Brutal Betrayals and Stunning Revelations On The Young and the Restless!
Courtesy/CBS
Next week on The Young and the Restless look for some game-changing moments as the story picks-up from Friday’s cliffhanger!
Viewers witnessed Avery (Jessica Collins) accidentally shoving Joe (Scott Elrod) off a balcony, Dylan (Steve Burton) telling Sharon (Sharon Case) that evidence points to her murdering Austin (Matthew Atkinson), and Jack (Peter Bergman) and Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) on their way to be married, but away from Genoa City and everyone they know.
In this newly released promo from CBS Daytime the images and the themes for next week’s episodes reveal stunning revelations and brutal betrayals! First, we see Joe on a stretcher with his neck immobilized, then a surveillance tape, an upset and beside herself Sharon (Sharon Case) who at one points looks to be chloroformed , someone in shackles, Billy (Burgess Jenkins) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) kissing, a half naked Adam (Justin Hartley) with Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), and Ashley (Eileen Davidson) and Billy finding out who hacked their server, and Victor (Eric Braeden) laughing oh-so-gleefully!
Watch the promo after the jump! Then let us know what you think will happen … and what you hope will happen with these storylines next week on The Young and the Restless!
Next week looks like a big week. Will definitely watch. Y&R feels like sweeps right now. Y&R ain’t boring anymore. I have been enjoying the show.
Im not a regular viewer but i find myself tuning in more…i mostly watch Days and GH but right now those two shows arent as interesting as Y&R…that could change of course but im enjoying it at the moment…Y&R is the more down to earth soap of the remaining four and most likely why it stays at number one!!!
Yes Robert, next wk does look good.I have every intention of watching it lol. (ON ANOTHER NOTE) I think Austin is alive, We shall see.
Me too! This is the best it’s been in years!
Looks good……………….
Yeah, it looks to be an ‘action’ week, I guess. I would like some answers, though.
This is going to make me sound callous, but when Joe took that tumble off the balcony? Well, I could not contain my laughter. Oh, c’mon…..are they kidding me? How can a girl/woman be so strong (I’d like to know her work-out-regimen) and forceful as to push him over the balcony? I think it’s hilariously ridiculous. HaHa!!!!! Well, I guess Joe was caught off guard? In the throes of drunken passion? LOL.
I tried pushing my husband as hard as I could; he didn’t even budge. My husband and he seem to be the same height and weight……soooooo unrealistic.
Well, after all it is said and done, I am enjoying all the storylines….I anxiously await for the skies to open up and the storm(s) descend upon Genoa City, fast and furious….LOL.
PS. I thought Adam was about to spill, confess , tell-all to Chelsea. ……do it Adam; she will not give you away, I’m sure of it.
Did Sharon do it? Everything points to her. Waaaay too simple. Sure, blame the crazy lady. Kelly ‘done’ it! Makes sense, no? I mean, she is dead, so who will blame her? Victor is behind the whole thing….but, would he go so far as to cause his grandchildren and daughter mental, emotional, and physical pain for his diabolical schemes? Sure, he would.
I also thought it could have been Ben. But, Stitch has an itch for Abby. Would he hurt her? Yeah!
Then, there’s Kyle. He has the best motive, in my opinion. He wanted/wants Summer….what better reason than THAT to eliminate the husband?
If u know that push is coming of course that person can resist but if u don’t well u saw what will happen. Actually, Avery should have done it long time ago and the writers really made her look weak so all I can say welcome back Avery. Knowing the writers Avery’s ex will milk it to the limit!
Victor is definitely up to something big, but I don’t think for a minute it has anything to do with Austin and Courtney being killed.
I have only two theories, the whole cabin thing is kevin’s dream for his blog and the mystery person in the confessional is not anyone who is currently on the show. Someone from the distant past maybe?
Victor did tell that person, “no one must know I know you”.
Avery did push him very hard and he could have been tipsy/caught off guard. I like how all the sudden the “Club” suites now have balcony’s! Lets just hope when Joe took his header out the window Summer was walking underneath it!
I agree with all your points except one… Victor would never Kill or have anyone kill someone that his family loves…wouldnt happen…
I do not think Kelly is dead. Victor set the whole thing up.
Ha. Yeah, Joe even did a back-flip right over the railing.
Apparently Avery has super powers.
She should take over Summer’s nickname of Super Girl.
Speaking of strength of another kind, totally agree about Sharon.
Tired of the writers making her too consistently the crazy, weak
one. Let Sharon find her strength and power!
