Brad and Sharon was such a flop. I always thought they were a good couple until I started rewatching these episodes again. Nick and Phyllis however were a million times worse. Phick should have remained an affair.

Dru and Neil handled Devon and his relationship with Yolanda really well! Dru obviously started to get a bit jealous when that bitch started getting a bit too close to HER son and her man. Don't get me wrong, Devon should have his birth mother in his life too but she gave up those rights a long time ago and I just feel like Dru is his mother now.

Was Kevin obsessed with Mac or something? That whole thing just seemed so damn creepy.  JT and Mac was nauseating too though. I also don't like this actress who plays Mackenzie

I forgot that Michael & Lauren were front burner during this time. This must have been their last BIG story unless you want to count the Carmine thing. I wish they could have found a way to give Tom and Sheila a more perminant role on the show. Those two had so much chemistry

Just watched Michael & Lauren's wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony. They need to bring back the colonnade room (unless it's gone forever) because the church weddings don't do it for me anymore.

I found it so odd that Lauren didn't want Paul to tell her anything about 'Jennifer' before her wedding and why she isn't more suspicious of this woman.

Nikki is an absolute BITCH to Ashley during that scene at the colonnade room regarding Abby and her supposedly 'poisoning her mind about Victoria'. Nikki can take several seats

No Problem! :) most of the Sheila/Lauren scenes in these episodes  were already on youtube uploaded by Aliehslive, Bpkalamazoo, etc....but I always love getting to see the full episodes, haha!

thanks for 5/16/90! it's funny as I just brought up the scene of Sheila treating Lauren for the miscarriage on another post, haha.

I still can't say for sure if this is Sheila's actual first appearance or not, but it's still pretty close regardless....hopefully soon the next set of May 1990 episodes (May 10-15,1990) that follow the recentish ones I posted last summer will surface, so we can find out for sure...

haha I did manage to collect a couple of scenes, but a lot of Bpkalamazoo's stuff has been blocked in my location now unfortunately. But upon checking just now, I do have the opening to January 13 of '93 with Sheila standing out in the Grainger hallway with that loveable smirk of success on her face.

 

On the subject, I did also collect the Masquerade Ball episodes of '91. October 1st has the first half cut off though, but 10/02-10/07 are fine.

Yeah a lot of their stuff has long been deleted, but I'm glad I managed to repost some of the stuff so far as full episodes....I meant to get Jan 13, 93 where Sheila turns her picture into the puzzle, but I held off only cause that episode apparently had some scenes missing, and I rather get the full show when it becomes available....

I had Oct 2-Oct 7 91 in my files too from other sources, but I think they are still on my old computer....I have been redownloading even my own youtube videos onto my computer....

Here's 2/23/93 (notice the very weird time jump between the episode before and this one, I really wonder sometimes what the editors were thinking....)

I know the feeling. I was ecstatic when I saw they had May 20th of 1992 available to purchase, but something like 80% of the episode is missing so I didn't even bother. I'm not certain, but I was hoping that was the episode where Sheila calls Eric Forrester for the job interview. Thankfully, that was one of the clips from Bpkalamazoo that I managed to save. I think it was mostly their B&B stuff that I neglected.

hahaha Oh wow, go Cricket. That's another thing I still have to check, whether or not they have the rest of the storyline with Michael digging his way into Christine's apartment. 

 

I have to say, being able to watch these episodes and see how Michael started out on Y&R is perplexing to say the very least. Hell, I almost wish some of the old Michael would pop up more often nowadays. I think that's one of the reasons having the likes of Tom, Carmine and Sheila around was so much fun.

I might be able to get the rest of those episodes at some point as they are between March 12-23, 93 which are available. These Ones from February I just got are the very beginning of all that (or at least the one Michael was in) and I do have the dates already right in between where Michael attempts to breakthrough only to be stopped by bricks, lol.

I love how most of these episodes feature both Michael and Sheila doing their various evil schemes in the same episodes, it really would have been a force to be reckon with had those 2 became a couple, but it also sadly shows we will never get that same amount of compelling villains the show had at one time.

6/15/1993 aka the funeral for the guy who really should have killed Victor

    • The Dallas finale was the highest-rated episode since October 9, 1987 (Gone with the Wind). Prior to the finale, the last Dallas episode to finish ahead of a new episode of Murder, She Wrote was October 23, 1987 (Tough Love). Prior to the finale, the last Dallas episode to finish ahead of a new episode of The Cosby Show was February 22, 1985 (Shattered Dreams).
    • 40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season. The Cosby Show – Cliff’s Birthday (season 1 finale, May 9): Clair and the children surprise Cliff by planning a birthday celebration around a Lena Horne concert. Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.

    • Charles Grant first appeared as Evan in September 1988. I was surprised to come across this item from December 1985, almost 3 years earlier: "Lots of action behind the scenes at Another World . . . I have bad news for fans of Christopher Holder (Peter Love). He will be leaving the show in the new year. I have heard that the producers are recasting the part and are also seeing actors for new roles. One of the main characters this spring will be Marlee [sic] and Victoria's father. The producers have been talking to Charles Flohe (John "Preacher" Emerson, Edge Of Night) about another new character to be featured. I will fill you in on the results as soon as I know." It seems obviously too early for anyone to have been planning to introduce Evan Frame. Based on the context he's not being considered as a recast of Peter. Maybe they were considering him for the character that turned out to be Neal, who started around the same time as Marcus Smythe as Peter?

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun! Just looking back at this thread, the recent end of & I have to admit I am surprised that several of you give it such high marks. Now, literally all I know about the modern reboot I learned from Slezak in Linda Dano's podcast & I must tell you I got a very different impression from what she said. If you are interested, those podcast episodes are still up even though Dano is not making any new ones. My impression from what she said was that they had no idea what they were doing & it was no wonder that the project was an abject failure She & many others were owed a ton of money. At the end the mid-level staff came out & basically said, they didn't know what to do, that the people were not here & they guessed it was over. So, as you can imagine I was appalled. 
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
