No, I'm sure they think they're still fooling the audience. So, if I were you, when they do reveal who she is, just act surprised.

:lol::lol::lol: This post? LOVE.

I don't care how they do it, I just want Stacy Haiduk to stay.

Speaking of terrible hair, Mac's forest o'hair extensions need to go. It's not Mac and it doesn't suit CF.

The Mac-Billy kiss was hot, though. I think because of the way Billy kissed her.

Me too. Making her Patty would make it much easier to have her stay on canvas. If she was some other character, she would be turned into a psycho and eventually be killed off... and now I'm getting AMC rewrite flashbacks. I need to forget about that.

Exactly. After the Paul scene, I think they know most of the more astute viewers will guess it. And those who aren't as knowledgeable about Y&R history (newer viewers, who aren't on the internet) can still keep guessing.

pretty much.

and yes the story is somewhat who is this mary jane? but IMHO right now its much more about mary jane/whoever she really is as a character. establishing her. showing her sdes and layers and depth. shes far from some villian of the moment, and the story also is about victors plan to hurt jack.

when it comes out that mary jane is patty/whoever then they can play that beat. but the overall focus of the story isnt who is this women?

and i really dont think they are trying to fool us and dont expect us to know who she is, Y&R isnt about shock. its about character. and they are doing it well!

Unless, of course, the expectation was not to have us suspect she's Patty, but that she could be one of a number of women Paul, Victor, and even Jack have tangled with before. ;)

Not necessarily. She still could be Patty, and she still could go completely psycho and get killed off in the end. IMO, the fact that she would be Paul's sister and Heather's aunt guarantees nothing.

I may giving them too much credit but i dont think they think that we are that stupid.

The women, from the Paul scene, would have to be someone Paul has a connection with that has reason to go after Jack. Who, aside from Patty, would that be?

Total word. :)

There are a lot of viewers out there who don't even know who Mari Jo or Patty or Diane or Isabella even are. And viewers who know who Isabella and Diane are, but not Patty and Mari Jo, or any combination of the above. So for them, there will be an added surprise whenever this gets revealed. And for those like the people on this board who have watched Y&R for years, there's just another dimension to the story.

    • Thank you for the info about SFT related to EON. I thought about adding SFT to my watch list, but I don't know if it's the kind of soap for me. I know very little about it except for a few of the actors and that it was on two different networks. I also know based on this board or somewhere else that the two Lizas both died young from cancer. Warms my heart to see so many EON people on SFT because they are such good performers and I wish they had been moved to other shows. Perhaps, they were and I'm just not aware of it.
    • There was a few times when Silk Press Sheila came into her apartment after going grocery shopping.. she could have been unloading her items as she talked to Eva or Ted and saw a few of the products on the counter that are P & G products.
    • I enjoyed today's show. I liked seeing Mona again and her confronting both Eva and Leslie. I did feel for Eva, especially at the end of their confrontation, when Mona said "Good", when Eva mentioning losing everybody she cared about. Though, I can understand Mona's anger and Leslie deserved every bit of her ire. Both Leslie/Eva betrayed her especially Leslie. Mona put her both her professional and personal relationships with the Duprees on the line and what Leslie/Eva did put her in an awkward position. Speaking of Leslie she continues to act trifling and caring only about herself and her needs. At this point, it only seems like she cares about herself and wanting Ted for herself. I'm not even sure how if her feelings for Mona were even sincere, though she called out about people turning against her after Mona left. I have yet to see Leslie really display that she sincerely cares about anyone, and I do think that needs to change at some point. I enjoyed Nicole and her scenes today with Leslie/her children. I also like that Martin took a more sensible approach regarding how the family should handle Eva. He did straight up acknowledge she was his sister, and it seemed like he was opened to up to accepting her. I think he will be among the first in the family to soften towards/accept her. And in spite of the way she was introduced into their lives, he will end up being happy to have two little sisters. I wonder again about Kat/Eva being twins/Eva being Nicole, when Martin/Kat brought up them being the same age and Kat even used the word "twins" in disbelief, when Martin suggested they shared a connection from the beginning.
    • LOL! They did show a Pantene and Dawn commercial today. Image them incorporating those into the show. 
    • He joined Julian in Bermuda when he getting a divorce from Ivy. And, was the one who tricked Theresa and Julian in to believing that they had gotten married there. That would be nice.  That was such a good book, and it was too bad that the show retconned it so much. I still have my copy somewhere.
    • Instead of Febreze, Eva pulled a few tissues of Puffs and cried into them. Hayley comes in with a pack of Always and is like "Well, Bill turns out I'm not pregnant." Andre and Derek sharing a bottle of Pepto after eating Ashley's cooking. Vernon and Anita drinking up their Metamucil. 
    •   I liked the actress who played Tina. She was not the typical soap hire. I hadn't thought of her in many years until I saw a Spauldingfield video of her. It makes sense if they were planning to make her Frank's daughter as she was tied to the Coopers and nothing else was done with her beyond singing and the relationship with Marcus that Rauch never cared about. David was hurt by Monti Sharp leaving the role. I don't blame Monti for leaving, as he was getting less and less to do, but Russell Curry was a very generic actor was too old for the part. Yes, black don't crack, but he was nearly 40. When David returns at the end of the decade they cast an actor who was a little too young, which just shows how little interest the show had in the character or black characters in general (and random recasting would return with the Boudreauxs). Marcus is a character who got a lot of buzz early on and then the show lost interest (again).  Anyway, if you stay watching, be warned that the Hart/Dinah/Roger stuff gets worse and worse. Luckily you don't have the same lengthy ties to the show so it may be OK for you. It made me feel a bit sick at the time. Thanks for giving more info. And to @DeeVee and @P.J. as well. I suppose there were tiers of people who were seen as disposable, and Eve was shielded for a time due to that tier. Once they were clearly getting rid of characters like Justin or Amanda, then she was also on that list (I know she left before they did but it wasn't that long before). Characters like Eve, quiet, able to be used in many avenues, are important for community, or they should be, although she had clearly reached a natural end. The problem is no one really replaced her - all the characters who were likely seen as dull were shipped out from 83-85, and we were left with an unbalanced canvas (and characters who were meant to be exciting but were still dull, like Calla, Simon, et al).

    • I just find her obnoxious and I need somebody to start checking her (other than Bill) without couching it in you’re so strong and wonderful and Bill did you so wrong. Even Anita pulls punches with her. Her personality would definitely rub some people the wrong way and I hope once the canvas evolves beyond Dupreeland, she gets some adversaries who aren’t villains or 90-lb. weaklings like Haley.
    • Wow.... Anita and Dani are the ultimate symbol of mean girls.   I hate to tell this to Dani... but Eva's ability to do hair is a much more coveted job and skill than Dani's modeling.   I doubt Dani could cut it if she lost her money and was truly forced to start over from square 1.
