Additional Comments: Anyone else tired of this tired, overused, clichéd, hackneyed, worn out, done to death (no pun intended) lookalike storyline? That's what, 3 times this year? Does everyone on Y&R have a lookalike who will turn up dead one day leading everyone to think it's them? Come on writers, you guys are really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

Message: On top of this most recent look-alike storyline, we will get an AMNESIA storyline (the real Katherine's). I am very tired, no, very very very tired, of AMNESIA storylines too. This makes the storylines drag on and on and on ad nauseam. And, as was the case with Nick after the plane crash, fizzle out without resolution.

Message: I'm tired of the look-alike stories too. I'm giving this one a pass since it gives Jeanne Cooper a well-deserved chance to shine, then I hope they put the device to bed. Permanently.

Message: ITA. Although I posted the same on another board and they tell me I'm nuts, that this story rocks. Whatever.

Message: I wonder how many lookalikes we can name. I'm sure I'll forget some.
Sheila-Phyllis/Phyllis
William/Jeffrey
Carmen/her cousin
Blade/Blake ? (Is that his name?)
Ghost of John/Allistair (I'm spelling that wrong)
The only thing more common than lookalikes is Mistaken Deaths, and this SL sadly has BOTH.
