Upon reflecting on the list, it seems there are some actors who can be brought back in an interesting twist.

For example, characters like John Abbott and Dina Mergeron would have been great additions. However that becomes impossible as actors, Jerry Douglas and Marla Adams have passed over to the other side. Similarly, some other actor may decline the offer due to advanced age.
The Most Viable ComeBack Options
Having said that, there are three names in the above list that seem viable to return. Cassie Newman has been deceased on The Young and The Restless for a while now. But, if actress Camryn Grimes wishes to do a double shift, she can always appear in a flashback sequence or even a dream sequence. There is also a more dramatic option of bringing her back as a ghost! Actor Doug Davidson portrayed Paul Williams, the commissioner of GCPD. And while he has been off the screen, he can always come to take charge of his department.
Another viable option is actress Tricia Cast, who portrayed Nina Webster, Chance’s mother. If she chooses to come back, this is a perfect time. Chance’s life is in the dumps! He surely can use his mother’s support on The Young and The Restless. So, did you spot a name you would like to see come back? Please share your views in the comments.
