Every time i look at net.tv.soaps, all I see are postings about ABC
soaps.

Where are all of you who watch the CBS ones?

What's Victor Newman up to ?

What about Betsy from ATWT ?

And how about GL ? - Haven't seen that in months.

So long and thanx for all the fish,

Larry

I second your request!  If there is some slight interest, I might be
able to catch a few moments of Y&R, ATWT, and GL in June... In the mean
time, anyone know anything about these shows???

I watch Y&R almost every day (The joys of a VCR), so I know what's
been going on.  I would be happy to try to answer any of your
questions.

**** NEWS FLASH ****
Brent Davis is dead! And Ashley is feeling remorse.
Jack finally called in but is still eluding Ashley & Victor.
Gina brought Frances Landers (her ex-cell mate) back to
Genoa City and spilled the beans to Paul about Lauren
breaking up her engagement to Neil. This ploy was engineered
by Shawn (although nobody knows it).

As a result of his new-found knowledge, Paul forces Lauren to
confess the whole matter to her father (or he would leave her),
which she does, to the chagrine and utter dissillusionment (sic?)
of her father.

Jill has decided to fake the symptoms of depression in the hopes that
John might pity her and postpone (or drop) the divorce issue.

John decided to hire Brad on as full time (year round) help with
the promise that he would find work for him at Jabot when things were
slow at the house.
**************************

	These updates will occur twice a week. (Tues & Thurs.)
	or thrice (M W F) depending on whether people are
	reading it. I would appreciate so mail from those
	interested so that I may know my audience.

	Also if you have a PARTICULAR question about the soap
	ask me; I tape ALL the episodes and haven't missed one in
	almost 2 years.

Since I have gotten some positive mail about Y&R updates I will 
be continuing them. The general consensus I have gotten so far is that
people are interested but have not watched the show in some time.

To facilitate these fans, I am listing the regular cast (currently)
of Y&R with a short bio of each one's current status. This will
provide most of you with a jumping-off point where you will be
able to follow my somewhat terse style of updating the show.

Well...here goes...

	The Abbott Family
	-----------------

John Abbott	- Head of the household, Chairman of Jabot cosmetics.
		  He recently had a stroke when he saw pictures of his wife
		  in bed with another man. The man's face was doctored so
		  he doesn't know that the man is his son. He is trying
		  to get a divorce.

Jill Abbott	- John's wife. A coniving, little tramp who would do ANYTHING
		  for her own benefit. She is currently faking depression
		  so that John might drop his divorce whims.


Jack Abbott	- John's only son. Currently Vice-chairman of Jabot. He got
		  there by blackmailing his sister Ashley into resigning her
		  spot as President. He is currently hihding out overseas.
		  Some time ago, he was going to leave Jabot to work for
		  his mom and stole a new Jabot perfume formula in the process.
		  He has been found out and is being pursued.

Ashley Abbott	- The older daughter. She found out a while ago that John
		  is not her real father. She is the product of an affair
		  between her mother and Brent Davis, an ex golf pro who
		  just died. John has no idea of this whole affair. The only
		  one it seems. She is searching for Jack. She has the hots for 
		  Victor.

Traci Abbott	- The younger daughter. She is just about divorced from Danny
		  and is about to get involved with Brad. She is overweight
		  and has some insecurities about it.

Brad		- The Abbott family's groundskeeper. He is very freindly
		  with Jill and has a thing for Traci. He was just rehired
		  as full-time help by John.

Mamie		- The Abbott's maid.


	The Williams and Fenmores
	-------------------------

Paul Williams	- Private investigator. Married to Lauren Fenmore. Currently
		  verrrry pissed at Lauren because he found out that she
		  engineered a breakup between her father and his finacee.
		  He is threatening to leave her.

Lauren F. Williams- Married to Paul. A very talented singer who is trying to
		  have a great marriage but has a cruel and vindictive streak
		  a mile long. Everytime she turns around she comes up smelling
		  like roses. 

Ma & Pa Williams - Paul's Parents.

Neil Fenmore	- Lauren's dad. He was in love with Gina and was going to 
		  marry her until he found out from her ex-cellmate that she
		  was an ex-con. He dropped her like a hot potato. He is very mad
		  at Lauren because he found out that she engineered that scene.

Joanna Manning	- Lauren's long gone mother who just returned. She and Lauren
		  are becoming very close, and Lauren confides and involves heer
		  in all her little schemes.

	The Romaladi's
	--------------

Danny Romaladi	- Very talented singer, and Lauren's partner and mentor. He
		  had his voice destroyed by Shawn (who didn't want him
		  & Lauren together). He's mad at Lauren because of the marriage
		  breakup between his sister and her father.

Gina Roma	- Danny's sister. She was going to marry Neil. She found her
		  ex-cell mate and brought her back to tell how Lauren hired
		  her to ruin the marriage.

	The Newmans
	-----------

Victor Newman	- The richest man in town. He has a thing for Ashley and hates
		  Jack. He doesn't trust his newly-found long-lost brother and
		  suspects him of being in love with Nikki. He is about to track
		  down and destroy Jack for smuggling the stolen formula into
		  his newly-purchased company, Mergeron.

Nikki Newman	- Victor's gorgeous wife. She was a stripper. She is insanely
		  jealous of Ashley and is very freindly with Victor's brother.
		  She was in love with Jack and almost ran away with him when
		  Victor was spending too much time with Ashley. She is Jabot's
		  lead model.

Matthew Miller	- Victor's llnf brother. He has a BIG thing for Nikki. He is
		  very secretive about his past (he's a mercenary) and cannot
		  get along with Victor.

	The Rest
	--------

Kate Chancellor	- Jill's nemesis. She showed John the porno pics of Jill to get
		  back at Jill's taking her husband away 8 years before. She
		  was BIG in love with Brent Davis before he died.

Jazz Jackson
	&
Tyrone Jackson	- Two black brothers who helped put the Genoa City Mafia out
		  of business. Tyrone is trying to get back with Amy. He
		  went under cover for a long time and was masquerading as a
		  white man (great makeup job!) and ended up marrying the
		  mafia-boss's daughter to get at him. She left town when her
		  father was killed in a raid.
		  Jazz works as a legman for Paul & Andy.

Andy Richards	- Paul's partner in the Private I bizz. He is played by Steven Ford
		  (ex - Prez's son). He is currently trying to woo a singer named
		  Farran (sic?). Paul confides everything to him. He was
		  in on the Jackson Brothers undercover.

Shawn Garrett	- Lauren's business manager. The slimiest, sleaziest little
		  scuzzball you ever did see. He single-handedly, ruined Danny's
		  carreer, manipulated Lauren into signing an exclusive recording
		  contract, and is now using Lauren's marriage-breakup scheme
		  to try to oust Paul from her life. He is a real psycho and is
		  not above doing ANYTHING to get what he wants!

Amy Lewis	- Tyrone's love. Her father is a police commander.
