B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
At the beginning, when I was very very young like 3-4-5 years old I don't think he minded it, because he didn't think I understand it. But when I was older... like 9-10... he started to worry that it's too feminine. He wanted me to play sports, while I was fantasizing about a soap opera and running around my room pretending to be Brooke or Stephanie. I am 25 years old and I am a proud Bold and Beautiful fan and I dont care about anymore. My father to this day laughs when I mention the series. He is used to it by now. Bold is essential for getting to know me. I will forever love it. At least love the classic Bold.

My mother actually remember that back in 1994, when the show first started airing in my country, it was so big, that people would skip everything to watch. Streets would be empty. And these were the first amazing years of episodes, so back then while I was in her tummy... she watched it and sometimes she jokes that maybe I heard the show inside and that's why I loved it when I grew up. It was my ritual to watch it and after it was perceived to girly for a boy to watch Bold, my father forbid it. I would not sleep to watch the early morning repeat, so that my father won't see me watching the girly show. Maybe that's why I become so obsessed. It was my first ever rebellion. I would tape and secretly watch the episodes again. I was in love with Stephanie and Brooke and Sheila... there were the silent moments of the morning, when everyone would sleep and I would be in my secret dark world of Bold and Beautiful. It changed my life.

People in my country mock people who watch Bold, because they've only see the trash years... I keep telling them that at the beginning it was a masterpiece, but nobody believes me. How could they when we have Liam for a leading man and Thomas as a villian. Brad Bell lobotomized the show.

I really can't believe we are up to 750 + episodes, without a miss, in perfect quality. NEVER expected this to happen. When I was a 5 year old, I dreamt of this. I know how stupid it sounds, but I was so in love with Bold. I am living in these first episodes. Up to 270 now. I am having a diary, writing 1 dialogue line from every episode to remember.

B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
I don't understand something... and I really am not ungrateful to Amy, who has been the hero for us... but I don't get why she doesn't respond to all the people who ask if she can just give us a folder in google... and just be done with this chaos. It's very strange to have to wait for her every day at a random time to upload a link somewhere, then change her mind and open and account, then change her mind again, and again...and tell us again and again that CBS is blocking her... Let me tell you that if CBS has blocked more that 3 videos from her account and she has had a copyright strike, her profile would be deleted. There is still this one video that she had public 288, that CBS is not blocking. It is very bizare... she continues to say she is not a fan, so I don't get what is going on. I am happy we are getting these episodes, but I'm puzzled by this behaviour. All of the video that were removed say removed by user, not copyright... Can anybody help me understand this... I am not saying she is doing this on purpose, but... I don't get it. Why not a folder and just everyone can go and check out the episode at their time. I am going to be having some busy days ahead and I'm already scared I may miss some of her posts or changes in uploading... or something. I really hope that if we all just keep an eye on her profile, we will not lose episodes. I am again very thankful to her.

Y&R to air classic episodes
Bold is so cheap lately it looks like it's a web series. It's disgusting. How did they let it get so cheap. Watching 1987 it's like watching expensive suite in russian hotel to now 2020... cheap las vegas motel.

The only problem Ihave watching the retro episodes are that I can't stand Caroline. She is so generic... so predictable... i start to fall asleep when she comes up. I know lots of people like her... but I don't get it. God I hope they upload on that site... through 1990..1991.1992 and 1993. They already did 1987-1989. If only we could know how many seasons they will upload. It's very strange B&B doing this only in this country, but not in the USA. Why don't they give all fans around the world this chance to watch. And again... the episodes from the official channel continue to disturb me. I watched one from 2005 today and there were montage marks and ideas pasted on the footage. I could hear someone laugh during another scene from back... How is this mess public. HOW. Are they lunatics. P.S Amy just uploaded an episode. I am downloading immediately. Also... I dont' want to sound ungrateful to Amy... I am sure she is doing this for the fans and it's very hard to keep these uploads ... but if CBS was blocking so many of her videos, why haven't they deleted her channel. I've gotten my channel deleted after 3 blocks and I think this is the rule. 3 videos claimed by another party and if you can't object... they delete your channel. So it's very odd she is still up. Maybe I don't understand something?