Oh, CeeCee…YOU WONERFULLY BAD GIRL, YOU…LOL!!!!! Any-hoo, as far as I’m concerned, that Avery chick (accidentally) pushed the WRONG DUDE off of that so-called balcony…O-K-A-Y!!!!! Instead, it should have been that PLASTIC AND WOODEN Dylan that should have been thrown over that balcony and N-O-T that STUDLY AND DREAMY Joe…THANK YOU!!!!! Avery=DUMB WOMAN!!!!!!!
Later, CeeCee. Peace.
@Jessie.
Hi, Jessie.
Yes, I know Kelly is not dead…we surmised that weeks ago. I guess my weak attempt at sarcasm fell short. What I tried to impart is that because everyone thinks Kelly is dead, it would be a very simple feat for her to have killed two people, through Victor’s machinations, and make anyone else the culprit.
Regardless how we look at this, Jessie, you are right…I smell a rat also…Victor!
@Timmm
Lol….Just Summer, Timmm?……how about, Victor, Sage, Billy…uhmmmm, let me think….who else? Oh, yeah, Jack, …..
You really think Avery has that much strength in her, Timmm. I do have my doubts. Even if Joe were tipsy, no way could he have done a flip and a cartwheel over the balcony. .unless he’s an acrobat.
@nuffsaid.
I suppose…but he is a big guy. The whole incident just struck me as hilarious. I’m dying to see what the point is? Someone suggested that Joe will be in a wheelchair and Avery will be so solicitous and regretful that she will realize her love for him is still there, buried somewhere in her ‘nether’ regions? Too funny.
As Harry pointed out…there must be something in Avery’s cupcakes, or little tortes?
CeeCee,
Quick correction: The correct spelling of the word is ‘wonderfully’. Sorry about that. Girlfriend…at times, I feel like I type WAY TOO FAST!!!!! Therefore, I end up getting ahead of myself. Yep.
Take care, CeeCee. Peace.
Well you certainly can’t say Y&R is boring. I’m actually really enjoying the show since Chuck Pratt took over. Now, I’m not saying I enjoy his storytelling style, and the work he did on AMC was awful. But the murder mystery storyline is unpredictable, intriguing and gives Y&R the jolt of excitement it needed after the past few years of slow-paced, dull stories. Hopefully this keeps up and Pratt continues doing a good job, though I’m a little apprehensive after his hack-job of AMC.
I give him a high five for firing Kelli Goss. If he never does anything good, at least he did that.
I approach with caution, too, Jimmy. We shall see, no?
Not pleased with Sharon being implicated in the murder. Really? Please stop making Sharon the whipping boy of Genoa City. It is about time for some redemption and renewal with this character. Maybe this story line will lead to that. Hope so.
They need to have her mother come into town with some amazing news about her father or something. I agree. I am so tired of Sharon being the “whipping boy.” It’s one thing to give her bipolar disease to explain all the nuttiness that has gone on since Cassie died, but enough is enough. Get this girl a backbone and strengthen her.
The character of Sharon has been around longer than Phyllis, yet Phyllis doesn’t have these character flaws. It’s not fair.
I do hope billy & victoria get back 2gether I can’t believe how stupid Avery is to support Joe’s cause & go 2his suite thinking nothing wud happen
Why would anyone support Billy and Victoria getting back together…I know its a Soap but multiple affairs and getting her
Kidnapped and almost killed reeks of unrealilistic… My family
Would never support reuniting with someone that did that to me..
In fact they would do everything to stop it..The only one that
Realizes this is Victor…
Y&R can be very boring but Phyllis comeback started the upward trend again, however Neil’s storyline is recycled, being a drunk again, and I am over it.
Yeah, Neil and Nikki, the town drunks. I wonder when Nikki’s turn will be?… Recycling is right…over and over and over and over….
The ONLY part of Neil’s drunk story I enjoyed, after the long, cold winter of his being blind, was his commiserating with Nikki. But they should have left it at that. Just a one-time occurrence and gotten them both into rehab.
Don’t tell me they could not afford rehab. I see the commercials here in Los Angeles EVERY DAY for Promises and especially Cliffside Malibu. I have a friend who is an addiction specialist and he told me these facilities now take insurance. So what is the problem for Nikki and Neil? Ha! Ha!
Totes agree. Really enjoying the show now. Lots of unpredictability and excitement! Its #1 for a reason.
