I have been watching Young and the restless for 30 years. Over the past year this show is horrendous. The storylines I just plain stupid. The current one which has Nick and Sharon‘s son shacking up with this Sienna person is ridiculous. Who the heck does their casting. Both of these people were in a previous soap opera as mother and son. Every time they’re in a scene together on YNR all I see is the fact that they are mother and son it is just plain stupid casting the actress who plays Sharon is probably the worst actress ever. She overacts every single scene. And the storyline with Kane is just plain stupid and boring. What has happened to my once favorite soap?
