I could def see JLB as Carrie if she ever wanted to give Hollywood a go during that time....

Gotcha...the whole thing is just old fashioned crazy soap goodness that they wouldn't even try today.....

Why did she think Leslie was a bigger threat? It's interesting that Vanessa was on for quite a while (1976-1981 I believe?) What were some of her other schemes against the Brooks Girls besides the framing Lorie for her death?

I wonder what he was offered on Passions? Ethan maybe?....yeah I can see it, and he does sort of look like James Hyde who played Sam (his father)

Wow! after all this talk can't believe we finally get to meet the notorious Vanessa(the actress K.T Stevens sort of looks like she has Deidre Hall's eyes with that Veil on)......boy you were right what a cold hearted creepy bitch of a woman.....she looks like some sort of gypsy queen wannabe with her veils and outfit....loved Lorie being bitchy towards her when she ordered Lorie to go wait in her room (who does that?? haha). I love how she doesn't even really acknowledge that Lorie and Lance are married and calls Lorie "Ms.Brooks". Great to see John McCook as Lance.....he doesn't even call Vanessa mother? haha that whole "bonding" after a trip just sounds weird.... can't wait to see more, I already can't get enough after this clip!

One of the scenes seemed like it was 10 minutes song and it was an intro scene! That really surprised me. Soaps are even admitting now they don't tell long term stories anymore.....It's very sad how they have lost faith in us viewers in willing to wait to actually tell a good long term story..... not that most of them could anyway.....

I'm telling you the person who has Katherine and Jill edits from 1974-1980 better show himself haha. I can't wait to see it all as the only footage of the suicide that's on youtube still I think is rough footage from a Y&R early 80's montage...

haha weird....does she wear her veils? I assume the famous scene of her falling off the balcony will be in these clips? haha.... I'm dying to know if there will be any of the Lorie scenes dealing with the Stuart/Jill marriage and some of the Katherine/Suzanne ghost stuff....?

thanks again! I'm very impressed with JLB in these scenes. I love her breakdown and Stuart's line about spanking her...the end scene was also great too... funny how this is technically happening with Summer/Jack/Nick right now yet I find myself investing more into these Lorie/Stuart scenes I really know little about.....the acting is a lot better too obviously.... I'm excited to see the Vanessa stuff.....I wanna see if she is as creepy as everyone says...

YES!!! your are an angel!!! thank you so much!! wow I knew JLB was always a good actress but she really killed it in those flashback scenes, she's also so pretty.....I truly loved the effect they do on the flashbacks back then....it's a shame how most TPTB are too ashamed to use that type of visual effect now.... Pamela Solow (right?) is also very good and I never realized how cute she was as Peggy she definitely has this innocent look that works very well.... So was this 1977-going into 1978 or 1976 going into 1977 (when they were talking about New Year Eve)

I would love to see this whenever you can upload it!

Yes don't worry I'm probably gonna upload a couple of episodes sometime this week.....gotta take advantage of the couple days I have off haha.....probably gonna upload the December 1990 ones first. Some other things about the episodes you uploaded.... I really am enjoying the Katherine/Jill/Nina scenes.....Such great stuff in those last 2 episodes where they try to get Nina to sign the document and she realizes what they are up to and still signs.. That type of soapy drama will not be seen on Y&R again that's for sure.......The show has made it impossible to bring back any type of Chancellor family drama and that's why we get silly stories with Jill and Colin just to benefit Cane's aussie ass.... I wish I can be more interested in the George Rawlins murder stuff but IDK too much going on it seems like plus it's getting too much airtime.....

