I know there was that Kimberlin Brown/Hunter Tylo fallout at B&B. Did Kimberlin have any backstage issues at Y&R or was it all just on Tylo?

Did Bell ever have any real plans for Victor/Ashley outside of the affair story? I know they were married for a few years, but was that just an obstacle to Nikki/Victor? Did Bell feel differently about them with Brenda Epperson in the role than he did when Eileen was there? I was also going to ask if there were any stories planned for Jill or Jack in the late '80s that were scuppered due to the recasts.

Thanks. That sounds like such a bleak ending. I wonder what the other stories were at the end.

I guess he liked to keep stories separate. I have to admit I always thought Scott was dull, although I did like Barton on Burke's Law.

I think Lemay/Rauch had made a soap that was easy to admire but perhaps also easy to not have an emotional connection to. That meant the show became a mile wide and an inch deep.

That's a very touching line from Katherine. I think a lot of people don't get the Kay/Esther relationship - like LML making a thing of Esther no longer wearing a uniform. I hadn't thought of Scott and Olivia. They would have been dull but it would have given Olivia something to do, since by 1992 or 1993 or so the show seemed to have lost interest in Nathan. Did the show ever have any plans for Paul and Hillary? How much was Sheila's story on Y&R extended due to her popularity? I wonder what the original ending would have been.

I never knew that.

Thanks for telling us about the SWAT. I'll have to watch that sometime. That was nice for Bell to write that for Katherine and Esther. I was going to ask - I probably asked this before, but forgot - during the photos where Katherine was using the photos of Jack/Jill, there were scenes of Esther dressing in disguise and going to get the photos from a trash can. Was she doing this for Katherine? Was she trying to get money out of Katherine? I got the impression from the episodes that she was doing this behind Katherine's back.

Was the Esther will scene there to set up the Norman story which killed Rex off? Or was that not in Bill's mind at that point?

I didn't realize those were the only two soaps to film in Spain.
