That is (mostly) great news! Luckily, 3399 is already in the Vault.

With some footage missing at the beginning, so not complete (or as good quality).  Grateful, but still, the perfectionist in me...

The great news: The official YouTube channel is carrying on after Season 13 with Season 14 in HD!

The bad news: They're already skipping 3399

It does suck the joy out of it when they do this.

I have decided... in the wake of the brutal hate Brooke/KKL has been getting on youtube... inspired by your guys's comments... to do something of a tribute music video, showcasing some of her most racy moments, absolutely on purpose - it's kinda... out there... know that. I know that it will trigger some haters. But I can't stop smiling and laughing watching it. I hope you like it - and spread the word and the positivity around - share it so it can reach more people. Let's show KKL some love.

Love it! Take that haters! 

3345 was skipped in the current YouTube airings of Season 13.

They seem to hate playing funerals (Macy's). Even Taylor's funeral was skipped.

I think so too. Brooke has always had SO much storyline each year..... LIKE SOOO much. My husband one time told me - Brooke is like the only one who is in every single episode. And some years... she IS. Haha. KKL is amazing. 

She's in literally 2 out of every 3 episodes overall! She is The Bold and the Beautiful.

You're welcome.

That was 1990 I believe. What @I Am A Swede is referring to are when actresses were on pregnancy leave.

Sorry. I suspect they had too much story for Brooke to just write her out? Only a guess as to why.

I wonder why they only had a temporary recast for KKL and not any of the others.

Taylor had a temporary recast in Sherilyn Wolter, Ronn Moss had Lane Davies....

I still think Brooke is low key iconic for hand-delivering Macy divorce papers back in 2000 and was an unintentionally hilarious moment LMAO.

Oops! Trying to slip them under the door!

Much gratitude to the Angel for the latest 1997s! Particularly great because they contain the incidental music that their Youtube counterparts didn't have. So glad the music wasn't actually lost. Once we hit 2566 we will get to the point where the Youtube channel a year ago mysteriously stopped their Season 10 uploads midway before completing Season 10.

Episode 3255 is missing in S13 (again, they made the video private instead of public and this time they don't seem to have realized it in time).

So annoying. It may be years now before we get an English version.

We will know very soon. This has happened before recently, where a known about to be skipped episode just like this did not get made public. I'm hoping it will be of course, but am not counting my chickens. It sucks because it can mean we will never get the replacement English version if it doesn't make it to VL (no guarantee they're going to licence the entire series).

It’s likely the private one. The entire season has been uploaded to the playlist, but only a handful of future episodes are listed as “public”, the rest are private. They’ve likely just forgotten to make 3243 public. Let’s hope we get to see it. 

They had played 2 episodes "live" today. 

I've just seen that they dropped 3243 without a "live airing". Wow. So maybe there's hope now when an episode appears to have been skipped. It was an easy conclusion to make given they have skipped episodes before.

It looks like they're going to skip episode 3243 on the YouTube channel tomorrow. 

For episode 2471 in the vault, it's missing the first segment (which the YouTube channel has). I'm not sure if this is an error or is just what VL have available?

Thank you to the Angel for the next 20 1997 episodes you've provided! Closer to finding out whether many of the coming episodes actually have the background music?

Yes. The real Thorne.

The most handsome of them all.

I used to think he was Ken Doll handsome.

Found this as a comment on the last episode of Season 8.

Could it be true?

I would totally support this move of restarting in HD were it actually true! 

If only they wouldn't skip episodes, have faulty audio and picture, or upload the wrong episode and misnumber them.

Can't wait to find out for sure.

3203 (Season 13) sound on YT.

Continued good news! Just checked all the upcoming S13 YT uploads and they are all the correct thumbnails from today (ep 3187) until episode 3207 (which is as far as they show the upcoming episodes).

The only missing episodes of S13 so far are 3151, 3152, 3159, 3165, 3170 and 3172. After that, it seems they have fixed the issue (hopefully!) and the season appears to be complete so far.