Hey guys, I was away for the weekend so I wanted to apologize for the lack of posts lately. Days22 you are doing an excellent job with those uploads! I feel bad that I haven't really commented on them but I did watch finish all the April ones....again If you have May 1 and 2 1989 please upload them.....I just got those dates in the mail myself (along with December 5,6,7,10,11,1990 and May 3,4,5,6,10,11,1993) They were really good episodes so I hope you upload them them when you get the chance.... I did wanna say one thing, on the 4/12/89 episode. How cheesy was that "thank heavens for little girls" montage they did for Cricket the middle of her shoot......You know Terry Lester was punching a wall somewhere when he saw this....It's almost like Bell knew he was annoyed with Cricket being the "star" of the show and he just forced the issue more by writing in all these ridiculous montages for her......I actually thought the old guy in the clip was Bill Bell himself.... I also need to catch up on the Jill/John divorce clips too. I still can't believe Esther was blackmailing Kay for money.....on Part 2 of those clips Jill's fantasy about being rich was deliciously fun....I thought the echos were weird but the "carnival" music during that sequence was a great choice then Kay coming in to do Jill's nails at the end....soo funny.....Brenda also has a pretty good singing voice when she came in singing "I'm in the money"

Katherine really was so bitchy and evil to Jill there....I mentioned on the videos how people were always so kind to her yet painted Jill as the town pariah...but at the same time Jill was acting so slutty around Brad in those scenes from the June 13, 1985 show so I guess it never was really hard to understand where Kay was coming from....I did believe that she generally felt bad for hurting John though she's partly responsible for his stroke...

Haha IKR....maybe we shouldn't be too hard on the current regime.....Just Kidding.... At least they probably had more of a point to being on there then today....

Her name is Elayne Heilveil! http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0374186/ Y&R isn't listed in her credits though....I thought she was pretty good in that scene with Lauren and made a comment on how I wonder if Bell would have kept her on as one of those comic relief type of characters....I guess that's what Boobsie was though at that time... such a treat to see more episodes from the 80's time pop up! you guys need to see the one from June 27, 1985....It's just the Kay/Jill scenes but it's when Kay tells Jill she showed John the pictures at the hospital.....great scene from those 2!

wow that person also has some of an episode of 10/5/84 and is in the process of uploading 6/27/85.....so rare to see episodes from those years.....yes better start saving and maybe he should be warned not to have Y&R in the tittle.

Yeah it's not a good look for SSH....It's just weird cause I actually have an episode of Days from around 2004 (during the SSK story) where Julie and Doug had just come back and SSH had longer hair and looked about 20 years younger then she did on this Y&R episode......haha so creepy. I didn't even realize she knew half of these people on the show, but I guess (Like Lauren later) she was in charge of dresses. I have to say she bonds better with the Days cast more. I mentioned this before but what did you think of Nikki and Ashley teaming up over dinner? I can't get over that scene and how it almost hinted at a Lesbian story between those 2.....it would have been "daring" but of course that wasn't gonna happen.... I also wanted to comment how odd it is seeing Scott and Brad as friends knowing what would come later....how ironic that Scott and Lauren met because of Brad.....I have to say that this was when Brad was still pretty likable then once he saved his head a bit and became Victor's right hand he became one of the show's biggest pricks/playboys....he seems more genuine here.... other then that I find the Traci/Tim stuff boring though I loved when Lauren came by and called Traci out. It's rare seeing Lauren actually at the Abbott house during that time.

probably haha....on some episodes from 1990 I uploaded they actually go right back to the scene they left off on instead of the interruption cutting out those few minutes..... even they knew how important soaps were LOL.

