It's been an intriguing couple weeks on The Young and the Restless. Here's what the next few episodes will bring:
Thanks to Soap Opera Digest for the following answers to questions from fans of The Young and the Restless:
Q: Has Jeanne Cooper (Katherine) starred on any other soaps?
A: Not exactly, but The Young and the Restless grande dame did a brief crossover to sister show The Bold and the Beautiful in 2005.
Q: Is Thad Luckinbill (J.T., pictured) related to actor Laurence Luckinbill, who was once wed to Lucille Ball's daughter, Lucie Arnaz?
A: Yes, the men are distant cousins. Laurence Luckinbill was also once wed to Robin Strasser (Dorian, One Life to Live), which makes Thad also related to Strasser and Luckinbill's sons, Nicholas and Benjamin.
Q: Is Darcy Rose Byrne, the little girl who plays Abby on The Young and the Restless, the child of Martha Byrne (Lily, As the World Turns)?
A: No. Darcy Rose Byrnes is not related to her. However, entertaining is in the little actress's blood. Her father, C.J. Byrnes, has appeared in many prime-time programs and movies, including Big Love and The Horse Whisperer; and her mother, Cathy D'Arcy, appeared in Twelve Monkeys and Hackers.

When Victor rescued Jack from the Clear Springs building collapse on The Young and the Restless, it was equally awkward as it was heroic.
"Jack has to thank his worst enemy for saving his life," Peter Bergman, who plays Jack, told The New York Daily News.
"At this point, Jack has his own heroic status from sacrificing himself for a Newman [Nick], so Victor acknowledges that," says Bergman. "But it's hardly a coming together of enemies to bury the hatchet. It's a moment where Jack acknowledges that, yeah, he wouldn't be here if it weren't for Victor. And Victor acknowledges that, 'Yeah, you did something for my family, too.'"
As for any The Young and the Restless spoilers, Bergman does reveal it's back to business as usual next week: finger-pointing will reign supreme.
"Jack's status as hero is terribly short-lived," says the actor. "The great story of this collapse is going to be, who is responsible for it? The evidence starts to point to methane drilling. What Jack and Nikki and the company did was build on land that had large methane deposits underneath. They didn't realize the extent of the deposits - and then somebody else decided to start drilling."
Here are a couple quick casting notes for episodes of The Young and the Restless this week:
Seriously, do you?

Detective Maggie can hold her own on The Young and the Restless. However, portrayer Tammy Lauren enjoys showing her softer side.
"Women who act as tough as Maggie are probably more scared of things than others," Lauren said to Soap Opera Digest. "It's such a boys' club on any police force that the women I've seen in law enforcement have to be tougher than the average woman. It's a defense mechanism."
But what about after hours?
"When they're with the guys they're into, they get to show their girly side," Lauren said. That's why she likes Maggie with Paul. "She has her two sides and that makes it more fun to play. One side would be boring."
Overall, the honeymoon is over for Maggie and her PI: "It's going to get complicated, which is way cooler than straight romance. The whole relationship, it's been work that's kept them together. Now all this information comes out like Heather!
"That was a bombshell: If my boyfriend told me he had a grown daughter that didn't know about him, I'd freak out," the actress said. "It would make me think twice about him. And Paul (Doug Davidson) still has a few more surprises he's getting ready to drop on Maggie."
Tammy, of course, wasn't even meant to still be on The Young and the Restless.
"When I joined the show, it was just for the Carmen Mesta murder mystery and then I'd be done," Lauren said. "Since then? There are so many damn criminals in Genoa City that it's kept me busy!"
