Nice photo. That set has improved since the redo. But the sofa is too small.

Again everyone except Abby in dark drab shades.

When is it going to get through that no one looks good in brown? #Daniel.

Didn't pay attention to it until now, yeah very small.

Lily is hosting Thanksgiving for the Winters.

Quoting a few snippets that @janea4old shared

Zenk now resides in Naples, FL, but her Genoa City duties have kept her busy in Los Angeles.

"I have a daughter here in L.A. and I haven’t been back to Florida since the day I started working on the show, but I will be there for Christmas"

"Y&R has bent over backwards to accommodate me so it’s just been great."

"I also have my dog, a Maltese and Shih Tzu, my little Boo with me."

How long Jordan will be in Genoa City is still a wait-and-see situation, but the actress is having a blast appearing on a show she is a fan of. She says since ATWT ended she started watching YR.

She says Josh Griffith sent her an email about the story and stuff and she replied within 15 minutes wanting in. She says Josh Griffith was writing on ATWT during evil Barbara days so he knows what she can do and teases that Jordan is pretty intense.

She went on to note that:

"the story will take a while to fully come to light, so people will definitely have to stay tuned to find out Jordan’s ulterior motive."

How long will Zenk be in Genoa City? She said:

"It’ll be a while, but I don’t actually know how long. I guess you’ll just have to stay tuned!"

Cole shows up during tommorows us show. Jordan used Nikkis phone to text him that something was wrong with Victoria 

Colleen Zenk is NOT on contract. She is recurring according to the Canadian end credits

"I've been sitting on a secret for 11 weeks. I've reprised my role as Cole Howard on YR after many years."

I wonder if Jordan is really Cole's mother and the scorned ex of Victor.  If Claire is really Cole and Victoria's deceased daughter, could he be in on this plot??? It would be a twist if Cole knew the baby survived and gave to his mother to help raise to keep her away from the Newmans(especially Victor) etc. 

We shall see!

Is the show getting farther ahead? Colleen says she started back in August.

Then why didn't Claire go after Victoria, rather than Nikki?

Cole was never evil though, as far I think? Then again, JT wasn't evil either...[\spoiler]

I don't think he knows, atleast I HOPE he doesn't.

I don't care what anyone says, Hayley Erin has been great as Claire 

She plays crazy good I think. She's got those eyes when staring at Nikki lol

Spring/Summer 1998 and onwards until 2000 the show was BETTER than in the previous years, IMO.

Then it got not as good when Jack Smith got more influence correct? What happened under him that fans just did not like? I know his son sadly had cancer so he was just not in it.

Christian LeBlanc posted this. They got a jail set up.

He is  last credited as  HW on July 3, 1998  

Was there any notable difference when Kay took over or did it just feel mostly the same?

When did Bill Bell stop writing? Ik it says 98 but was that actually when? Because I know he had alzhiemers.

With all the vodka and alcoholism references, is it possible Claire and Aunt Jordon have something to do with Nikki's past as an alcoholic?  Did Nikki ever kill anyone while driving drunk?  Or hurt anyone in some other way, during her heavy alcohol use?  Perhaps Claire and Aunt Jordan  are connected to Nikki through her addiction.  Who knows??   

The rumors are 

Maybe I'm wrong. The last time we saw Nikkis Multiple Sclerosis was when Sally Sussman Morina did that piano concert story?

Victoria is named after Victor and Nicholas is named after Nicole (Nikki).
I thought it was as simple as that.

Victoria isn't even named after Victor lol At the time she was born, she was believed to be Nikki’s husband, Kevin’s, child, and was named after his grandfather.

Listen, I *still* don't understand why Nikki would name her son "Nicholas," after how her own father, Nick, had treated her.

Speaking of Nikki, I guess it makes sense for her to be tortured into falling off the wagon again, but...I dunno...I feel like that's a well they've gone to far too often.  And has her MS even been mentioned during this ordeal?  Wouldn't the stress she's under cause her to have some sort of relapse?

MS has not been mentioned yet.

ED original recipe Ashley, BE Ashley, SS Ashley, ED return Ashley feel like four different characters and not the same character.

I've pointed out before that I thought Bill Bell lost interest in the Abbotts when Y&R was off track (Fall 1994 through first half of 1997). I wonder though if he started losing interest in the Abbotts earlier than that, maybe around 1987. This overlaps w/ Cricket eating the show, Ed Scott becoming EP, the big three recasts, and Traci role on the show being reduced (BM was on-and-off it seemed from 1987-1995).

 

What happened to make the show feel off track in those years?

I'm cautiously optimistic about the Claire storyline. I must admit it's the most interested I've been in a story on this show IN A VERY LONG TIME. 

I was wondering who Claire kept referring to with waiting for "the whole family" to show up. Includes Cole???

I'm happy MTS has something to do! And a bit shocked how far they're going. Nikki being tortured and forced back into a relapse of her alcoholism.

Bette Davis?

I bet he's heavily recurring if staying. Sort of how they're handling Heather, Mamie and Danny.

The reintroduction of Liz's parents was soooooo poooor! I'm pissed the episode isn't available yet so i can watch Aunt Jordan's entrance! this is so much fun, was working on ATWT clips this week, so collen coming back to daytime is an extra nice treat

Here's the clip if you want to watch it.   

@Soapsuds colleen Zenk on how they kept it a secret.

“I’ve been doing this since early August,” she confesses. “Which is a long time to keep this kind of secret!” So how, exactly, did the show manage to do so? “They literally did not have my name on anything. Not on a script list, not on a dressing room list. When they called me to the set, they used my character name, never my actual name. They did everything they could to make sure nobody talked… including me! I got one phone call from [headwriter] Josh Griffith, and once he described the character and storyline to me, I said, ‘I’ll be on the next plane!’ Jordan is right up my alley”

Zenk doesn’t yet know Aunt Jordan’s endgame, but even if she did, she wouldn’t spill the beans — well, not all of them, anyway. (A longtime soap star like her knows better than to reveal everything!) However, she does say that “the story will take a while to fully come to light, so people will definitely have to stay tuned to find out Jordan’s ulterior motive.”

As for exactly how long Zenk and Jordan will remain in Genoa City, the actress insists that’s up in the air. “It’ll be a while, but I don’t actually know how long,” she says. “I guess you’ll just have to stay tuned!”

Maybe this helps! there's a compilation of when Barbara was briefly a Vixen in the 1980's and There's what seems to be the Entire Storyline of Barbara's oral cancer, made after Colleen Suffered it in real life!

 

Thanks!
