    Rose's first appearance was part of a teen runaway story in  involving Chris Brooks. Somehow she escaped that rap and resurfaced for the Nikki story.

    Thats crazy i almost forgot chris brooks had a storyline with her when rose first came onto the scene, i would love to see those scenes but im sure nobody could ever find them. i dont think ive even seen any episode from 1979 which is weird.

  2. Hey i havent wrote on these boards in awhile probably since the pandemic but im sure like alot of you find this show very boring and there attempts to rewrite history has failed, they dont bring in characters that have really made a mark on the show in years now lol like what is going on. This current state makes me wanna stream the old episodes from the beginning just to watch how well created the stores were and with less technology back then they still managed to keep the interest going, i hate when they show old episodes because its the same stuff we have seen before why not show us an episode that viewers havent seen or havent seen since its original airing. im still intrigued with the 70's leading up until atleast 1983 yes the other years were good aswell leading up until the early 00 but i think we know that era so well! i wanna see more of lorie, peggy, leslie, chris, stuart, jill liz, vanessa, katherine, sally lucas, lance and early nikki, victor, paul, jack, traci, ashley ,lauren, danny,

    Does anyone know how early in the years before 2005 that Nick/sharon first started interacting with Phyllis cause i don't remember her ever being in there orbit all those other years. Mostly due to Phyllis being in the abbott orbit but i think i remember a scene from 2004 where Nick/Phyllis talk but perhaps that scene gave them ideas to maybe get her involved with him a year later.

    Since I couldn't put it on the vault here it is on YouTube:

     

     

    Wow this is soo amazing this is my second time seeing a 1978 episode this year thank you kindly, i wanna see more soo bad.

     

    I never ever heard of those 2 other ladies that were speaking in the kitchen, how long were they on and who were they more connected to? And did anything explosive happen in there storyline?

    @Legacy I'm trying to imagine what storylines Bill Bell would've written for Vanessa past her original run. Could you see Vanessa becoming more involved with Prentiss Industries and Bill Bell turning her into his version of Angela Channing?

    She could have gone head to head with Katherine or Victor or even john abbott in business fashion, they could have maybe given her a man who was the opposite of her or just as crazy as she was. She could have been another Katherine for some of the younger cast. I am one day waiting to see the clip where she met Katherine and what she thought of her lol

    Ahhh, so many (but not all, alas) soaps were written very well in the 1970s. It's a treat to relive their glory days!

    Yes and im a 90's baby so when i read these stories or even see old clips from that time, it makes me think damn why in these modern can't we have ground breaking stories that have depth at substance.

    @FrenchFan Thank you for posting the June 1976 summaries. Can't wait to read more about Vanessa Prentiss. She was on almost 5 1/2 years (June 1976 to November 1981), that's a good arc for a villainess.

    So i assume this would have been Vanessa prentiss first appearance on the show, your right she did have a good arc i just wish there could have been more for her to continue but i guess they did everything they could until it was time

    i believe they did so Dylan should have come from that relationship if they had to give Paul another child.Maybe Cindy could have returned and flashbacks used. Instead they rewote stuff for the ridiculous Paul/Nikki/Dylan story.

    Y&R has all that history available and they fluck it up.

    Even Ian ward part of the story or was it Simon that i use to read about was the to g leader in the cult story, why didn't they bring him back so they can use those 1980 flash backs.

     

    They could have been creative and even brang Peggy Brooks back to help nikki and Paul when the story was unravelling.

    I remember the show chemistry tested Lauren with that cute blonde guy Chase..and than she got paired with Scott right after.

     

    I remember Victor and Nina had interaction back in 1992 when she was engaged to Ryan..with Victor telling Victoria that she was beautiful and that he hoped she would now be able to move on.  And another time he told Nina she needed to fight to keep Ryan saying they both wanted the same thing (to keep Ryan and Victoria apart).

    Funny you said exactly what i was gonna bring up next, Yea i loved watching Nina/Victor scenes cause that's also rare. I think Victor/Nina could have had Maybe a good friendship or they could have been against each other.

     

    It's never too late to have Nina crossover into the Newman side now that her son is with Abby and if they ever have kids together Nina should be apart of it.

