For some reason - beyond my wildest imagination - Darrin Brooks has always been super beloved by this show. SO I wouldn't rule out that he is on some sort of paternity leave wth Kelly Kruger giving birth to child no. 2. B&B actually gave Wyatt and Flo some story witht heir engagement and the proper "Logan" girls reunion in March for Flo and her aunts. This was surprising as it was little drama and moments the show usually skips. However, this couple was never THAT great and both characters are absolutely un-needed.

The SUPER short Quinn/Pam rivalry in November 2018 (?) was the best thing to happen to this show in ages, so I'm not surprised that a similar dynamic looks promising.

# deadweight PS: Thanks for sharing these!

Either Carrie Mitchum was sick in Spring 1991 or she already walked on the show causing B&B to finish the last three appearances with a tempActress.

It’s long needed change and makes him look more mature. And judging by his his Instagram he is going for a Fitness look (along with his wife) these days and therefore the shorter hair is spot on. As I’m watching B&B with maaaaaaany months of backlog, I’m not yet ready to worship Sheila on here, but I saw the photoshopped perfect family photo this week: ROFL! I really miss the days where she had a career. And I hated Brooke back then (for her slutty ways!), nowadays she is very likable as person, but the character is sooo bland without a proper definition as a working citizen.

After the contractual hickups from 1999-2002 and Brad Bell's VERY harsh way to show Tylo the door in 2002 - by showing Taylor dead in a coffin for an entire episode - her guest stint in 2004 and the fulltime surprise return in 2005 with no more contract dispute afterwards made it seem like the fences had been mended. Then, Brad axed Taylor in 2013 (?) in a SUPER dumb move as Taylor was paired with Eric and one of the bright spots on the show. Tylo was bitter and only begrundingly returned in later years - until the babyswitch/shooting Bill year which gave her some meaty material and recurring stint which lasted almost 12 months. I thought that Tylo while very rusty at first did okay to very good (scenes with KKL) during her final stint. Too bad, for personal reasons or else Tylo no longer wants to come back to the show... As for the recast: This will not work out well. PERIOD. Part of Taylor’s appeal was the long history and great chemistry with KKL. With Ridge already being recast it’s just not the same anymore if Taylor is also played by someone else. Especially for a group of characters like Brooke/Ridge/Taylor which has been onscreen for so long. Taylor is needed on the canvas but I don’t think that a recast - especially with Krista Allen who is sweet but unrecognizable - will do the trick.

Of course! I'll just need some more time to crunch the numbers and double-check.

The modeling story got pretty good with time and I liked the Rocco/Donna/Nick dynamic. As well as Donna & Bill - dropping this potential did not make mich sense, IMO.

This is really exciting. In addition of being able to relive those classic moments, we are also getting closer to have a Jason47 style data base for B&B! For instance: just a couple of episodes further and we will have the total number of appearances for such legacy character like Clarke, Margo and Jake (who departed in 1992). On a related note: I’m almost done with the entire year 1996. Therefore we will soon have the entire cast appearances from 1996-2021… A LOT if I recall correctly. I wasn't too thrilled about Macy's Bikini Bar days, though. Maybe it will be different to watch it as an adult...

I could totally see that it is the way they have stored these episodes because the log files from the Bill Bell Script Archive which were posted on this board years ago also went by scheduled air dates and not actual air dates…

It kinda looked that way…

Woohooo - Thank you!

+1

Saw this as well. What a touching picture!!!

Oh wow - thanks for sharing this tidbit. I’ve never seen 90% of Sheilas original run on Y&R, so this is unbelievable. I need to catch up with this and will then jump into B&B May 1992 like during CBS broadcasts. 😬

Thank you! Unbelievable and so exciting to be able to rewatch 1995. I’m currently on vacation and will first finish 1996, but then I’ll jump back in time…

I was stunned though that KKL’s maternity leave was very short. She did quite a lot of post-tapings, I guess. In my memory she was only gone for 4 weeks in total or so

Gotcha! So does anyone remember what happened last? The cliff scene from the promo clip with Deacon was way before his last. He stunned Quinn by being alive and covered in seaweed about 3 weeks (!!!) after his alleged death. This was around 2016/2017 with Quinn & Liam aka. Adam & Eve (a story which was sooo outlandisch that I loved every second of it). I think Deacon was eventually held accountable for a crime (which I cannot remember) and handcuffed at Brooke's house. He was mentioned since but never seen again; not sure if this was around the time in 2018 when the show completely derailed from its mid 2010s upswing?

I second that. Unfortunately, I don’t see Hunter Tylo back on B&B any time soon.

Has anyone seen the promos about the „surprise return“ and the „storm is coming“? Do we know what the hoopla is about? My wild guess: Is Deacon coming back? Or is it just mich ado about nothing?

Awesome that Videoland continues with the uploads. The German rebroadcasts always stopped at episode 1300.

Thanks for the update. Your effort is much appreciated!!!

IMO, THE BEST YEARS. Not sure if Taylor's Arabian Night hold up in 2021 but I was sooooooo hoooked back then. To say that I considered Sheila's story in the mid-90s spellbinding, shoudln't surprise anyone. LOL You're our hero. Thank you!

I’m super stoked as well. Looking forward to this a lot. Everything post episode 1300 is really hard to come by. Thankfully, episodes 2200+ is all in the vault already. I’m currently just 10 episodes shy to have rewatched the entire year 1996. I will soon publish episode counts. Meaning we are getting closer and closer to a Jason47 style database for B&B.