Watching episode 445 right now and the writing is so damn good. Makes me wonder... are nowadays the people who are writing... complete idiots. Why is Bold not able to pursue a storyline without boring repetitive dialogue... why is it so hard. Why don't they just copy-paste some scripts from the old days! It will be better! I wanted to rank the years in storyline quality. From the years I've watched... not complete years, of course, since some I haven't watched completely... but I've watched the main stories and remember most of them from my childhood. 1. 1993 - The best time of Bold And The Beautiful... 2. 1987 - iconic 3. 1992 - iconic 4. 1988 - !!! 5. 1989 - !!! 6. 1990 - iconic 7. 1991 - Some of my favorite moments! 8. 1994 - good, but had problems and bad directing... from the episodes I remember. -1995-to 1998 haven't watched the storylines. then... 9.1999 - had some really cool stuff. 10. 2002 - I loved this year actually, even though there were some very stupid stories. 11. 2001 - remember the atmosphere. 12. 2000 - it's 50.50 13. 2005 - Somehow I liked this year. I think it's the only year they really tried to bring back some classic elements back. But failed. And I hated how much Bridget had to suffer like an idiot. And Brooke repeating Bridget. Bridget. Bridget. Bridget. I wonder how KKL didn't go to a doctor after having to say this disgusting name Bridget so many times. 14. 2003 - I have a bad taste from these episodes, didn't like how Brooke was being written. Nick just started to ruin everything. 15.2010 the only year after 2003, that I can rank at this place. The most stupid storyline stands out as the most interesting. The Oliver bang. It was trashy and fun... but Bold was now in another territory. Complete trash. Brooke is a caricature. Hope is the new Bridget. Disgusting. TILL now it's OK. Hahahah. 16. 2004 something's very off in 2004. very repetitive... too much Nick. 17. 2006 starting to go really bad. Taylor is unbearable at times. Storylines get dark and melodramatic. Had some good parts and good fights. 18. 2013 - There was an attempt here to re-boot after death of Stephanie and Ronn Moss leaving. It was bearably bad. I liked the Slut from the valley with Bill though... I don't know why. 19.2012 - Stephanie going away... But otherwise... Hope nightmare. 20.2007 Donna Logan nightmare - And complete death of Brooke as a character. 21. 2008 - Hated the entire year. Brooke had botched lip surgery. That's what I remember. 22.2009 - I don't even remember what this year was about... and I think I've watched the episodes 2 times! 23. 2011 - Bad. Bad. Bad. Thomas Brooke. Bad. Then 2014-2020 - Please cancel this sh-t. This is so bad and so useless.. unwatchable. 2017 stands out as a better. Otherwise... I hate everything. And it's fast forward. Too much Bill, who can't act if his life depends on it. Too much bad acting. So to make a resume - Till Stephanie was gone... it started as a masterpiece and turned trashy, but watchable. After 2013-2014 I pray for cancellation and this is coming from a HARDCORE fan, who grew up with this show and loves it more than ANYTHING Tv or media. How would you guys rank the years you have watched? Even if not full...

Amazing. I am all for 1989 to be uploaded first, if you have it. From Amy's uploads. These I think are the most precious episodes. Thank you million times again. When I get my laptop I can pretty much add complete 2005... I have couple of months from 2003 and 2004 from diva tv somewhere... and 2006-2020 is more available on youtube. I once had a lot more, but my laptop got stolen. I am still mourning the loss of these episodes.

I was watching some of the episodes they uploaded on their official channel... and they are not finally cut even. There was a mark for a scene to be switched because it's not a good quality. How and why did they upload these episodes on there... Mess. I am happy that they did.. but it's such a mess. I noticed that when you watch these old episodes on youtube there are ads... so probably they wanted the money from ads and views and someone suggested they upload whole years. Why don't they upload the whole series hahah.. they will make money from views... I guess I can dream.