    Does anyone know if Patty/Nikki interacted in the early 80's ? I've alwats wondered if those 2 ever had scenes back then that i probably never seen, especially because Patty was close to Paul and so was Nikki in those days.

    I always wished they had had a Lauren/Brad/Nikki triangle in 95. Imagine the bitchy interactions between them two.

    Nikki/Lauren would have had some good bitch fights if they got paired in a triangle, but i guess these 2 have never had a reason to go at eachother so they will always stay cordial. 

     

    Funny Lauren never really crossed over into Victor orbit much unless it had to do with Michael and Victor talking or if there is some even that brings the whole town together.

  10. Does anyone know when Nikki/ Neil first started interacting, around the time in 2015 I actually liked there friendship which led to them killing Christine's child accidentally. I e en think they would have been somewhat a interesting couple depending on what juicy storyline the writers can come up with to make it believable.

     

    I wasn't watching back in 2002 but in the vault i came across a scene where nikki was talking to him about his drinking, i didn't know they teamed up back in 2002 for the same thing they grouped up for in 2015 so i was curious what other interactions they have had before that.

    I recall that similar alternate fan fiction time-line, that too would have been a major way to keep Sheila on the canvas.

     

    Agreed on Jill vs Diane, and Katherine vs Vanessa. 

    What about Katherine/Sheila and i know this is a hard one but also could have been juicy in small doses, Katherine could have friended Sheila and maybe add Sheila in on her scheme towards Jill lol

    I think it would have been funny if Nikki had hooked up with Lucas Prentiss pre-Victor and drove Vanessa crazy with her trashy ways.

     

     

    That would have been interesting and rare, and didn't nikki sister (Casey) date lucas? I wonder how the interaction between her and Vanessa was cause im sure Vanessa seen her as a threat just like Lorie and Leslie. 

     

    One of 1982 episodes i saw lucan and Lorie plotting about Victor and Lucas called Nikki a "dumb blonde" lol i wonder how there interaction went for him to say that even though we know in those days it was clearly true lmao.

  12. On 10/16/2020 at 11:34 PM, kalbir said:

    Katherine and Vanessa would've been epic.

     

    Another interaction that would've probably be amazing is Vanessa and Victor. I'm sure Victor would recognize Vanessa as someone not to mess with.

    I was surprised to see a scene in the vault from 1982 of Katherine mentioning Vanessa to nikki as if they had some type of interaction, there might have been At least 1 scene that is hidden somewhere in those years that had them 2 in it.

     

    Victor must have came across Vanessa in those times, i wonder if Vanessa gave off any bad energy to him in those scenes, i could picture vanessa, lance,Lucas all plotting to get rid of Victor Newman if they had the chance!!

    Probably right before, I think in one of the Lorie Compilation scenes Vanessa mentions talking to Victor about the Proxies. 

    They might have interacted twice because i remember reading in 1981 in one of the recaps that Vanessa was about to attack Lorie and Victor walked right in basically and Vanessa obviously acted civil, i would love to see that scene it sounds very rare!!

    Diane and Jill sound intriguing for sure! As do Nikki and Nina have Rose in common. 
     

    I feel like Nina and Sharon could have been friends based on their somewhat similar backgrounds and Nina could have given Sharon advice on how to handle the Newmans specifically Victoria. 

     

    Of course years later they became friends but I do wonder what would have happened if a 1995 Phyllis crossed a 1995 Lauren, probably a massive cat fight with Lauren as the victor lol. Speaking of Lauren has she ever even had a story with Ashley? 

    Oh Nina/Sharon do sound interesting both passionate about the way they feel about situations, i think ive seen some interaction with them but nothing significant just more like occasionally seeing each other around town.

     

    Nina/Phyllis would be super epic and i was happy when they had that argument in 2012, that was just the exclusive peek of what could have. It's sort of weird how Nina and phyllis didn't clash prior before since Phyllis/cricket have beef that goes back to the mid 90's. In the 1994 episode of Phyllis running down Paul/Christine i think it was Nina who answered the phone but didn't know on the other end it was Phyllis who was trying to figure something out but i forgot in case anyone can fill that blank in?'

    I think Phyllis had one scene with Lauren in 94/95, and they didn’t like each other very much? It was once online but not sure if it is now. Lauren and Ashley were both in the Terrible Tom storyline but not sure if they interacted much otherwise.

