I posted it a couple of pages back: let’s just be happy and count our blessings!!! 1. one would need a Dutch VPN which seem to be rarer than for other countries 2. Videoland is a subscription service, so even if one would get access, one had to pay a monthly fee and make sure that non-Dutch can subscribe 3. one would have to find a way to download from the site, not knowing their coding... that said; I’ll happily stick with Amy Silence‘s uploads. In 10 days she will hit the first major gap of the Marek Logan uploads and Im pumped to see those missing 15 (?) episodes!!!

Nope, you can see at the botton under description what it is in those "tapes": besides 2 B&B episodes ther eis local news, Y&R, ATWT and GL...

Just in case no one misses THESE: https://archive.org/details/SmokesVHSTape1120/Tape+1120+Disc+2.ISO Two B&B episodes from July 1992 which are VERY interesting. I must have missed on June-October 1992, I think, 'cause didn't know how long many of the departing characters had stayed that year or came back. Case in point: Blake, Clarke, Kristen are all still around in these episodes... The second episode is HILARIOUS: the finest Spectra camp thanks to the late Darlene Conley and Schae Harrison. They are spectacular during the comic relief designer audition of "the baltic blouse!" and others. LMAO

Still have to double check but it seems like this is #1336 and #1337 of B&B

So cool: B&B has two episodes -> both in the "Disc 2" segment, the closing credits of the second episode can be fond in the beginning of Disc 3... Super awesome - Summer 1992 is rarely found online so far.

Mmh, I'm not sure.

She was a snotty child to say the least and acted VERY different from later on. Don't expect too much: it's classic soap cliché of long-missing daughter returning rom boarding school and haboring a grudge against her parents. Yawn! But Bobbie Eakes has always been awesome, so...

It’s the first episode that was uploaded by MarekLogan with the polish dubbing. It’s a true miracle that a) the circle is now complete (1987-1992 online sort of...) and b) this time around in pristine picture quality and without the polish dubbing. I re-watched those episodes nearly 3 years ago and did not finish with the few 1992 episodes until earlier this year. But Marek Logan had occasional gaps - and mostly no closing titles. Therefore: bring it on AmySilence!!!

Before Forrester Creations secretary Trish there was CLAIRE at the desk. Any idea who she might be? Character Witnesses for Ron Deacon Mrs. Webber, a friend of Ron's mom Mr. Baker, Ron's boss Mrs. Pearson, Ron's high-school sweetheart

Thanks you've been great guys!! His on-screen name on B&B was Doug Russell I think I will put your savvyness to the text and soon post screencaps of the various character witness during Caroline's rape trial. They are now the most least important (LOL) missing actors to appear on B&B during its first year for who I could not find any credits... And here we go... Male Models at Forrester Creations and wannabe competetion in the romance department for Clarke in regards to Kristen: Greg: Andy Granger Lanford Kingsley

I thought he was VERY bland and was not sorry at all when the show dropped Dave. I read that, too. He has been speaking very fondly of B&B in later years...

I once chatted with Michael Maloney who worked at various soap mags AND B&B itself; he didn't have a clue on the reason for the Beth switch. As for recating Thorne: I once heard rumblings about alchol problems of Clayton Norcross back in the day. It may also be that Bill Bell was looking for a different Thorne because he was trying to match up Bobbie Eakes For a couple of days this would indeed be cool considering the flashbacks with Brooke and Eric they could show from the reallllly early days. It COULD be him

This is cool. Did not know about it at all. Clayton Norcross has aged A LOT better than his two successorsin the role of Thorne.

This is Mr. Russell Ron Deacon's first attorney before he switched to a female representative... He appeared in 2-3 episodes starting in #119 (next was #121). Any idea who palyed him?

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0809507/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1 It's definetely her! You're amazing!!! Thanks

Here are the best screecaps I could grab: this is Florence Deacon

Spring 2001 was soooooo wild and over the top - and amazing. The Morgan DeWitt story started off very boring, but turned into quite the gem. With Clarke and the python, Morgan falling over the balcony, the Steffy is eaten by a shark "twist", Dr. Tim Reid in LA and of course the climax with Ridge driving into the living room of her house.

As AmySilence’s uploads get really close to the start of season 3 of B&B, I find it fascinating how much house-cleaning has been going on, yet most characters got a proper send-off. Interestingly enough, THREE further additional original cast members (Storm, Katie and Rocco) are gone by March 1989 – leaving Brooke and Donna as the only middle-class Logan-universe relicts. Previously, the show dropped Dave, Mark, Beth and Stephen. Nick Preston who had a pretty timely Pretty Woman-type of storyline and could have easily stayed in Donna’s orbit, is gone as well. Even though Bill Bell killed Donna’s storyline completely, yet he chose her as the only to stay... Judging the acting chops, it was the right decision but it is still puzzling. BTW: Rocco is the only of the four departing characters not getting an exit explanation and will be gone the longest. Exactly 20 (!) years later he will suddenly pop up as an extra at Forrester Creations again. Katie and Storm will return for more or less frequent guest visits, in the case of Storm from 1990-1991 with a new face. It is kinda sad because Ethan Wayne had mostly mediocre material, but he an Lauren Koslow (Margo) clicked even though he was just serving as her attorney. On the behind the scenes front, Frederick Johnson joined the show as a writer in March 1989. He would quickly shift to Y&R and later work for maaaaaaaany different shows and have another stint at B&B in 2006 and I wasn’t aware previously aware that he got his start writing for the Forresters. I’m now curious when James E. Reilly will pop up in the credits and if it will correspond with certain storylines. Thoughts of those watching those classic episodes right now?

I could be wrong: I think, Ridge learns about it - but that's about it. Caroline is already out of Thorne's orbit when Deveney Dixon enters for her re-enactment scheme. The upcoming episodes on Amy Silence's channel are all pretty good!

Stephanie to Brooke: "You can't even shoot straight!" 2005 was an AMAZING year for B&B. The storylines Patrick Mulcahey pitched for Stephanie were very much over the top, but made for great moments and fabulous acting for Susan Flannery. Let me remember: Taylor came back as a wax mummy, Stephanie faked her heart attack, Kay Chancellor came to LA and changed the course for FC forever (or at least till the next rewrite in 6 months LOL!) and I'm sure there was more in that year... It was all soooo good. The begging of 2005 was probably terrible as it surely was Jack Wagner & Ashley Jones as a wannabe super couple Nick&Bridget 24/7.

Wow - what a treasure trove! This channel has quite a bit of full episodes of Y&R.

While this is true in the context that there were B and C storyline going on, what struck the most watching those 1988 episodes uploaded by Amy Silence: Ronn Moss was in nearly every single episode. The often touted balance of the Bill Bell years was none as to distribution of appearances is concerned. Ridge was on-screen for more than 200 (!!!!) episodes in 1988, he was also wayyyyyy ahead of everyone else in 1987 and it seems the same happened in 1989. This is something I always thought started in the late 90s/early 2000s when daytime execs tried to save the sinking ship with that focus group wisdom and favoritism of certain actors. Apparently not.

Wow - that’s a lot of episodes. Just the screenshots look Already great with Dina, Kay, Chris, Lauren, Neil&Dru. Cant wait to watch these. After your continuing labor of love to make these treasures available for the public, I think I will finally have to make time to watch ALL of them. Seems like you have now collected a good third of Y&R of the years 1990-1993. 🙂