Well I’m not loving Y&R at the moment, but I am not hating it either. It just feels off but I can’t put my finger on what it is. I know I don’t like Sharon losing it again. She is bipolar not a cold blooded killer, so she is not the killer, so why do we have to watch her lose her marbles thinking she might be– she was already been gaslighted by Victor and framed for Skye’s murder, so do we really have to see her go through it again. The same with Victor- honestly can’t writers find something else for this character to do than go after Jack and Jabot– we had to watch for years as Jack tried to get his company back from Victor, now it looks like we are going to have to watch that all again, when Victor takes Jabot away, or is given Jabot — do we really have to see it again?
All they need to do now is take Patty and Shelia out of moth balls, and we redo their stories over too– maybe that is what is off– I’m having deja vu that I’ve seen all this before except it was done better.
Please don’t put those two nutjobs names out in the air, I will come unglued if either one of them comes back. They are sooooo beyond yesterday.
There is no way sharon is capable of moving bodies around, but she has a knack for making herself look guilty.
And yet, we’re getting ready for TWO dopplegangers on Y&R……….again! We did that with Patty/whatever the psychiatrists name was and Lauren. Retread! Unoriginal! However, it could give Peter Bergman (Jack) some meaty material to work with!
This is GH wearing a mask and trying to convince everyone its Y&R…lol
They wish– no this is just Y&R telling stories they already told before but better.
Actually you might be right, after watching today’s show, tomorrow’s in the States
this could be GH– GH has Fluke; now Y&R has?????? No Spoilers, but definitely watch Tuesday’s show
Pratt Y&R may try to be as GH, but its not even close..
GH can write great suspenseful drama Y&R never could write anything exciting lol
Its love gone wrong and people with diseases dying and jack and victor fighting.
nonetheless!
I do like the Nancy Drew mystery.. silly as it is and nowhere near intense or thrilling, its fun…
Pratt worked on Santa Barbara didn’t he? I thought I heard he did.
Well I also remember a couple of doppleganger stories there. Wash, rinse, repeat. Let’s not bother trying to be creative. Let’s just do the same old thing and [hope] the viewers are too stupid to realize it.
Can’t wait till Monday,looks like the story lines are really getting exciting.
Y&R has really picked up the pace on several stories and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. Some are a bit farfetched, but that’s what makes soaps fun!
I hope the Adam Newman reveal won’t be too long in the making. I’d hate for that to be anticlimactic.
I think Kyle is the one who has been meeting with Victor. Sharon didn’t kill anyone that’s too obvious. Joe is going to be paralyzed and Avery will go back to him out of guilt. I think Kyle might have killed Austin so he could have Summer back. But, do we really know that Austin is dead. Maybe Austin killed Courteny.
I thought someone told me because I am not watching like I was so this is strictly hear say that Victor said we can’t let anyone know we know each other??? So I was thinking it is Sage maybe who knows but Kyle is not only wearing diapers almost again but now I read he has an attitude towards his Dad does not want to work at Jabot where is this stuff coming from. Of course on what planet does a woman with a mental illness break into a lab and chane paternity results. Oh and Sharon is. Also able to drag two bodies and put them in a closet I am also sure she is able to leap tall buildings ! What does this woman weigh 120 lbs man that must be strong bi polar muscle building meds she is on.
Thats what I was thinking, they did a recast on Kyle AND gave him a new personality. He is being a dick towards Jack and that just doesnt jive. Jack is a good man and it doesnt make sense that Kyle resents him or at the very least, doesnt respect him. Bring back the Michael J. Fox looking Kyle. He was GREAT!
What is the end game for the character of Kyle if he is made a murderer? I could understand a split from reality since his own mother was murdered, but I think in the grand scheme of things, Kyle is just another red herring with major attitude who needs a good spanking. Who does the little pipsqueak think he is talking to Sharon (an adult) like that?!
I think all of you make good points. After watching yesterday’s episode and seeing “Double Jacks” I really don’t know what to think. Yes, Victor did say, “we can’t let people know we know each other.” I detest Victor Newman. Always says, “it’s for the good of my family.” or “it’s just business.” In real life somebody would have put a bullet in him long ago. Also, the security at the Newman Ranch sucks. I have better security in my apartment building! Also, what did Courtney find that would cause her to go to the cabin instead of her wedding. Oh, right, she was abducted from the police station. Disposing of Austin’s body and taking Courtney out of the GCP and hauling her to the cabin and putting her in the closet….all I can say is I would like to be drinking whatever Sharon is drinking. Also, after yesterday’s episode I do agree that Kyle is a red herring but that doesn’t keep him from being beyond creepy. I am still wondering if Austin is really dead. Maybe he will be the one to expose Victor and his plot against Jack and will be everyone’s hero! Just maybe, really stretching it, Courtney is alive and working with Austin. There are drugs that would accomplish this. I’m going to sign off before I rewrite the whole show. Ideas welcome.
