I'm on it! I'm thinking of temporarily transferring out B&B 2010-2019 until I come up with a more permanent solution.

"Nina's love will smother Willow"

I'm sorry, but just how is Nina obsessive? Are we supposed to forget that Nina has been nothing but wonderful to Sasha when she thought she was her daughter? Or is this the kind of dialog that is written to validate pro-Carly-anti-Nina fans?

I’m surprised nobody mentioned Victor and Phyllis during the MAB years. 

When the other woman tells her lover to patch things up with his son, it can generally be seen as noble. But when Nina tells it to Sonny, it's somehow "manipulative" according to Carly stans. Literally everything Nina does under the sun is somehow "manipulative" - how??

I love how everyone that has commented doesn't want a Liam redux. Casey looked kind of not happy about that.

Shoutout to the two guys in the live chat who I'm convinced are the same person who keep begging for Maria Arena Bell to return to soap writing LOL.

Casey: "I never said that B&B will change forever, I just said that it would never be the same". Huh???

I haven’t been seeing the negative comments but saw this from the guy behind the Y&R retro vault:

 

That's me LOL.

I can't fault them for hyping up a return the fans would actually like. It's not like anything else on this show is worth watching.

What baffles me the most is that the comments on their latest Instagram post would have you think otherwise. I guess all the pearl-clutchers would rather see 80-year-old Victor going around and punching out guys a third his age again.

-Tessa and Mariah make an announcement.

Sheesh, how many announcements have they already made?????

The lack of Theo mention and also Billy’s words about Phyllis considering his own history with her were indeed strange. 

Theo was just a shiny new toy that Jack got bored of really quickly. I'm still bitter about the way he was treated and how Jack practically set him up for failure against Saint Kyle and Princess Summer.

Diane said the one thing that nobody else would to Jack about his relationship with Keemo. Keemo turned his back on Jack and he just let him.

I also don't understand the comparisons of Diane Jenkins with Sheila Carter on social media and other boards. Diane, like Phyllis, was of the scheming vixen type. Sheila on the other hand more or less fills the mold of what a soap villain is.

Is it just me or does Michelle Stafford pronounce "Diane" slightly different from everyone else for some reason?

It's not just you - she tends to put emphasis on the "Di" part of "Diane" so it kind of sounds like "D-aw-eye-ane" if you say it quickly haha.

Gaah, it was fun while it lasted!

Two people can play this game too.

Diane is an antagonist but not a villain or a crazy Patty-style stalker. If they are going to go in that direction I'd rather she had stayed dead.

Based on the YouTube comments of the promo video, you'd be surprised at how many people would disagree. Some are even comparing Diane Jenkins to Sheila Carter. 

What worries me is that if she's being put in Jack and Phyllis' orbit or Victor and Nikki's, she would no doubt end up being the loser of the story. It would be refreshing if for once she had the upper hand.

Ironically I watched the news report in Toronto after the Canadian airing of Y&R, but I had no idea that MM had a direct connection to the family until now. I'm so sad for everyone affected.

I don't hate this!. But I don't know if I trust JG with this.

Delete Delete Delete!

Meanwhile on another board...

I'm probably in the minority, but there was a brief period of Mal Young's tenure I rather enjoyed - shortly after SSM and KA's departure up until Hilary's death and the introduction of the Rosales clan. There were very solid moments like Nick finding out Christian's paternity/Chelsea leaving GC, the fallout from Sharon finding out about Abby and Scott's affair, Teriah angst, and probably the first few moments of the domestic abuse storyline. I think where it fell off was how JT's supposed murder dragged on, the Blood Abbott clause and Ashley messing up Jack's paternity, and how the Rosales clan ate up the show so quickly, though I did enjoy Mia. I cannot think of a storyline under JG's pen where I can share the same degree of warm sentiments.

Don’t know if this has been discussed yet on here or not, but can somebody PLEASE tell me the reason why B&B has been uploading every single episode (by premieres) from the show daily and is now on episode 527 and Y&R hasn’t done it yet??? It’s truly so frustrating because we all know that every single episode of Y&R has been saved and is just sitting in archives with nothing being done with them. They don’t understand what a goldmine they’re sitting on. 

Brad Bell owns The Bold and the Beautiful, so they have a lot more autonomy on how they can distribute the show from a rights perspective. Sony owns Y&R, so that makes distribution far more complicated.

Josh Swickard and Chad Duell were a HUGE missed opportunity on GH. Just sayin.

BTW the Thomas actor doesn't look like a Forrester at all.

Strange, I've always thought that Matthew Atkinson could easily pass off as Ronn Moss' son on-screen more so than Pierson Fode.

Hey everyone! I know I'm not a frequent poster, but it looks like I missed quite a bit of interesting drama here (sadly more entertaining than what the guys over at the Y&R writing team can come up with).

First things first, thanks @BoldRestless for always being my proxy/mediator in terms of passing on messages and the goings on here. I find quite often, the many issues that people will have opening the Vault is because they are using an old link to a server that I was previously on. Around 6 months into it, I had to migrate OneDrive servers because the previous server got nuked in functionality. Thankfully my current OneDrive server is going strong.

That being said, going on my Twitter page (@YRVault) will always guarantee you the newest link. If you still have issues, please use Private Browsing/Incognito Mode on your browser.

Secondly, I understand that storage space on the Vault is an issue. For those curious, The Vault is currently at 95% of its 5TB storage capacity. On one hand, this is wonderful because it means that this resource has managed to find a reach within the community where contributors are working tirelessly to ensure content is uploaded and we have a most complete archive as possible.

On the other hand, this also means I may have to create a separate Vault to relieve pressure. I'm personally a stickler for video quality myself, and while file compression is a decent solution to address this, pixel peepers like myself may notice a loss in quality. That being said, I thank @anon4520 for having all of these files converted to save space - I think everyone's current priority is to ensure as much content is available as possible as opposed to a nice HQ video.

I'm going to think of a new strategy to resolve this space issue. I may move out Y&R to a new OneDrive account and keep B&B as is as most people are currently using it. This will free up 1.54 TB, so hopefully that buys us more than enough time until I have to come up with another solution.

Another possible solution is to move from OneDrive to Google Drive via purchasing/acquiring an edu account, because Google Drive has unlimited storage for edu accounts. The tricky thing about that is acquiring an account to begin with - eBay has really cracked down on people selling these accounts so it's much harder to do now.

Remember to be kind to one another - though I'm administering the resource, this is ultimately a community effort and can't be possible without everyone who has shared. I'll keep you guys posted!

They waited to let her hair grow long enough to attach extensions, which looks far more natural than the wig. Based on the recent cast class photo pictures, she's about to get longer extensions.
