Victoria seems exhausting to be around.

I get so tired of hearing comments that women are exhausting, hysterical, unhinged, cray ... because they speak up.

Greg Rikaart, Judith Chapman, Christian Le Blanc talk about Baldwin-Fisher family week

I just want a week of big soapy reveals.

Or incorporate the 11/25/1991 episode into some theme

I agree with the poster who said that these classic episodes have shown us an Olivia who is REALLY hard to like. I wasn't watching much when Olivia first aired. I'm sure there must have been times when Olivia was enjoyable. Can anyone recommend some epis where she she was loving and/or fun?  Even if they aren't on youtube, I could read the recaps.

(Quoting Press Release)
Tuesday, July 7:
Whip (Rick Hearst) and Deacon (Sean Kanan) butt heads, explaining that there is no way that Brooke would ever betray her daughter, Bridget, and that Whip must forget and pretend Brooke's baby is really Deacon's. Meanwhile, Bridget, not realizing that her mother is pregnant with her husband Deacon's baby, throws her a baby shower. Taylor (Hunter Tylo), Kristen (Tracey Melchior), and Erica (Courtnee Draper) attend, as well as Megan (Maeve Quinlan) and Stephanie, both of whom know the truth about Brooke's secret. After the shower is over, Meagan assures Whip that Deacon won't do anything to jeopardize his relationship with Bridget, while Deacon heads over to Brooke's house to talk about their baby, where he professes his love for her. Original airdate: June 14, 2002.

Someone on another board said that was worded wrong in the press release (I'm not familiar with the characters so I wouldn't know).

They said the error was in this sentence:

 "Whip (Rick Hearst) and Deacon butt heads. explaining that there is no way that Brooke would ever betray her daughter, Bridget and that Whip must forget and pretend Brooke's baby is really Deacon's."

They said that it wasn't that Whip had to pretend that Brooke's baby was Deacon's. It was that Deacon had to pretend that Brooke's (and Deacon's) baby was Whip's, to keep Bridget from finding out the truth.

Did I understand that correctly?

Gawd, Keith Hamilton Cobb was hot. Tall and built like a brick sh!thouse.

Built like a Brick Sh!thouse
Originally "built like a brick outhouse" this term meant any project that was appealingly overdone or a level of quality that was better than was necessary.
(from definition #3 at urbandictionary)

I didn't care for his Y&R character.

I liked KHC on the sci-fi series Andromeda. (The series was kind of bad but he did okay).

Monday, July 6: Eric (John McCook) and Ridge (Ronn Moss) compete against each other in a fashion showdown in Portofino, Italy. Massimo Marone (the late Joe Mascolo), Bridget (Jennifer Finnegan), Sally (the late Darlene Conley), and Darla (Schae Harrison) watch Ridge, designing for Spectra Fashions, and Eric, as lead designer for Forrester Creations, bring their best to the "Portofino Challenge." Stephanie (Susan Flannery) and Clarke (Dan McVicar) emcee the event and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) set jaws dropping as she arrives in the showstopper via boat on the Ligurian Sea.

Didn’t they just show 1/6/03 a few weeks ago?  This better not become a regular of the shows now repeating episodes they already showed.

The B&B epi of Jan. 6, 2003 was supposed to have been rebroadcast on June 9, 2020, but it was officially preempted nationally in the USA for the George Floyd funeral.
I don't know if it aired in Canada that day, but it was preempted in the USA.
I don't know if they uploaded it to cbs.com or not, but if they did, they took it down.
It officially "didn't happen".
So B&B is having a "do-over" of the rebroadcast, this time on MONDAY July 6, 2020.

Y&R is doing something similar regarding the George Floyd preemption.
The Y&R epi of June 7, 2001 was supposed to have been rebroadcast on June 9, 2020, but it was officially preempted nationally in the USA for the George Floyd funeral.
It aired in Canada on June 8, 2020, but it was preempted in the USA on June 9, 2020.
They definitely uploaded it to cbs.com; but they have since taken it down.
It officially "didn't happen".
So Y&R is having a "do-over" of the rebroadcast, this time on July 9, 2020 

Although B&B and Y&R were both preempted on June 9,

the "do-over" rebroadcasts of the two shows happen on different dates.
B&B's do-over is Monday July 6.
Y&R's do-over is Thurs July 9 US (Wed July 8 CDN).

In the episode that won little Camryn Grimes an Emmy, little Cassie testified in court, and the judge awarded official foster care custody of Cassie to Nick and Sharon, with the possibility to legally adopt her in 6 months if all goes well. From July 19, 1999.

That was supposed to air July 26, 2020 in US (but many couldn't see it due to coronavirus press conference).

A new classic is July 27, 1999 

which airs on Mon July 6, 2020 US (Fri July 3 CDN).
The Newmans have a party to celebrate that Nick and Sharon were awarded custody of Cassie. This party epi originally aired several episodes after the other one.

