‘The Young and the Restless’ is preempted for Thanksgiving 2022

Throughout the 2022 season, The Young and the Restless has been preempted a few times. Most of the interruptions were because of breaking news coverage and March Madness. The show rarely took a break for the holidays.

However, according to Soap Opera News, the series won’t be seen on Nov. 24 and 25. Instead, the network will show sports coverage. While it will be a short week for the soap opera, there will be excitement.

What’s happening in Genoa City during Thanksgiving week

While the preemption will cause a short week, it’ll be an eventful Thanksgiving in Genoa City. Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) will open Crimson Lights to serve dinner to those less fortunate. Many Genoa City residents will put their petty problems aside to help Sharon.

Meanwhile, the Abbotts will gather for a Thanksgiving feast, which will be anything but peaceful. Dinner guest Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) wants to enjoy her first holiday back with her son Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor). But Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) isn’t keeping things amicable. Ashley will use the gathering to antagonize Diane about her upcoming downfall.

Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) is on for a surprise when her son Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) returns. Daniel has a lot to discuss with his mom, including recent changes in his life. One of those changes might be a move back to Genoa City.

New episodes of ‘The Young and the Restless’ will air on Nov. 28, 2022

The Young and the Restless will be briefly preempted for the Thanksgiving holiday. But fans can expect new episodes on Monday Nov. 28. There will be plenty of drama following as the holiday season continues.