What was that? Tiny little Betty Crocker in high heels barely pushes Joe and his two hundred pound athletic body goes flying over the railing?
I know Joe is a push over but this is ridiculous.
What the heck is Betty Crocker putting in her cupcakes?
It looked more like Joe decided to kill himself and he jumped. I laughed out loud.
The entire scene…the push/shove, the fact that Joe did not fall backwards…I don’t know…it just defies the law of physics. It is a soap, I get it. We are not supposed to scrutinize these facts/details that make no sense. I’ll shut up now.
It reminds me of a few years ago when Nick was taking Victoria to her house from the Halloween party. Joshua Morrow said he and the director did not know how to get Victoria to the door so Billy Miller could show up in the Santa suit so they just left her at the door step, DRUNK, fumbling for her keys and Nick took off.
It sounds like these directors need to watch some real directors or don’t even bother with these scenes.
Did you notice how low that balcony wall was? That’s a safety hazard for sure. I’m surprised someone doesn’t fall over it everyday.
Yes, at least I did, Sammie. Next time we see that wall it will probably be a lot higher; adding more mystery to the tumble.LOL.
And along comes Dylan…the hero; the white knight on his white steed….the everywhere man. Why is he always in the midst of things? The savior of many a damsel in distress. My grandmother calls him AJAX; from the 60’s commercial. Who shall he save first? Sharon or Avery?…..who is the dirtiest?…..what a predicament!
And, speaking of Sharon, is it possible that she is beginning to doubt herself? Mr. HAND with the white cloth doused with chloroform (I’m assuming) appeared again, so we know Sharon is not the killer. But, Victor is trying very hard to make it look that way. Oh, you guys don’t think he has a hand in all this?
Here goes Fluke all over again.
Shes top heavy Harry! Thats her secret!
Hey, Timmm…..can’t help what God gave us girls…..Lol…hard to buy buttoned down tops.
So top heavy that she was, not only able to push him backward, but also turn him so he dove into that dumpster instead of on his back (I saw the screen caps).
They must have some sort of “grandfather” exception like some old hotels in Hawaii to explain such a low balcony. 😉
Bizarre. It looked like a scene from a cartoon.
It was a cartoon…right out of the Roadrunner…lol
I don’t believe he ever did a hack job on AMC it was going down the hill by the time he got there.The man is a genius. He must be putting in 24-7 to come up with all these great story lines.Before he came on board Y&R was snooze city instead of Genoa City, he gave it life. Everyone is going to have their likes & dislikes but it’s still great drama. I would like to see more of Adam/Gabriel, Kevin & Mariah a lot less of Summer, give Sharon some strength and stop making her a door mat for everyone. That’s my wish list. What’s your’s?
I’d like to see Kay Alden and John F. Smith return as head-writers and Edward Scott take back the reins as executive producer so we could get back to real quality character driven storytelling.
A lot of us would like to see that, but unfortunately it looks like the patients are running the asylum so the odds of that ever happening are next to nil—
I have watched some of this, and it’s just plain stupid. The scripts are just so poorly written, characters are so out of character, that you know someone with little or no knowledge is penning the show now. This isn’t my mother’s Y&R, and quite frankly, isn’t mine either.
Pratt’s storytelling has been hit and miss for me so far. I will say that IMO his huge killer on the loose story that has sucked in almost the entire cast has been one big swing and a miss.
Right now its a whodunit ? concerning Austin. Abby and Stitch, have an eye for each other. I wonder when Adam, will reveal his true id ? I think Kyle is guilty of something lol ! Poor Joe, but no better for him.
lol ..
it’s a silly ”whodunit..
reminds me of the Nancy Drew mysteries or the Hardy Boys..
