Who will be coming to Genoa City, who will be leaving town, and who must watch their backs? "The Young and the Restless" spoilers reveal that some old and new faces will be popping in, perhaps to stir some conflict.

Starting with those arriving to Genoa City in the coming episodes, JT (Thad Luckinbill), Reed's (Tristan Lake Leabu) father, will mark his re-entry into "The Young and the Restless" on Dec. 12. Following JT is Jill (Jess Walton), who will be coming to town on Dec. 18.

Kevin (Greg Rikaart) will also be popping up in Genoa City as well as Traci (Beth Maitland). As to when they will reappear is uncertain, but they will be appearing in some or more episodes soon.

As for those who will be leaving, Lisa Guerrero has now wrapped up her stint as Kerry Forrest. She has definitely served her purpose and will now do some more reporting off-screen. Zack (Ryan Ashton) has also served his purpose and went out in a body bag by now. This villainous character ended up getting what was coming to him when Crystal (Morgan Obenreder) suddenly appeared and shot him.

As shocking as it might seem getting played out on screen, it was not much of a surprise. Ashton certainly agreed that it was the only way for Zack to go out. In an interview, he talked about his character's arc and when he knew that it was the end of the line for him. Ashton shared that the moment he found out that Zack was involved in a prostitution syndicate, he knew this was not going to end well for him.

Ashton even said that he was surprised that Zack lasted as long as he did, and that it was the right move to kill him off.

Another scheming character will also find himself out of town. Jordan (Darnell Kirkwood) has been revealed to have left Genoa City. He managed to get revenge on Hilary (Mishael Morgan) for exposing him. Then again, it is possible that leaking the nudes could blow up on his face, which is why he decided to disappear for a while.

However, there might be a big storyline coming. The buzz reveals that Jordan could come back with possibly another blow to Hilary. She would have to watch her back during this time, Jordan should do the same as Hilary could definitely turn the tables on him if he is not careful.

"The Young and the Restless" airs Mondays to Fridays at 1:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