    Oh really i never knew they met that early on i would love to see that scene and what gathering that bought them together, i assume it had something to do with Danny connection?

     

    Ashley/Lauren i never thought about that but I think they would make good sparring partners or 2 smart business women that get along on a business relationship. Also again i find it weird that Ashley never clashed with lauren over how badly she treated traci in the 80's!!

     

    This is random but i always thought it would be such rich gold if katherine/Vanessa prentiss had crossed paths or where in the same storyline together or against each other and they have something in common they dont like Lorie but Vanessa hate is a bit deeper.

  15. Now I Know bill bell was good at keeping characters in certain bubbles for long periods of time but it makes me still think if certain characters were grouped together gradually what the stories could be.

     

    For example Nikki and Nina would have had Maybe been a good friendship, they both have some history in common like rose de vill, also nikki daughter Victoria and Nina beef in the 90's over ryan and i think Cole? Im not sure but i know Ryan for sure and Nina didn't look too happy when she found out paul had a long lost kid with Nikki.

     

    I also think Diane and jill would have had some iconic girlfights just like how Diane/Phyllis did, back then when jack was sleeping with Diane i think jill was also in his orbit a lot. Did jill ever find out that jack was a player including having patty around also.

     

    There was a clip on YouTube of Malcolm comforting Sharon about cassie, i picked up some chemistry between them i thought was interesting cause i don't think they have ever been in each others orbits. Both gorgeous looking with beautiful bodies and warm personality traits they could have actually been a interesting couple...how do you think nick would react?

    So the show does put effort into things on occasion (i.e. Dina's farewell).  I know a lot was said about Dina's complicated relationship with Jack and Ashley..but what was her relationship with Traci like?

     

    Phyllis is a played out character..and MS needs to reign it in

    I know it's sort of funny when they wanna put good work in you can the big difference compared to majority of this hem and hah dialogue.

     

    I'm going to miss Dina as i knew her time was coming soon i just had hoped they could have done something to make her last but i guess it's the ending of an era. She will be missed dearly

    Have you seen the vault posted in the Y&R: Old Articles thread? This full episode is in there, and there's a bunch from 1975.

     

    I hadn't watched this scene in a long time. It resonates. Poor Jill trying to subtly bring up her mom's job, Katherine not hearing (deliberately? or is she that consumed with herself?). Such good dialogue for such a simple scene. And that shot of Jill entering the house for the first time and supporting a drunken Kay... what a contrast from Kay's final scene before Jeanne's passing. I love old Y&R cause I always notice something new.

    Do you know how old she was in this scene? All those characters had powerful scenes in those and even if it was a simple scene of them talking there was always something the sparked your interest even in what they were talking about.

    Is Phyllis supposed to be wasted today, or is MS just more affected than usual?

    All i can think of is 90's Phyllis compared 2020 phyllis arguing with Abby, 90's Phyllis would have had Abby [!@#$%^&*] her pants or probably would have tried to murder her lol

    I can’t get into this anymore. I took a break when I went back to work. Today I was home early and just can’t bother. I don’t know what it is. I don’t like Phyllis. I liked Hilary but not Amanda. I like Theo and Lola but they aren’t on today. The Newman’s are all dull to me. This Adam story is ridiculous. 
    is it the writing? Did the break with the classics ruin the current stories? 

    I don't think any amount of break time from the current show will have any effect on how the writers that are just not getting it right, if anything the classics should have inspired them to put some more juice into there sinking show.

    Anne Meachem was on The Brighter Day and Kim Johnston was Diana on ATWT.

     

    I'm trying to think of performers who had fairly prominent roles on a show but never accepted another daytime gig.

    Y&R

    Trish Stewart

    Pam Peters

    Thom Bierdz

    Brenda Dickson (!)

    Wings Hauser

     

     

    Lol from what i heard pam Peters hardly wanted to be on the y&r set, what did she refuse to do? I heard one day while filming she got up and left the building.

    Of course they had Sharon still make excuses. I will never understand the Shadam fascination. That was the best part of Hartley’s Adam. He wasn’t in Sharon’s orbit AT ALL.

    I remember justin Yardley more being in Chelsea/ Newman's orbit but i think your right him and sharon never crossed paths unless they we're in the same room for an event.
