hero. D) Her drive & ambition is taken away from her because of the gender inequality being pushed. She deserves better.

Guest

Patrick

Great Post : have to highlight first off… the one thing that supersede ^^^ Nick and Sharon, god how dead Sharon Case is; thee show… okay should Michelle Stafford; Eileen Davidson; RETURN would never dull or diminish… She needs a helluva BIG man… ta da ! Michael Muhney RETURN what an eclipse this would C and D : c: ” ^^^ C) She has to be portrayed as a less than ” D: ” ^^^ D) Her drive & ambition is taken away from her because of the gender inequality being pushed” which is so odd.. yeah? considering.. she’s Victor… Read more »

Cane is MARRIED. What about his wife? I really hate seeing Cane become another Nick . Lily needs Cane so of course have him cheat. Sharon needed Nick when he cheated on her. I know it is a soap but can’t we have a man stand by his wife when things get tough?

Guest

Pam

Billy is Victoria’s soul mate at Nikki is to Victor

Billy. They are and have always been soulmates. I hope they finally get the chance to be happy.

Billy. Thompson and Heinle have been fabulous lately showing these two falling in love all over again. Kudos.

Billy Abbott. @ameliamheinle and @myjasonthompson have me fanboying lately hahaha!

As long as it’s not Cain……I never liked him; not that I like this Billy, either…..but he’s a far cry from Cain ( the name itself tells a story). Cain sucks the air out of a scene; and my space, LOL. I don’t think I’ve imagined this…..but, I remember having read that perhaps, there are two JT’s? The fake one is truly dead, but the real JT is somewhere, roaming around with amnesia. Victoria and the JT I remember, were soooo good together. He certainly was not an abusive maniac. Bring the good JT back….send Cain packing and put no-personality-spoiled-brat-screw-up-Billy… Read more »

Ron

Hi Celia! Loved your post and agree with you. I still think Billy belongs with Mac. Victoria needs a calming soul, like a teacher!

Guest

Celia

LOL….You give teachers a bad name, Ron–my husband calls me a spitfire!!
Seriously, my friend….I like neither Cane, nor This Billy. I cannot fathom how anyone can say that Billy belongs to anyone…..we have not seen Thompson with anyone except crazy Non-Phyllis.
But, you’re right…..introduce someone else—-there’s too much recycling going on. How about Jack? She’s, at least, in her forties–kidding!!!! Nah….
❤️

Guest

Ron

Spitfire? Wow! Keep at it! My wife calls me a keg of dynamite.
Boy, that Jack story unnerves me. Whatever happened to his Vietnamese wife? I don’t recall.Then again, he’s had so many marriages, you would think he realizes he’s not meant to be married.

I await the arrival of the new writers. Let’s see them rescue this show.

Guest

Celia

Hi, Ron, I do hope this show can be rescued….I’ve been watching since I was in diapers…….life would not be the same without my Y&R. It was bad enough mourning the loss of AMC, AW and OLTL….I can’t lose this one, too. I don’t remember what happened to Jack’s Vietnamese wife…..I did mention his son, Kemo, a few times. He should be well into his forties. This is the reason I am so frustrated, Ron…..Jack should not be dallying; fooling around; indulging….whatever; with a girl young enough to be his daughter. My father is younger than Jack. The “destruction” of… Read more »

Hi again, Celia– busy here with digging out from several inches of snow. Winter finally arrived in the midwest the past couple of weekends ( in case you haven’t noticed the lack of “wintry” storylines on Y and R!) I’m guessing the new head writers will first figure out how to undo a lot of mess and end the sophomoric storylines currently running, then they’ll need to bring faith back to the loyal viewers who rely on the show’s history by righting a lot of wrongs. Most of all, I hope the current staff of writers beef up their skills.… Read more »

Hello, Ron, Happy New Year to you and yours….thank you. I was in the midst of typing when, suddenly, the screen went blank….and this, a brand new iPad….I go through them like water. I keep dropping them, shattering the screen, LOL. So, if you get two replies; that’s the reason. YEAH… I know about all the white stuff you’re getting. I was talking to my cousin in Toronto, yesterday…..she was complaining about it, too. We got rain, instead…..but, the temp will only be fourteen tomorrow–icy roads terrify me; I can handle the fluffy stuff, LOL. I hear you, my friend…..what… Read more »

Boston is my favorite US city. Aside from Notre Dame, not much happening in Indiana (our neighbor state.) And, the Chicago Tribune wrote a long article about college entrance requirements and found (after a year-long survey) the two toughest schools to get into throughout the US are #1, Northwestern and #2, U of Chicago. So, my bright son wrote his Northwestern college essay about the definition of IMPOSSIBLE and how doesn’t believe in it!

It was 4 degrees this morning, wind chill -12.

