Y&R: Check out Katherine's Double, Marge, on Soaps.com!

Saturday, October 04 2008

What with the recent spoilers suggesting that Y&R's Jeanne Cooper may be reprising her role as Katherine's double, Marge Cotroke, this fall, many Soaps.com readers have been asking for a refresher on just who the character is, and how she fit into Katherine's story.

Clint Radison (seen in the video 'recruiting' Marge), discovered a Katherine Chancellor lookalike in a diner in another town, and brought her to Genoa City to pose as the wealthy Mrs. Chancellor in an effort to steal her fortune.

Trivia tidbit: Clint (James Michael Gregary) conned Gina Roma (Patty Weaver) into marriage!

So check out the video for a first hand look at Marge Cotroke, Katherine's double!



Be sure to watch our Spoiler section for updates on what Katherine and other Y&R characters will be doing next!

what is wrong you writer can't come up with something new
all this old stuff just don't do it for me

Been there done that... There are all kinds of stories they could write for Katherine versus duplicating old storylines.

-A new man, who hates Jill.
-Struggle with an international company trying to take over Chancellor Industries.
-Her new book, book tours with people from her past popping up and people being upset about the info she disclosed.
-Give Jabot back to Abbotts and upset Jill and Cane, not to mention going after Gloria for tainting the face cream.
-Take over Forrester Creations from Eric Forrester and then return it to Stephanie Forrester because she disapproves of Eric kicking his wife of 35+ years to the curb for a younger model (i.e. Phillip/Jill). Not to mention she promised Stephanie's father (when he made her trust manager/executive) she would do whatever she could to ensure Stephine ended up with the company not Eric (remember he gave Stephanie the money to start the company). That would be a great twist and total unexpected. They could also make Jill find out what Katherine's up to and "assume" Katherine is buying the company for her to run and she's get pist when she finds out Katherine gave it back to Stephanie.
-Let Katherine find out Chloe slept with Billy and he's probably the father of her child not Cane.
-Let Katherine try to steal Neil from Victor to work at Chancellor Industries, a friendly rivalry.
-Show Katherine jet setting off to exotic places and enjoying herself and her money.

Just to name a few.....

Yes, I would like to see Marge come back if she was doing it for Kay, then when Gloworm and Jack think they have Kays company, they find out they don't because it was Marge all of the time and Kay has been getting treatment for her forgetfulness. Ha ha ha

Glad to know I am not the only one who's fed-up with Chloe and her manipulative ways. I so want Cane and Lily to find their way back to each other. As far as I am concerned they should write Chloe's character off. Tired of seeing dishonest people get what they want.

Besides, there's enough of that going on in G.C. already.

Why are the writer's constantly making Lily a door mat? As of late I can't bare to watch until they take some of the storylines in a new direction.

Come on, time for things to work-out for Lily.

I totally disagree with the Marge storyline..... I am sick of lookalikes ( Sheila ). I feel that Green has some great ideas... truelly feel like you should submit them to the writers for serious consideration. I have been watching this show for 30+ years and I am soooo sick of the lookalikes that have trounced thru Genoa City.. the last one was a total disaster. Take it from a true fan and can never stop watching the show... let some of the ideas stay where they belong and stop picking them off of the cutting room floor.

Also I agree with KY.. why is Lily so weak when her mother was soooo strong very out of character.... Can we give the girl some more calcium let her have a back bone.... Luv all

I remember that s/l with Marge if she was the one with the gold tooth. Also that guy Clint is also the guy that was married to Nina Chancellor and they had "murderer" scarred across his forehead after he tried to kill Nina. I don't remember his name as Clint, I thought it was Michael.

I'd like to see Katherine get a new man in her life that really loves her. That could cause some jealousy issues with Jill. I don't like to see Katherine taken advantage of simply because she is very sharp and like Victor, no one gets anything over on her. I want her to come back fighting whenever she needs to. She's always had backbone...love the actress.

Nah, the first time around was funny. Now it would just be redundant. Kind of like the many lives of Shiela. No Thanks I'd perfer to pass on this....

Jeanne Cooper,

She's a wonderful actress as Catherine Chancellor.
Now she'll be a waitress Marge trying to scam Kay once more and replace her wihout husband Rex Sterling this time around to save her again, since he's dead already.
Could Marge be Jill's real mother instead of Kay, who still has doubts about wheather she and Jill are really mother and daughter?
Or does Kay have a twin sister, that she doesn't know about yet still?
Why is Marge, really coming back as "Forgetful Marge/ Kay" now?
What has Marge done with Kay and just where is she now? She's not quite herself these days in the mind of course.
What sinister game just does Cane have in the works involving his uncle back in Austrailia, i really wonder?
I guess Esther will be clueless again once more this time around now that Chloe/ Kate has returned with an "Abbott" bun in the oven cooking. (lol)
I can't wait to see what really happends this time all the way around, since 1989! (lol)
