yrfan1983

Fingers crossed to see Jack and Patty, Jill, Stuart and Liz at the Brooks house, Vanessa scheming... Had Eve and little Charles (aka Cole) left town yet? That would be amazing to see them. Oh! And maybe we'll see future Broadway star Howard McGillin as Greg Foster #4! You can go here https://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/vintage-y-r-voldemort-synopses-t18675-s210.html and scroll to cover date Jan 19, 1982 for a detailed synopsis of this timeframe.

Very cool comparison, thank you!! I wonder why they had to change the cue? I think the 1990 one is more effective. Especially comparing the kiss at 1:25 to the kiss at 3:15... the music at 1:25 is much more haunting and disturbing... underscoring the fact that Adrian is violating Cassandra with this kiss and she is powerless to stop it...

^ Great idea, thanks @ChickenNuggetz92 !

I would differentiate between Leanna Randolph (1987-1989) and Leanna Love (1990-on). Leanna Randolph was a complex fascinating character, while Leanna Love, IMO, was an annoying twit

I was so surprised to recently realize that we didn't see the last of Veronica's Mamie when she left town in '95 after her romance with John. She came back '99-'01 (or longer?) to serve as the Abbott housekeeper again. I guess she and John were able to suppress their burning desire for each other

EB and PB's 1992 fist-fight would be #1 on the list!

Omg it’s Victoria’s 16th birthday, amazing!

Woohoo, thanks! Looks like a pivotal Victor and Leanna ep

'Y&R's Lauralee Bell and Doug Davidson Relive Chris & Paul's Honeymoon in Nevis https://www.tvinsider.com/931945/young-and-the-restless-paul-christine-wedding-honeymoon/

Thank you so much @BoldRestless ! I'm already binging!

I wouldn’t be mad at the show repeating the March 2003 30th anniversary week with Julianna McCarthy, James Houghton and William Gray Espy reprising their roles, as Liz reveals that Jill was adopted

Love these - especially since these eps aren't already online I would add the 1989 ep when Katherine betrays Jill by admitting on the witness stand that Nina should inherit Phillips estate. And the 1990 ep where Katherine interrupts Jill and Rex's wedding to reveal that Rex and Katherine are still married.

I wonder if they are loathe to air anything with Ronn Moss' Ridge...

In general, a lot of people consider "the golden era" to be 1973-1994, with a dip in quality from 1995-1997, and a resurgent "silver era" from 1998-2003. Of course within that, some years are better than others. 1983 and 1991 are peak years for me.

Last original YR is this Thursday! All vintage after that... for next week "Y&R will kick things off with a week of vintage episodes — some dating back as far as 1990 — centered on iconic Genoa City matriarch Katherine Chancellor (played by the late Jeanne Cooper)." https://tvline.com/2020/04/20/young-and-restless-last-new-episode-final-original-reruns/

It is strange to see John and DA's Jill look so tense and uncomfortable with each other, when all the previous clips show them very loving. Thank you @ltm1997 and @YRfan23 - this is the holy grail of lost YouTube clips

Nikki is supposed to be off at rehab but during the ball, she pops up wearing a disguise and Jack spots her

Kate Linder (Esther) reflects on the Masquerade Ball https://www.tvinsider.com/931141/kate-linder-young-and-the-restless-masquerade-ball-episode-1991/

I know, right? So stiff and wooden. JC is acting circles around him. Maybe the role just didn't suit him somehow. He thrived a couple years after on the sitcom "Soap" and was beloved in the 2000s on the show "Battlestar Galactica"

^ Thanks, good interview. Never been a fan of PBs Jack (I still agree with Rosie that he will always be Cliff) but I like how humble and grateful he is.

Scott is often written out-of-character to suit whatever plot is currently happening. I'm watching July/Aug '93 right now and Lauren is extremely frustrated because Scott is too busy with work to put any effort towards their marriage. His behavior doesn't match the character as previously established.

At 7:21 of this vid, very short and fuzzy Christmas 1981 YR promo of carolers singing for young Chuckie at the hospital. Hadn't seen this promo before https://youtu.be/u6L68ARtFzI

We’re not worthy @YRfan23 ! Thanks for all you do
