God, in my next life I want to be as suave as Eileen Davidson.

Stakes. Melodrama. Glamour. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed the show back then. Thanks.

He did start the decline. He relied on stunts all the time. He was not a talented writer IMHO but at least the show still felt like Y&R.

Saved them right away! 1999-2001 is my favorite era of the show. I think that's when Y&R perfected its formula.

I'm in Heaven! Thanks!

I loved that trashy story!

That's amazing! Thank you!

That was my favorite part of the show. You would never see Victor hanging out at Crimson Lights (albeit to visit his family). You would never see random people sitting in Victor's office chair etc. I miss that.

I think Malcolm debuted in the very same way... through a phone call!

Lovely.

Exactly...

I remember that! She did not interact with VR though, right?

And they're not streaming, right?

Wow! I'd love to see this. Isn't it bizzarre that in a short space of time Jill had to interact with two different, good-looking male characters both named Brad?

Amazing work! I loved it. Kudos to you!

I'm pretty sure it was Cane's introduction. I wasn't watching anymore though.

Haha! Exactly. No more 'Love fever' Uhm they actually aired one episode a day. Which had become quite rare for US soaps in Italy. Italian networks usually cut episodes halfway or add another portion off the next episode just because they see soaps as fillers for their line-ups. I was so sad to see the show go, but considering what it had become it was no huge loss.

Nothing. The show got canceled in 2007 in Italy lol

I don't have KMK's episodes on tape but I do remember her. She had no spark whatsoever as Drucilla...

I agree! I guess TPTB thought she was too old to play the mother of a 29 year-old...

ICONIC

Why would SS stay longer on the show if LK was ready to take over? OMG LK acted like a bratty teenager when she first came on... I think with some actors you can tell they don't have an ounce of evil in them. The same happened with Jess Walton on Y&R. I mean, I don't know these women personally, of course, but they strike me as people that would not hurt a fly... Hence they were not suited to play vixens like at all.

Gosh, back then I thought those years were godawful. In retrospect, the show was decent compared to what it is now! Why was the original Felicia recast? She looked fine. They have cemented LK in the role, even though it is extremely recurring.

Old P&G soap episodes used to be streamed in 2008 or so. I know because I began watching AW thanks to that. I can't imagine it was too much of an investment to stream them, but of course they took it down after a while, so something did go wrong I guess... Sad.

But Sony is not involved in B&B.
