While all-new episode won’t air Thanksgiving Day of The Young and the Restless, the CBS daytime drama is serving up a blast from the past, classic episode, and who should be appearing in it, the character of Eve Howard (played by the late Margaret Mason).
With all the talk and speculation on how just Claire (Hayley Erin), Aunt Jordan (Colleen Zenk) and Cole (J. Eddie Peck) are all tied together, while Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) is kidnapped and hooked to an IV of Vodka, then losing her willpower and downing the bottle left behind, it makes sense that Y&R would give viewers a little memory-jolt from back in 1993.
CBS will air on Thursday November 23rd, Y&R episode #5044, that originally aired back on February 4th, 1993. In story, Victor (Eric Braeden) receives a surprise visit from Eve Howard, Traci (Beth Maitland) confronts Lauren (Tracey Bregman) about her affair with Brad (Don Diamont), Michael (Christian LeBlanc) covers his tracks, Gina (Patty Weaver) plays matchmaker for Ryan (Scott Reeves) and Nina (Tricia Cast), and Nikki helps Victoria (then Heather Tom) mend a broken heart.
The big question is …what happens after Eve shows up at Victor’s door?
There will also be no new-episode of Y&R this Friday, November 24th when the soap is preempted for College Football with coverage of SEC and Big 10 games. Among the games to be broadcast are: Iowa at Nebraska and Missouri at Arkansas, but check local listings in your area.
So, do you remember the Eve and Victor storyline from the early 90’s? How Cole first was with Nikki and then fell for her daughter, Victoria … and their baby that died, whom they named “Eve”?