So ...  I went into the archives of "rec.arts.tv.soaps.cbs" to see if there were any comments about the Newman celebration party episode.

I found these comments ... So cool to read it now ...

From one poster:
7/28/99
Now that Cassie's two year front burner story is over, what will happen to Camryn Grimes? Scares me.

Reply from another poster:

7/29/99
Me too! Camryn Grimes is wonderful; IMHO the best thing about Y&R! You know the writers don't like anybody to be happy for TOO long, so maybe there will be a problem with the final adoption. I don't want to see Cassie unhappy, but it's better than not seeing her at all! Camryn Grimes should have won the Younger Actress Emmy!

Global has episode #11720

for CBS to air on from July 10, 2020

IMDB has wrong date/episode number correlations for 2019 and 2020.

The correct date/episode correlation for this one is:
#11720 from July 3, 2019

Devon and Elena go to the carnival as their first official date. (Devon says their attempted date at the grand opening of "Society" restaurant doesn't count because that was the night that Neil died).  Victor is ill and Victoria is running the business, but Nikki catches Victor looking at some paperwork, so she pulls him away to spend time having fun at the carnival.

(The rest of the episode is Adam/Phyllis, Nick/Chelsea and Chelsea's husband Calvin. And a whiny drunk Summer.). Ugh.

Edit to add: the carnival scenes are only a few minutes of the epi.

Rumors/speculation .... that Episode 7150 might be repeated because it was preempted in USA June 9, 2020 but aired in Canada June 8, 2020.

Was there an actual official preemption?

Did anyone in the USA watch it live or catch on DVR?

It's kind of disappointing. It's a repeat after all and it was posted online. If they reair it again it's taking away an episode from us. It's not like that one is so great that it must air on TV.

Confirmation that it was preempted for George Floyd's funeral.

Indeed it was. Wonder if they will also perhaps re-air Camryn Grimes’ Emmy win ep since that was entirely pre-empted as well. 

Regarding episode 7150 (Shick fantasy tent date) from June 7, 2001:
The USA national preemption on June 9th was for George Floyd's funeral which was more like a national event.  

Normally, Y&R posts something on twitter (and sometimes facebook) when when there is a preemption, explaining the situation.  However all Y&R and B&B social media went completely silent on June 1st, except for retweeting/reposting the official CBS  Black Lives Matter support statement.  Other than prepared weekly promos, there was nothing from B&B and Y&R social media for two weeks. Just silence. I had no idea that the epi had been preempted in the USA because I watched it on Global.

Episode 7150 did get uploaded to cbs.com, and some viewed it there, but .... apparently it has been taken down since then?

Regarding episode Episode 6673 from July 19, 1999 (Camryn's Emmy win), which was planned to air on Fri. June 26, 2020 in USA:
I know there were interruptions due to Pence's coronavirus update. but was the episode "officially" preempted?
This time Y&R social media accounts were active. However there was nothing from Y&R social media about any preemption. But Y&R spent that entire day posting fifty gazillion things on their social media accounts about the 2020 Emmy awards show which was airing that night.
I'm not a soap insider so I don't know how to determine what an official preemption is.

July 1: December 29, 1994

So they're going to air the July 2019 carnival? I'm glad there's Teriah stuff but I'm annoyed that it's just a few weeks after Stafford's return. They gave us two Sandra Nelson episodes. I don't want recent years, but if they have to do recent years then I want a Tognoni Phyllis epi.

The irony of watching all these Y&R classic repeats, many of which have Victoria Rowell as Dru and Scott Reeves as Ryan, some in the same episode. It's like I must watch and can't watch at the same time.

For CBS Thurs July 9, 2020.

Global says this is #7150 .

but that was already rebroadcast on CBS June 9, 2020.

 

Did someone get June 9 and July 9 mixed up?
 

#7150 from June 7, 2001

Broadcasts of soaps get cut off all the time lately with Covid, politics, racial injustice, and general global chaos.

#7150 description: Nick and Sharon arrive via horseback to a lovely area far out on the ranch property where he has arranged for a romantic evening in a tent-like structure with exotic food and costumes. Newly-reconciled Billy and Mac happily privately discuss the future. Meanwhile Jill is annoyed to learn that they had reconciled. When Christine calls Paul from Hong Kong, Isabella answers Paul's phone. Michael calls Christine in Hong Kong and suggests she take a job offer in Australia. Malcolm and Olivia are divorcing and discussing custody of Nate. Malcolm is dating Alex and wants dating advice from Neil.

To think there was probably a large number of people who cheered when Phyllis mowed them down, lol.

I have been reading the "rec.arts.tv.soaps" newsgroup which included Y&R through December 1994. And then the "rec.arts.tv.soaps.cbs" newsgroup which is where Y&R went starting in December 1994.  There was a lot of loathing of Christine.

The person who recapped the hit-and-run episode on the newsgroup in 1994 concludes their report with this "How exciting!!  My first day as an updater and I get to report the squashing of the bug."