The only whodunit I am interested in is which writer is responsible for which storyline, because I’d like to address them with their horrific storytelling process.
poor sharon case!! everytime she s given an oppurtunity to really strike gold, new writers come in and give her a pile of shit to act through, but she does it with everything she s got!!!
last years writers had her gaslighted by her actual twin daughter and instead of playing it out with mariah we instead get sharon back as looney tunes and implicated for a murder she would never commit because the victim means nothing to her! it would have more intrsting had mariah cheated with austin and framed instead shes background with kevin, who really needs to go! mariah is nowhere these days and has had next to no scenes with her mom! what about sharon and phyliss?!
now all week we get are sharon and dylan, overkill.
last time sharon case was forced to play out a disgusting and uncomfortable affair with her father figure victor has she was in the middle of a hot story with adam.
sharon case deserves the award for making shit smell like roses.
#love sharon case!!!!
I think I’ll add this to the mix: Victor’s mysterious alliance is with Colin. Victor did say it was important no one was aware they knew each other. And didn’t the actor who plays Colin say (months ago) he was getting ready for a “juicy” story?
Ron, this is an excellent guess and I hope your right. Two daytime legends teaming up!
That would be wonderful, but remember who we are dealing with here. They are wasting Tristan Rogers. I used to love when he was on and now I am bored. They do not know what to do with the fine actors they have. They would rather prop the show with the Scooby “kids” (i.e., Summer). Blech.
So here’s a theory: The killer is the girl Nicolas caused to break her neck in high school. Austin uncovered the cover up and teamed up with her to fake his murder. Then killed both of Nicolas ‘ kids true loves, because she could never find true love after Nick and the accident
Great idea! It does seem that story came from “out of no where” and would fit in nicely here… we’ll see!
Can’t take the credit . … I read it youtube in the comments section after watching an episode ….another person had the idea that Victor put the prints on the crowbar
Of course, jojo. Anything evi….any catastrophe…..even inclement, bad weather is always Victor’s fault. I blame him for everything. Perhaps the power is in his mustache?
Evil
Son of a Stitch looked like a complete goof last week at the Abbott cabin when Paul showed up and he was questioning those kids. Its like a creepy 40 something guy hanging out a nightclub! I hope Stitch is the killer and goes to jail for a long time. How stupid is Victoria for letting Stitch alone with Shabby after she screwed Austin behind Summer’s back! For the most part I’m enjoying Prince Charles on the EP throne but lets be a little more realistic. 2015 has been much better so far than 2014!
Agreed, Timmm. I am liking Y&R much more recently. I can even overlook some characters that I would LOVE to to beat up…or push over the balcony.
Is Kyle really Austin wearing a mask…or have i overdosed on GHs Fluke storyline?…lol
I look forward to each and every episode. Loving it.
I feel lately the writing is so predictable, I knew something was going to happen to both Courtney and Joe. Courtney with the rush wedding, Noah never once gave viewers the incline that he was ready to settle down, and Avery out of the blue disses Dylan and goes to Joe’s room, something was going down.. The Adam recast was a wonderful choice and can’t wait for reveal party!! Victors talking to….Shelia??? Patty Williams…..Kyle??? dying to know. Give Sharon a break.
We all know.. a wedding can not happen without some type of tragedy drama..
I knew they would never make it to the ”I do” ..
Avery is a hell of a lot stronger than she looks. Now that was bad soap opera.
No way could Avery’s first poke/shove push a big man as Joe over a waist high balcony LOL ..
gotta love the fantasy .. cuz not going to happen in the real world..
I disagree. Joe is a tall guy. The “Balcony” was low. If you are not prepared for a push, this could happen. Avery did push him hard and he was at ease and only thinking about kissing Avery. Yes, I believe this. The only odd thing is we have never seen a balcony before at the Club.
I think the person who is the killer is the brother of the girl who dived off the balcony. It is either her, or a brother. The reason is now that Sharon told the truth and if that were to come out either the girl or the brother would be upset because the money Money being paid by Victor would stop. I think either one of them are a member of the police force. They are not on camera yet but slowly you will see them show up as a member of the police force. The show is not going to get rid of any of the cast that is on screen now. They all have a high q rating
I have thought the killer at least had access to the police station computer.
They should make it Kevin or at least should have made this WHOLE freakin’ debacle his Platosphere storytelling like many fine viewers speculated. THAT would have been REAL storytelling, but that is too smart for the current regime.
Kevin, like Sharon, are two poor characters who seem to take one step forward in character development and then go back like a MILE. I don’t think any regime is ever going to make these characters mature so why not toss Kevin in as the killer, who had access to police files, and be done with him for good. Maybe he conspired with Sharon.
The actors deserve so much better.
If Kelly is the killer it cements Pratts title as worst soap scribe of all time, taking the title from Maria Bell.
Just keep it coming!! Lol
WOW. Looks good. I hope the killer story ends.
