While an airdate isn't specified, the photos CBS released indicate "Thanksgiving," so he can either air next week or after Thanksgiving. It would make sense for it to be Wednesday, November 22, since Y&R is airing a repeat from 1993 on Thursday and is preempted for sports on Friday.

That’s awesome!!  granted we have this one already but I’m glad at least Y&R continues to deliver with its classics!

Personally, I thought Victoria and Ryan were HOT HOT HOT! Cole, while hot himself, was a bore with Victoria. I couldn't wait for Victoria to cheat on him with Ryan. I HATED when they killed Ryan off. Scott Reeves can still get it today!!!!

I personally wanted Ryan and Jill to have an affair with each other there in the mid-90’s as the sexual tension was through the roof between the two lol. I think the show was going to go there in 1996 but kind of backed off, which is disappointing as it was at time when Jill was having personal issues with Nina and professional issues with Victoria.

Thanks!! Obviously interesting the episode has Eve in it.

@YRfan23 Is this episode where Traci got really NASTY to Lauren, leading Lauren to think Traci was one sending her the puzzle pieces? 

Haha yes it is!  and Traci shows no remorse nor mentions Lauren’s trouble with Sheila, or losing a baby she thought was hers…

I hope for Christmas they show show us the episode where Eve dies in December 1993 or something with her from 80-83…that seems unlikely sadly…

I'm not super thrilled about Cole being involved with this storyline, but happy he's back! If he *is* involved, I really hope it's not as a bad guy, the same way they turned Stitch and JT into insta-villains.

FYI this Feb. 4, 1993 episode would air
on Global-Canada on Wed. Nov. 22.
In USA it airs Thurs. Nov. 23 after the Thanksgiving Day parade in most timezones. But be aware:
In the Pacific timezone the parade will override Y&R in some  markets.  Also your local community might have special Thanksgiving events televised that override Y&R.   You can try to find it on another channel or on CBS.com or paramount plus that evening.  I suggest grabbing it off the Global website if you can, just in case your local channel in the USA doesn't carry it.

I'm starting to think Claire might be baby Eve so I say it's either Jordan stole her as a baby or Cole wanted her raised away from the Newman's?

The last 4th of July classic wasn't on CBS or Paramount unfortunately (edit: I don't have Paramount but it definitely wasn't on CBS so just assuming). Hopefully they will be this time or someone will capture this from Global. Although this episode is around it's nice having an HD copy.

Kudos to Y&R-this story seems to be getting a lot of attention.

However, it will probably amount to nothing.

I get a feeling Cole will be innocent in all of this.

If Claire is Eve I will personally lure Josh Griffith to an isolated cottage and keep him captive.

We'll see. The bringing back of dead babies thing is not really my vibe. I can't really imagine a scene with AH's Victoria being reunited with the girl that used to play Abby only as her daughter, lol.

I wish they’d strike a deal with Heather T. To return for like a week to make these scenes work

Nothing?! Why, I bet Aunt Jordan owns a huge multinational conglomerate, she'll be killed off and leave the company to Nikki, to be merged with Newman-Kirsten-McCall-Locke enterprises in a board meeting at Crimson Lights. But who will run it? Adam, Victoria, or Nick?!

 

Would you call THAT boring? I bet they will even text about the merger from the Athletic Club bar and discuss it over drinks at the jazz club! This story could change everything! Victor might even hire Sally to decorate the offices but then FIRE her.

 

(On a serious note, even though they have crossed into Season 51, I am glad they are still bringing back old favorites for the 50th).

Brilliant! You really get the show. You have the vision to be Y&R's next headwriter..

Don't forget that there will be multiple job shifting happening as top execs are poached from one company to another.

 

The closing credits from Feb. 4, 1993:
Produced by David Shaughnessy
Written by Bill Bell, Kay Alden, Jack Smith, and "Eric L. Roberts".

(I gather "Eric L. Roberts" refers to the triad of writers @Broderick described
on page 819 of the "Y&R: Old Articles" thread.)

Historians -- soapoperaNews.net is saying
Feb. 4, 1993 was episode #5044. 
Does anyone have an episode number chart from that time period?
I remember reading a French chart here a few years ago but I wouldn't know where to find it now.