Hopefully this continues. Now only if they'd go back and replace them with the correct episodes and fix the episodes that have sound issues so far from Season 13...

Haha yeah. That voiceover lady's remark at during the credits: "Taylor's clearly been in some sort of spat, too. Most unusual to be punched in the upper lip only, though". Referencing the actress's obsession with cosmetic procedures. We never got voiceovers like that.

Probably just as well. It wouldn't fly nowadays! Not should it ever have.

It's interesting to compare episode 3186 that just aired on YouTube with the old British copy that's in the vault (Dec 2 1999). It appears the British broadcaster has re-jigged the scenes. I think I've come across this before and just thought it an error. Now it seems deliberate on the British broadcaster's part. Anyway, it's great to have an in-order, much higher quality episode available on YouTube now.

Again, the two latest episodes (3185 and 3186) are in 24 fps and they look jerky. You can't unsee it.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Thank you to the Angel for the latest Season 10s! Gratitude for much better picture than what is on YouTube. I've noticed #2471 though has the beginning bit including the opening titles missing. Can that please be replaced if possible?

2 - The season 10 fiasco with uploading episodes that have no background music, that we have SEEN on videoland THEY HAVE PERFECT versions of - just play episode 2544 for example - on youtube it is corrupt without background music and on VIDEOLAND - it's perfect.

So are you saying that from 2506 where this is no background music for at least 40 episodes (on YouTube), that VL have them all WITH music?

3181 (Season 13) that just "aired" on YouTube is quite glitchy around the 15m mark.

I can actually give you my opinion why THIS is not the tapes being old and etc.

I'm in agreement. Everyone is grateful that an effort is being made by the uploaders on the YT channel. I don't see it as being ungrateful if one complains. We just want better for something we care about. But I do agree if you can't try to do something right, why do it at all? It makes the viewing experience so frustrating.

Imagine if that was a new show airing on TV or something like Netflix...not knowing if an episode would be skipped, or delivered in bad quality, or shown without music. We wouldn't accept it for a new show, so why would the rules be different for an older show? As Althea has proven, they have been able to provide excellent copies to VL but skip, duplicate, crop and put inferior copies on YT when they have them available. I don't want to jump to the conclusion it's deliberate, but I do feel like there is a lack of care about it. When brought to their attention, they still don't go back and replace what's missed etc. It's like an "oh well" attitude. When VL have made an error, they've gone ahead and fixed the problem.

I would be so annoyed if this was the first time watching. I'd want to know what I missed. As for putting mislabeled episodes and bringing you back into Season 12 and wondering what the hell is happening to Rick changing his face back and forth from Jacob to Justin when the episode numbers are all in order??? Newbies would be so confused.

I would pay to download and keep all the episodes if they could assure me they would give me a quality product. I'd pay a couple of thousand to have them all to watch at my disposal and know they'd be around to watch in 20 years' time on a rainy day, perhaps when they've long disappeared from a streamer like VL or YT. 

I'm grateful. I just wish as much care would go into it as if it was handed to a die hard fan to complete the task. The show deserves that level of care.

3170 that "aired" on YouTube today from S13, is really 3126 from S12.

Maybe we should contact Casey on twitter and tell him this is happening? 

It's such a shame you cannot contact people directly (that I'm aware of) on YouTube. 

Most often, whoever looks after YouTube HAVE NOT remedied the mistakes, even after acknowledging being aware of them (skipped episodes, duplicated episodes, faulty audio, faulty numbering, episodes ending suddenly (partials), no music).

Just when you think they've started to care about getting it right with Season 13, they get it so fundamentally wrong and do nothing about it. It's maddening like others have said. With all these errors, it could be many, many years before a full set of English episodes are available. Hmph.

3162 is the right episode but it has some minor issues with the sound.

I've just had a look. Chunks of sound missing, jagged audio. The problems never cease.
