It's not... it's just the stupid people who did the poster originally used a different background than the original shot had, and they cut around his HAIR... so that's what your'e seeing. So yes, it's a cut and paste... but not his head on another man's body, it's his entire head and body on another background.

I was reading a Digest issue from 1994 or so and they said people were writing in complaining about Nikki doing needlepoint and about how dull her life had become that she was doing needlepoint.

Do you remember this? I wasn't watching every day so I must have missed it.

Dull? I wouldn't say that, Nikki still had plenty to do that year, Jed, fighting with Victoria (to name a few)

I guess people thought that she stayed on that ranch too much, which is definitely true, than again it was one of the most distinctive things about her back then.

It's funny that after watching and uploading my classic Y&R episodes, I don't think Nikki was as much as a couch potato alone at her ranch as we all thought.There are a handful of episodes of her leaving the ranch, so its best to say that maybe she stayed at the ranch about 75% of the time.

Chris and Snapper's Wedding

In this episode, Chris Brooks and Snapper Foster are married. The program begins at the Brooks home as the family prepares for the wedding. Chris's mother and sisters, who are her bridesmaids, gather around to show their support and to follow the wedding traditions. Chris also takes this time to individually thank and bid goodbye to each member of her family. At the Foster home, Mrs. Foster takes Greg aside and commends him for his participation in the wedding, despite the fact that he is also in love with Chris. She also speaks to Snapper on the subject of love and reminisces about her own beloved husband. The wedding itself is flawless, as Chris and Snapper blend the traditional with some special touches of their own.

Don't know what date this but would have been 1974

Jed Andrews and Laurie Brooks discuss Jed's plans for divorcing his wife, Betty, and the alimony arrangements. After Jed leaves, Brock Reynolds arrives and tells Laurie not to destroy Jed and Betty's marriage. The following events also occur: Stewart Brooks talks to his daughter, Leslie, who is worried about Brad Eliot; Laurie invites Betty over and gives her advice about how to save her marriage with Jed; and Leslie confronts Brad about his deceptive decision to allow others to believe he is dead.

1976 episode

Liz Foster bares her soul to her son, Snapper, and discusses her decision to pull the plug on the life-support system that keeps her husband, William, alive; Brock informs Joann that Peg will not marry Johnny since she is still recovering from the trauma of rape; Joann wonders if she still has a chance to win back her ex-husband; Mrs. Chancellor brings a gift for Jill's son on his first birthday and reveals that she has known all along that her husband fathered Jill's child; and Snapper overhears a detective talking to a nurse about the suspicious circumstances surrounding William Foster's death

    • I really didn't start watching the show until season 12 when I was a teen, so I only caught the last three years. I LOVED the show over all though...even that part of 13 that was a bit messy! So, it's been a treat streaming the previous seasons on Plex. I'm amazed at how well so much of the writing holds up over 30 years later. Far better than a lot that we get today! For the most part, stories move along at nice pace with good twists and turns! I just finished season 11, so I'm finally picking up where I started watching all those years before. When I started watching as a teen, Laura had already died, so while she was mentioned pretty often, I didn't have much background with the character. CM was an amazing actress and had chemistry with everyone. So, it's a bit of a headscratcher that they didn't seem to have any idea of what to do with her starting at around season 7. Her scenes at that point are mostly short, brief, and she has very little true story right until the episodes where she's dying in 9. I wonder what it was about the character that the writers couldn't figure out what to do with her. Also, Ben's exit storyline was a bit confusing for me. I never really got who this woman was who was stalking him and this "secret organization." The whole plot seems like it should be on a different show. Michelle Phillips and Nicolette Sheridan have really fun mom/daughter/frenemies chemistry. I remember having a huge crush on PP's Michael and being disappointed when he was written out at the end of season 12. 
    • mayoclinic: Symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder and how severe they are can vary. People with the disorder can: Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration. Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment. Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements. Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are. Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate. Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people. Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important. Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them. Take advantage of others to get what they want. Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others. Be envious of others and believe others envy them. Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited. Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office. At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they view as criticism. They can: Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special recognition or treatment. Have major problems interacting with others and easily feel slighted. React with rage or contempt and try to belittle other people to make themselves appear superior. Have difficulty managing their emotions and behavior. Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change. Withdraw from or avoid situations in which they might fail. Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection. Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, humiliation and fear of being exposed as a failure. --- Or maybe Leslie simply has Soap Villain Syndrome.
    • Ambryn Michelle and Trisha Mann-Grant are easily the most charismatic actresses to grace daytime in a longggggggg time. This show wouldn’t be as good without them, IMO. 
    • whatever she has is far worse. Narcissism is just a symptom for deeper issues.

    • What is it? I already know Ambyr was electrifying.
    • The show isn't great right now, but I do hope it can stay on, unlikely as that may be. I guess at least it's better than this time last year. I will say it doesn't really feel like Shortland Street anymore.
    • You guys are going to die when you watch the first scene of today's episode.
    • True. We agree here. She is far from done.
    • Jacob's brother is named "Luke" and their mother is named "Darlene", for the sake of specifics and all.
