Y&R: Old Articles

[YRfan23]

It always seemed like they would remember Phillip every Memorial Day...but they could have pushed back his actual death... it’s difficult to find full monthly synopses from 1975...maybe it’s more fun just to be surprised though?? Lol

I love surprises! As soon as I get them transferred, I will let you know!

[YRfan23]

Haha I’ve gotten many dates myself where the wrong days were given and I admit im a perfectionist in that regards, but it’s also fun to see what dates they end up being myself!

I'm the same way as far as dates go! I like to have the exact dates and the right ones as well!

[YRfan23]

It's definitely easier to track dates from 1986 onward, since I have that French Episode guide, but 1973-1985 is still tricky especially since not knowing when the show was preempted those days, is difficult......I'm still wondering if they preempted a lot for Watergate coverage in the show's first year??

That's a good question. Actually, my friend found a website (UCLA) that has scripts from the first several years of Y&R. Here's the link:

If you make an account, I'm 95% sure you can fill out a request form for a copy of the scripts. There is a fee but the friend I talked to said it would probably be $15.

Click on the Y&R section and you'll be able to see what all they have.

Thanks!  I Have that page saved on my bookmarks actually and using various 70's scripts found online that can be brought, it does help track some dates, hard to say what's 100% accurate though...

Ohh that sounds great about getting copies of the scripts! it can get pricey, but $15 isn't too bad....I wonder if they can just send them via email? 

[ltm1997]

I hope it's not too expensive, my friend wasn't totally sure that the price was $15, so don't take my word for it. I'm gonna email them Monday and get the lowdown on pricing and how they are delivered.

[YRfan23]

Yeah that would be nice to figure out! I wouldn't mind having some copies of certain scripts! if only it were the same for the actual Tapes too! LOL 

[ltm1997]

Tell me about it! LOL I'd get everything they had

I don't know if you've heard or not but Kristoff St. John has died! I am so sad. I just saw it on the news a few minutes ago.

Yes I'm sure people are just sinking it in, it's almost impossible that this tragic event has happened to such a good hearted person but nobody knows one person's pain inside
