Why would Mariah be CK in a dual role? Tyler said they were similar not that they were doppelgangers.

There has been much speculation about whether CK will play dual roles. It's possible, I suppose. I am interested to see if the speculation was founded.

Mariah has the same tattoo on her wrist that CK does. Could be coincidence.

The only scenes I enjoyed today were Jill/Billy/Victoria. It felt like bad old times again waiting for the Cane/Colin/Jill scenes to end and thinking that Cane and Colin are taking away screen time from my favorites. Similar thing with the stunt casting with Tuttera and Neil. Very MABish. I wanted to post this last night when I watched it but it's not much fun discussing the day ahead in spoiler tags.

I am not feeling Tutera doing the Neslie wedding either. However, my mother LOVES it. It's believable being that he is a big name in the business and Neil and Leslie are wealthy folks. However, it would be better if it were a couple with some staying power. I might be able to get into the novelty of it of all. For as much as I want to love Neslie, I don't. And all this drama surrounding her marrying him will only payoff if she cancels or stands him up at the alter. Hopefully, she is already married to someone else who shows up to crash it or she and tyler or running a scam and she feels bad so she doesn't want to go through with it. Otherwise, it is a waste of my time. I gaurantee she marries him though and this is just some manufactured drama that will mean nothing in the grande scheme of things. I hate when the writers do this for the Winters that is NOT a story at all.

I can't stand Cane and Colin sharing scenes alone. At least with Lily and Jill, I feel like someone I care about is getting airtime. And all Cane's finger wagging annoyed me. He is castigating his father for a scheme (kidnapping kids) that he fully participated in himself. It's all very nauseating. If Lily can be with him, then why can't Jill be with Colin. It's the same side of the same coin.

Tristan Rogers is annoying... He needs to tone down the giggles and roving eyes. he looks sauced or high. He played it that way on GH. His acting chops are definitely diminished.

Well Y and R had its biggest week since 2008 for the Delia climax almost 5.73 million. JFP is having the biggest laugh. I swear this bitch has more lives then anyone. She will be at y and r for years. I can hear JFP saying to MAB to suck it bit@@ch.

Climax ratings don't mean anything, especially if the show dips back down to where it was. They're special circumstances.

Jill kissing Billy's head was amazing. I hope they write him as her son now because they haven't in years. It was like their old dynamic of animosity just faded away over night. Love it!

The writing for them today was really good. I liked the flashbacks. Still think David Tom is horrible. Jess was very good. She exudes a warmth with Tom I don't believe I've seen before.

Abby drives me nuts. How old is she supposed to be? 14?

And Colin is not my favorite. But the "judicial miracle" doesn't bother me. After the handwaving other writers pull on other soaps, this is nothing.

I can't even remember Cynthia Watros's character's name. She's Annie Dutton. But I like her.

I know she has a wrist tat. Wasn't that tattooed lady following them around a white woman? It definitely wasn't CK.

She has tats on both wrists - one is a sun tat.

Looked like she could have been CK to me. Skin color, the way she walked. If it was a white woman, she was very tanned.

Tyler asked Mariah if she was still in town on the phone today. I thought that was weird.

The show is back in the dumps again. Today's episode was dull as dishwater. The only intriguing part was them setting up the Kelly/Billy/Victoria/Stitch quad. That seems to be moving along at an even pace, the rest of the stories are taking entirely too long to get the point. Hopefully we will finally see Mariah tomorrow. I'm almost to the point where I don't care.

And the colin mess doesn't deserve any more of my time so that's all I'm going to say about it.

So Abby's uncle was just in a car crash that killed her evil half brother that accidentally killed her little cousin, and her biggest concern is off screen Mariah and going to work; not checking on either of her families?

The tattooed wrist they showed at Christmas was a tanned woman but definitely lighter then CK.

It doesn't feel like Y&R to me because there is no real business storylines. These life tragedies are fine but they need the overarching business story to tie all the cast of characters and stories together. Bonaventure doesn't do it. For example: I can't believe that companies haven't pulled their products from Fenmore's with all their drama going on. Both Jack and Victor should be at least contemplating it with one pulling from and the other staying with..and this should affect each companies bottom line. I think most of us can write this stuff in our sleep. The writers should be able to do so as well. Matter of fact, Devon should be looking to add some boutique to the GCAC that would provide competition for Fenmore's, Jackie M maybe (cross over with B&B, Marcus is his cousin)....maybe even try to use his money to buy political clout to make gambling legal in Wisconsin so he can add a casino. Then have some organized crime members try to take him out to keep it from becoming legal (also works being that they already have the mob story happening). So many business type things can be done on this show and the writers don't even try. All we get is Jack versus Victor over some baby or one trying to take the other's company.

I totally agree. Y&R has had a couple of good episodes with the Billy/Adam climax, but overall this show feels lost, doesn't feel like Y&R at all. The other 3 soaps seem to know what they are (even if I don't like the writing), this one doesn't.