Guest

Celia

Hi, Ron,
As one teacher to another…….Today, while his children were arguing, Cane interruped by saying, ” ….between your mom and I….”. No need to explain to you. Bad grammar is as much your pet-peeve as it is mine—-and, I do not mean typos ( those don’t count, LOL).

Guest

Amanda

It should be Billy. I am just not buying this forced angle with Cane and Victoria and what happened to his so called love for Lily? It is just horrid writing.

Guest

Celia

Agreed, Amanda…….This will be another epic fail in a quadrangle-idiotic-love-story. If Cane and Victoria get together, these writers will make him look worse than the heel he already is. A patsy!! His wife is in jail and here he is having lurid designs on another woman……VICTORIA of all people???? …..why should he be involved with anyone in the first place? His sexual drive must be too insurmountable for him to handle?? Then, there’s Jack and the giant-girl-woman…..every time they make out, my stomach lurches!! Mamma mia; he’s an old man!! Yuck!! Why? Worst writing…..these penners should get some common sense–Jack… Read more »

GramS

Cane is now and always has been a lying slime ball. No way he should be with Victoria. Let Billy and Victoria renew their love.

Guest

Violet Lemm

Gram S, I thoroughly agree with you. I can’t stand that lousy Cain. Him whining at the prison, when he went to see Lily today, was sickening. I also don’t like Jill always fawning all over him, like he’s so wonderful. She comes to GC for five minutes at a time, but is always right there to tell Cane and Billy how to run their lives. Too bad she can’t see the real jerk of a con man she married.

Billy and Victoria they make a good couple and they have children together

Who cares about children ? Two people shouldn’t be together because they have children but because they LOVE each other.

Billy and Chloe had a child too.

Cane is not an option he is married to Lily Winters Ashby. I am simply amazed at the number of bloggers and TPTB that be seeing Lily’s life as parts to be portioned off to the next woman in need of a spare part and yes that is what has been done for years use Lily’s life as spare parts. Where is your poll for why Lily should not be in jail for an accident when the real criminals go free and live the high life around GC including getting her husband. I have never seen a poll giving Lily… Read more »

Guest

Celia

Hi, Ane,
The first thing I said when Lily was sentenced was exactly that!! My parents are both attorneys, and albeit this is a soap……it is amazing how these soap-gods twist the law to the extreme.
Lily should have never gone to jail—it was an accident. Yes, someone did die as a consequence, but it was an accident nonetheless.
My mother said that had Lily been drinking, then the writers could/may have used it as an excuse/reason to sentence her.
Bluntly put; the writing su*ks!! Getting worse and worse….and this my favorite soap!! It hurts saying it…..

Good gawd! Listen up! It the era of the woman, Strong women. The woman is rising. Victoria needs no man. She can Date, hook-up, check out the stock but she does Not need to have a man in her life messing it up. What has happened to play the field? this I need I a man or I’m gonna die is crapola.. Women do well, very well without a man/relationship. And No respectful woman would take a man back that has screwed everyone in her space and caused her much pain, who in Hades does that! Victoria doesn’t need Billy… Read more »

highly agree

Guest

Bart

Neither – I hate the character of Cane Ashby (and not a fan of narcissist Daniel Goddard) and Jason Thompson still sucks as Billy Abbott!!

If Billy Miller came back to “Y & R”, then I’d want Billy & Vicki together – Amelia had great chemistry with Billy Miller!!

Guest

Sharon

victoria needs a new man and sharon should go back to nick they always really loved each other they look better together. Victoria is too high strung and boring for Billy and Cane is very boring and should be taken off the show never the less Cane belongs to Lily.

Guest

Lynette

I have been a follower of the Young and the Restless for years and I am sad for a couple of reasons that I am contemplating not watching anymore. Number 1. To NOT see the Characters such as Paul Williams or that of Lily, Gloria and others of the cast who were good in their rolls no longer are on anymore. 2. I am sorry the acting of Rey, Lola, Arturo and Mia is not of the best. In fact I find the characters they are playing very boring. You need to have some more creative writing to keep the… Read more »

Don’t want Victoria with Cane. He needs to remember his wife. He’s not drunk this time.

Neither one. Cane has a wife and if Victoria knowingly goes with him while Lily is in prison, I’m sorry, I’ve got no respect for the character. PLUS I AM SECRETLY HOPING ON ONE OF HIS DRIVES TO SEE LILY HE IS KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT. Having her with Billy is lazy. Like Nick processing his undying love for Phyllis after processing his undying love for Sharon weeks before at the altar. Get new cast. Finish the JT story and instead of a love story it’s how Victoria as a strong – ER woman now fights to prove her innocence… Read more »

Victoria and Cane give viewers something new and interesting. Also, the fact that Billy only showed up on Victoria’s doorstep when Phyllis dissed him. I really think that Billy and Victoria are the super couple but they both need some time to heal!

In addition, the former cast members from Pine Valley also try to stump viewers at home with some additional character-related questions.