Does Chelsea have sex with Gabe to get back at Billy kissing Victoria? I’ll be watching.
@E Bush.
Victor would have someone hurt, banish or kill anyone a member of his family loved, if said person got in his way or if he simply hated him. Remember what he did to Billy? He had him locked up in a prison, languishing away on the other side of the world……just to name on. That was worse than death. Victor is depraved. He cannot help himself.
Wow…I really screwed that up…..typing without thinking…always in a hurry in the morning.
Bottom line? Victor could care less about anyone other than his family. What a Victor wants, Victor gets, in more ways than one. I think he, Sonny, Stefano and the Cassadines were all separated at birth.
I would like to commend everyone on this site for such good writing and well-thought-out ideas and points. You guys are a great bunch.
Include yourself in this bunch. Your writing is elegant, thoughtful and a tongue in cheek touch here and there!
Seriously, Sharon Case should be handed an Oscar for acting this sh*t they have been writing for her.
I think it could be Kyle that Victor is working with or maybe its Austin….
I also suspect Kyle….very possible. Austin didn’t even cross my mind, Rob. But, you know? That is an excellent point.
I just can’t figure out the point of all this. So much is going on that I will begin losing focus…just like the Fluke story.
What is this all about? I hope the wait is not long and torturous.
Would like to see Victor become the town pariah and lose everything including his business and contacts. He needs to realize how much damage he has done under the guise of protecting his family.
Detective Harding is your killer and framing Sharon why not does she not get blamed for everything? The person in the confessional is either Sage or a Jack look a like. This is just reading updates though I do have to admit to seeing Sharon rockin those red leather pants. I would say not to be surprised if Sage turns out to be that rewrite of Nicks past Sandra Allen why ele bring that stuff up.
Just realized it is probably Fenmore that actor is on Under The Dome and it got picked up again starts in June. Remember his Dad and Uncle have had problems with the law grubs in the genes!
Runs
Good point, Substitute.
Yes, leather is en vogue…..not that it ever disappears, but, it’s trending right now……and, Sharon has the perfect body to wear anything.
One must be careful with leather. Lauren broke it up by wearing just the leather top…she also looked great.
But, Chelsea? Lordy Lord, she wore a maroon leather dress that looked very similar to the leather sofa in my study. Yuck!!
You may be right about a Jack-look-alike as the killer……could be Kyle.
Why Detective Harding? The actor is busy on State of Affairs and has not been on since, what, New Year’s? To those just joining (if there are any), no one knows him. It has been MONTHS since he last aired so he is inconsequential. Not to mention, he has never really had much story, making him, again, inconsequential.
I will eat my words if I am wrong. I would love to be wrong because they wasted this great actor and they really should have given him a contract role while they had him, as should they with Ignacio Serricchio. What great looking guys who actually could ACT and they just let them twist in the wind.
If anything, it is an Austin look-a-like or really Austin. Maybe it is a woman. Hey, maybe it is Paul. He finally lost it. After this week’s “interrogations” with the Scooby Gang, I would believe anything. Throwing Dylan and Sharon into this farce and everyone disregarding the law has become ridiculous. Not to mention the way Paul has pursued this investigation. I am actually starting to miss Maria Arena Bell’s writing.
Yeah, Paul is acting like the fool he is. As I already stated, why is Dylan always smack in the middle of everything? The only reason would be to bring him and Sharon closer? Too bad, if that’s the case. I really wanted Sharon with Adam.
The Scooby Gang, indeed, Chrystie…..such a motley crew ….of idiot characters and amateur writing.
And, for the piece de resistance; Summer gets down with Kyle while her husband’s body is still warm in his grave?…..well, if he really is dead.
What if Sage has no ties to Nick at all? Maybe she is Skye back from the volcano in Hawaii. I don’t believe the story between Adam and Sage is over. I believe there is more there. She went along with Adam’s plan way too easily.
@jaybird.
Thanks, Jay. You are a wonderfully bad boy, yourself…? ‘Ain’t ‘ it wonderful to be wonderfully bad?
“Cool is the rule but sometimes Bad is Bad!”
Thanks, Timmm.
This show and its over used plots (a simile of all have been seen too many times before) is so pedestrian. When did Y&R become so simple and silly? Sad really.
So now theres a fake Jack?!?!?!
We gonna call him Fack, maybe he and Fluke can take the act on the road.
They couldn’t dumb down these shows any more if they tried, just pathetic.