Ok, I'm suppose to be actually getting those same 2 May episodes soon, which is why I asked....haha....but that's ok, if you do have them and post them. I'm also suppose to be getting some dates from December 1990 then from either March or May 1993. Just a few comments on what I saw so far (I watched up to 4/6/89 so far) Love seeing Nina and Phillip married and her running out of the hospital like that.....Jill tried to get Chase to stall Nina by locking them in a room or something right but she figured it out and that's how they crashed? Weird seeing Joanna at the wedding. I wonder how long she stayed on till, i'm guessing her exit came very soon....It's so odd how SSH looks so much older here then from some of her time on Days. She was like 45 or 46 here but looked at least about 10 years older.....I do like the nice mother/daughter chemistry she and Lauren share on the 4/6/89 show.....Was it Joanna's long absence that made Lauren resent her mother when she came back in 2005 for her and Michael's wedding during the Sheila debacle? She didn't even show up for Scott and Lauren's wedding later in the year. Jill's reaction to learning Phillip and Nina got married was great. Jess was def still acting like Brenda though....LMAO at that outfit. Rex seemed so cold to her for some reason and those 2 always had a warm relationship.....I guess he even got fed up at her antics. The John/Jim/Jessica stuff bored me a little, I'm sorry to say. The funniest scene was the stuff dealing with Nikki/Ashley and her using Victoria to ruin her and Victor's night.....Y&R did comedy so well during this time and I even think some of that got lost eventually as early as 1992-1993.Victor was actually a lot of fun too...the most relaxed I seen of him, and I can't believe he called Leanna "sexy". I thought they were divorced because he had found out about her role in "ruthless" guess that came later....I love the child actress as Victoria....I think she really brings out the best of EB.... I was shocked at all the innuendo surrounding the Nikki/Ashley dinner date scenes from the way Jack reacted and the way Nikki just says to Ashley "we should be partners" (meaning helping each other hook up with men) LOL.....the look on Ashley's face when she said that.....those scenes seemed like they were almost trying to suggest a possible hookup with Nikki and Ashley, yet it still being the 80's they couldn't actually go there and just had to settle with "innuendo" Bell really tried to play around with it though....I remember people saying it would have been nice to make Ashley bi and have her hook up with Mari-Jo. good to see more of Lester's final days.....though I admit he really seems more hammy then from what I seen before....guess it was true he was "done" with it by this time. He really was more of the "playboy" as he just breezes into the Newman ranch ready to neck Nikki. Nice to see the beginning of the famous George Rawlins Murder tale....however confusing it got.....I liked how it seemed to focus on it really either being Paul or Cassandra who shot George.....and wow Victor actually giving real evidence and not twisting stuff around just to save his own ass like he would today.....I liked when Paul confronted him though. Victor was just telling the truth (for once) so there was nothing wrong with his actions. Can't wait to watch more!

Here's the last new April 93 one from me, 4/20/93. Probably the longest video I have uploaded....Kind of a weird thing with this episode as it's Y&R with Clinton's press conference in Waco Texas thrown in there. The show starts regularly then gets interrupted for the conference and it lasts at least 30-35 minutes or so....have know idea why it wasn't edited out, but they restart the entire show from the beginning after it's done.....you can skip right to 26:18 if you don't wanna watch the speech.....I just kept it in there so you guys would see what I'm talking about, haha.

You don't happen to have 2 dates from May 1989 as well do you? (May 1 and 2, 1989?) I love that you decided to upload these! I have so many things to comment on which I will in a little bit, but I'm just glad that more people are taking a hand to uploading all these great episodes. These shouldn't be kept off of youtube! Yep! he's in a few!

OMG!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! :D gonna watch some now!!!

It's still pretty surprising even after all these years Brenda had that stint on Passions as Crystal Eve's former friend who knew all her secrets then was accidentally gunned down cause they thought it was Sheridan. I wouldn't think she would fit on a show like Passions after seeing her as Ashley and she's more of an "old school" type of actress that's perfect for a Bell soap, but she did do a good job on Passions. The best thing about most of these episodes is the Jill and Leanna scenes.I know some people say Nikki was a better rival for Leanna but her and Jill sparring with each other always makes my day....I wish I had the episode where Leanna dumps a drink on Jill or Jill dumps the sundae on Leanna. anyways here's another new one 4/19/93. Almost Half of the episode was cut off though, do to a special report on the Waco Texas Incident.,,,, http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2413k3_brad-decides-to-confront-sheila-april-19-1993_shortfilms

It was like Bad soap parody porn music!!!
