'The Young and the Restless' Chief Jill Farren Phelps on the Shocking Ian-Mariah Twist
"Ray is a very busy actor — but we have great story coming up for him. June is going to be huge and very crazy. We'll keep Ian in town, initially, with the Mariah connection and the history of their relationship, but there's a much bigger picture to be revealed."
"As soon as Tyler even mentioned there was a Mariah, the writers knew it would be Fake Cassie. She is going to be a huge threat to the Abby-Tyler relationship, which we know really needed some help. Mariah will also continue to have enormous involvement in the Sharon-Nick story and, obviously, her relationship with Ian is going to be big when it's finally discovered by other people. She's a wild girl, not a good girl like Cassie, and that will impact the whole Newman family."

Twenty Years Later, Investigation Discovery Revisits America's Most Controversial Trial in Exclusive Film 'OJ: Trial of the Century'
The film follows the real-life soap opera that was the Simpson case as it played out like an episodic work of dramatic fiction.
I am not buying Faux Cassie as a threat to Tyler nor Abbie. This storyline is ridiculous, it ain't even funny.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Not Buying things: I don't buy JFP's declaration that Faux Cassie being Mariah was the original plan.Tyler mentioned early on that Lily reminded him a lot of Mariah and I don't see the resemblance. At. All. Is this why the writers have made Lily bitchy all of a sudden? Also, people have mentioned that the tattoo on faux Cassie's wrist looks different from the first time it was revealed on a seemingly darker skinned wrist. CG is very fair skinned and the first couple times the wrist was revealed, it was tanned at the very least.
ReplyDeleteSo Phelps' story about it being CG's character all along doesn't pass the smell test IMO.
I think the missing parenthetical remarks from Phelps' unbelievable claim about FakeCassie and Mariah are:
ReplyDelete"As soon as Tyler even mentioned there was a Mariah, the (first time AFTER the NEW) writers (picked the story up - AFTER Josh Griffith departed - we) knew it would be Fake Cassie."
Like others, I just don't see how Josh Griffith, who was writing the show when Mariah was first discussed last Spring, ever intended her to be FakeCassie. I'd guess this was one of the stories that Altman and Passanante reworked, with things heading in a decidedly different direction some time during the Fall.
And really, if that's JFP's claim, then even the casting folks didn't get the memo and did a horrible job with the Mariah Body Double they hired. They didn't even get the fingernails right! .. lol! .. (Mariah always had perfectly-manicured French tip nails. Nothing like Fake Cassie's at all.)