If this Jack story leads to Victor being taken down, Ill see it through but if Victor gets away with this Y&R comes of the DVR for good.
Chuck Pratt just rang the first death knell.
Phelps rang the first death knell, the other idiot gets second.
Three strikes and this show is out!
aww c’mon..
Pratt is simply attempting to rob GH (story thief aha ..
Bravo to all those who “predicted” a Jack lookalike and Kelly’s resurrection. So, someone’s framing Sharon– lots of great ideas out there. But, boy, wasn’t the look on Kyle’s face in today’s episode with Sharon on the road and then in the ranch house just c-r-e-e-p-y? He really spooked me and got me thinking that he’s a “Victor’s Boy” thru and thru. But, I don’t think he killed anyone. I still think the killer is someone who’s not a “regular” cast member.
Oh, it was so obvious. I have speculated for weeks that there had to be a Jack doppleganger. It is the only way for Victor to get rid of Jack – to have the imposter do his bidding for him.
Beginning with the Valentine’s Day episodes, Y&R has been on a precipitous decline since Charles Pratt took over. Fans have endured some ATROCIOUS storylines at the hands of Lynn Marie Latham and Maria Arena Bell, but under Pratt Y&R is the worst it has ever been–the reliquary story notwithstanding. It was difficult enough to endure four recasts in a short period of time, along with the loss of Elizabeth Hendrickson. Now what he is doing with the remaining, familiar cast is character genocide. I watch out of unfailing loyalty to my show, but each day it is harder and harder to tune in. Get rid of Pratt now!

‘Brilliant Minds’ Officially Canceled After 2 Seasons at NBC; DAYS Alum Al Calderon, OLTL Alum Teddy Sears and Zachary Quinto Among the Cast
After languishing on the bubble for months, on Friday, NBC handed down the decision and canceled the medical drama Brilliant Minds after two seasons.
Brilliant Minds stars Zachary Quinto as neurology physician Oliver Wolf, who’s character and the series is inspired by the life and books of neurologist. Oliver Sacks. The series focuses on the medical mysteries of the mind, as Wolf a larger-than-life neurologist and his team of interns explore the last great frontier, the human mind, while grappling with their own relationships and mental health.
The final six episodes of what will now be the end of its second and final season were already set to air beginning on May 27, after being pulled off the network schedule in February as viewership saw a steep decline. Brilliant Minds second season became the lowest-rated drama on linear TV viewing, which didn’t bode well fo a network renewal, although it had its hard core fan base.

There are some exceptional notables in the cast along with the talented Quinto that includes Days of Our Lives alum, Al Calderon (ex-Javi Hernandez) who joined the series in its second season as Nurse Nico Silva, and One Life to Live alum, Teddy Sears (ex-Chad Bennett) who plays Wolf’s love interest and fellow physician, Dr. Josh Nichols.
The rest of the talented cast includes: Tamberla Perry, Ashleigh LaThrop, Alex MacNicoll, Aury Krebs, Spence Moore II, Donna Murphy, John Clarence Stewart, and Brian Altemus.
In an ironic twist of fate on Thursday, April 30, Days of Our Lives finally revealed the actor who was Al Calderon’s successor in the role of Javi, when they announced that actor Jacob Martinez had now stepped into the role. Since DAYS tapes ten months ahead of streaming new episode, Calderon left in the spring of 2025, but will be seen in the part for the final part this month, and then on June 20, Martinez debuts as Salem’s new Javi.
Taking to his Instagram with a sorrowful and heartfelt post on the Brilliant Minds cancellation was Teddy Sears who wrote, “Thank you, Brilliant Minds. I got the call today and I didn’t want to hear, but I knew that it would come, You have to be a particular vintage to quote Don Henley from memory, but that’s the line that came to mind earlier today after I got off the phone with our inimitable showrunner Michael Grassi who delivered the news that NBC has cancelled the series”.

Sears continued, “To say that I feel sad to be moving on from these stories, this character, and this cast and crew just doesn’t paint the entire picture. I’m sad, sure. But I’m also deeply grateful that I got hired to play this part, so proud of the stories we told, and the other actors I got to play alongside. I’m excited to see what comes next, what adventures await, and terrified to be without a professional home. A quick and heartfelt thank you to everyone, all over the globe, who found us and found themselves in us, in our characters and in our stories. We wouldn’t have been able to tell them without you. And we still have 6 fresh episodes yet to air, and I do hope you tune in enjoy the remainder of the series. They’re the best we’ve done.”
