So without further ado…

Whoevertheyhated, we hatedbut, oh, was she fun to despise!
Ryan McNeil (Scott Reeves)
Oh, did Victor (Eric Braeden) hate him!
Robert Voets/CBS
But a handsome one, at that.
Also, his hair always deserved its own (limited series) spin-off.
Nina Webster (Tricia Cast)
Flo’s (Sharon Farrell) daughter was such a mammoth trainwreck!
Robert Voets/CBS
It only got zanier from there.
Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, the series' creators.
Also, her character went from being a teen model to a successful lawyer.
Monty Brinton/CBS
Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle)
She’s an astute businesswoman and voracious man-eater.
Then again, what else would you expect from the daughter of Victor Newman?
Hey, everyone makes mistakes now and then.
Monty Brinton/CBS
Kevin Fisher (Greg Rikaart)
Gloria’s son and Michael’s brother was such a delightful little troublemaker.
Also:humada humada.
Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan)
She was such a bad, bad girl.
Tony Esparza/CBS
She’s also the master manipulator of men (see: Jack, Nick).
Paul Williams (Doug Davidson)
Genoa City’s private investigator was also thenicestguy in town.
I’m sorry,whydid he have to leave again?
CBS
You’re welcome backanytime.
Lauren Fenmore (Tracey E. Bregman)
Her relationship with Michael Baldwin makes us all believe in endless love.
Maybe it helps that she never really ages?
Cliff Lipson/CBS
Victor Newman (Eric Braeden)
We can’t put him at No.
1he’s just too damn infuriating.
What’s not to like?
Monty Brinton/CBS
Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper)
Daytime’s grand matriarch needs no introduction.
We miss you, Duchess.
And the best character onTheYoung and the Restlessis…
1.
Dove Shore
But that’s not the primary reason why he’s at the top spot.
While he may be volatile and frequently unpredictable, he’s also the bedrock of the show.
There is simply noY&Rwithout Jack.
