B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
Oh, so there WERE a lot of preemptions. I thought that was so weird for that time of year. Was Y&R affected also? I downloaded a bunch of the them on YouTube years ago, since deleted, and they had all the dates in July, August, plus the preempted September 7 and 11 dates (those September dates tipped me off to the problem also). I guess that person bought the DVD and was just using a calendar to date them but they weren't the correct dates at all. I'm not sure how 1988 can be right, though, if December 31, 1987 has the wrong episode number. It seems what we would need would be a certain date where we know that CBS has given us both the official episode number and we know the date. Thanks for the link! The episode numbers do seem to be easier to follow, but the problem is when you find some random episode on YouTube with a date in 88 or 89, and then you don't have the episode number to compare. Do you know how many episodes are in the official release? Is it 250? I purchased the first 16, which is all that was available in the US, and downloaded up to 105 but am looking for the rest. I never bothered with those "special episode" DVDs. Thank you all!

That Lorie/Leslie scene sounds so good. That's what soaps should be. We don't need ghosts or special effects or crazy crap. Just a scene of people behaving like people, two sisters arguing, one hurting the other in a way that could have played out in anyone's living room, in a very human way. There is some audio of Jill performing the tracheotomy on Stuart here

I've been trying to catalogue the B&B that I have, and I noticed that the IMDB listing is messed up for 1987 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092325/episodes?year=1987 It jumps from episode 100 on 8/7/87, to episode 102 on 8/17/87, to episode 105 on 8/28/87. I highly doubt those were preemptions, so that means I can't go by IMDB. It's really annoying because some people upload B&B by date but others upload by episode # (probably because it's so popular internationally with various airdates). Does anyone know of a reliable resource to obtain episode numbers?

So in the 1975 video, am I the only one who got the vibe that Katherine was looking to Brock for comfort from a lover, not a son? That's totally how I'd have read it, had I not known these characters. And it makes sense based on real life. BTW, have they ever addressed Beau Kayzer's death onscreen? Did Mac ever say that her father was dead? Man the next episode sounds like a good one, with Katherine and Jill due in court where I assume the judge will invalidate Jill's ownership of the house. Too bad it wasn't included. Then with the 1978 video, I was thinking it's funny given how few episodes there are from this era, I have already seen the storyline "Leslie is too nervous to play" at least 3 times, although this was the first time she didn't overcome it (I would've liked to have seen Janice Lynde portray that). That classical piece sounds so familiar, but I cant't place it. I liked where they were going with the juxtaposition of her negative thoughts with the music, but it came off as cheesy the way it was executed, which is surprising for Y&R. I really hope those 1983-84 vids cover more of the Rick Daros storyline. I saw a couple of partial episods from it on pannoni4's channel and I was quite riveted. You are the man/woman!

Some fun stuff... I found that I had the full original scene of Victor and Nikki discussing his impotence (I posted it as a minisode but it was heavily edited). This is really great acting from MTS, especially when she debates whether to see no to Victor. Is it just me or does EB subtly look down at his groin at 2:25, hah. Found the Y&R Diagnosis Murder crossover on YT Does anyone know of any other shows like this? I just know of the Nanny and I had saved it last time it was online so here's a repost. Interesting how PB is presented as kind of a jerk. And this random clip where Fran is accused of stealing a baby... I love how they throw out totally random names...

Archive.org is a little weird. In the box with "Download Options" I hover where it says "Windows Media" and then a little button pops up to the right of "Windows Media" with an arrow to download. Another more straightforward way is clicking "Show All" and then you get a link page like this https://archive.org/download/TheYoungTheRestlessLateApril1982partial and just right click on the .wmv file and "save link as." It's important that as many of us download these files as possible, in case they ever get removed and someone has to upload it to youtube. Having multiple copies floating around helps preserve these amazing finds. Never made a screencap before, so I hope this turned out alright.

I remember being so shocked whenever the soap magazines would say that Y&R didn't have humor like the other shows. It was hilarious but it was more the subtleties in the writing than having some obvious "comic relief character" (or God forbid, animal) come out. I mean, GH literally ruined the episode with Stone's death with scenes of Sigmund the freaking duck. I actually do have that clip saved! Here you go. In all seriousness, I love that Esther was trying to take care of Kay, and even later went to school to be a substance abuse counselor. You never cease to amaze me, YRfan23! How do you not only keep track of all the air dates, but actually remember where to find specific lines in specific shows!?