As he wrapped up his sentiments, Sears signed off with, “The more I know, the less I understand. All the things I figured out I have to learn again. I’ve been trying to get down to the heart of the matter. But everything changes…Thank you, Brilliant Minds.”
The medical drama was created and executive produced by Michael Grassi alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman, Lee Toland Krieger, DeMane Davis, Jasmine Russ, Henrik Bastin, Jonathan Cavendish, Andy Serkis and Shefali Malhoutra.

Taking to his Instagram to celebrate the nominations, GH’s Bennett, enthused, “3 Critic Choice Nominations! I’m so proud of the FINDING MR CHRISTMAS and to be in the company of all the legends in all these categories is so surreal! Congrats to Hallmark Channel and to our nominated cast and nominated show and everyone who made this magical show possible. This is crazy! This gives FMC 6 Critics Choice nominations in 2 years. Not bad for a little show on Hallmark Channel. What are your thoughts on our show?” Jumping first into the comment thread was one of his new GH co-stars, Dominic Zamprogna (Dante) who expressed, “Yeah buddy!!!🔥🔥”
In the series, Bennett, the host and co-creator spends eight weeks guiding 10 aspiring actors through a series of “festive face-offs” and acting challenges alongside actors like soap opera notables, Hunter King (ex-Summer, Y&R) and Alison Sweeney (Sami, DAYS). Along the way, they develop their skills and a bond with one another. The show, which is available on Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Plus, highlights LGBTQ+ representation with openly gay contestants vying to be the next Hallmark star.
It should be noted that Traitors received the most Critics Choice Real TV Award nominations with 6 nods, followed by Dancing with the Stars with 4.
Bennett is very familiar to daytime fans having started his career as JR Chandler on All My Children in 2000-2001, before landing the part of Aaron Samuels in the motion picture, Mean Girls in 2004 starring Lindsay Lohan, which would become his breakout performance.

General Hospital
‘General Hospital’s’ Kelly Thiebaud on Britt and Cassius Sibling Drama, But Who Will Ultimately Blow His Cover?
On the April 30 episode of General Hospital, Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) had some choice words and warning for her brother Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey) who has been masquerading as his twin, the very dead, Nathan West.
As the story has unfolded, viewers learned that Britt knew all along that when “Nathan” showed up in Port Charles seemingly resurrected with a missing 7 years of his life unexplained, that Cassius was taking his place.
Now in developments on today’s GH, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) is figuring out that this guy pretending to be Nathan is someone else, and Cassius learns from Britt, that Joss is not just a ditzy sorority girl as he claimed, but a WSB agent! The moment stuns Cassius. Are the walls about to close in on him and his charade?

Daytime Emmy winner, Kelly Thiebaud spoke to Soap Opera Digest, about the story point and getting the opportunity this time back at GH to work with Ryan Paevey, when she hadn’t had the chance to before.
BROTHERLY LOVE?
Thiebaud expressed on sharing scenes with Ryan Paevey, “It’s just been so wonderful to have him back and to actually work with him! When he first came onto the show (as Nathan at the end of 2013) I was kind of heading out — it was right towards the end of my contract, so we didn’t actually work together a ton. It’s been really refreshing and so much fun to really spend time together and get to know each other and work together. I think we have really great on-camera chemistry and banter with each other. I really enjoy working with him.”
With the stakes at an all-time, Thiebaud explained how she views her on-screen alter-ego’s involvement with her more hot-to-temper sibling and why Britt revealed the truth about Josslyn to him. “People finding out about Cassius would expose what she’s involved in and what she agreed to do,” explains Kelly “And now Josslyn is digging around, and she’s connected to Carly (Laura Wright) to Jason (Steve Burton) and that whole dynamic! It’s messy!”
BRITT’S MURKY FUTURE
Britt has currently also reached her breaking point with Jason being carted away by the WSB, Rocco (Finn Carr), the child she gave birth to, shooting Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) to protect her and Jason, Marco (Adrian Anchondo) being killed after trying to help her, and Cullum holding over her head getting her Huntington’s disease medication to control her symptoms, while blackmailing her into finishing the research on her father, Cesar Faison’s, final project. Thiebaud summed it up best for Britt right now, sharing, “It’s been a really tough time for her.”
So, who do you think will be the person to blow Cassius’ cover? Will it be Britt herself? Josslyn? Liesl? Brennan? Nina? Lulu? Rocco, Maxie, Cullum or someone else? Let us know your pick in the comment section.
