That reminds me of a supposed scene from the 70's where Jennifer, Katherine and Vanessa apparently ended up in the same plastic surgery doctor's office...I hope that's true and we see that episode someday!

re The Allegro.

The original GC watering hole was Pierre's (?) as seen in the first episode.

Pierre (Robert Clary) ran it and Sally McGuire was a waitress there.

Leslie owned The Allegro I believe and Brock ran it for her.

Once Pierre died was the Allegro on the same premises or a totally new establishment? I think the latter.

Bill Bell needed a meeting place so had Leslie buy a restaurant.

Later The allegro morphed into Jonas' after Leslie had it remodelled to resemble the original Jonas' located in another town (when Les got amnesia and deserted GC)

Then when Leslie left town she sold it to Gina who renamed it.

Yay! So much good stuff in that period: Dina's return to Genoa City, the GOAT wedding, the beginning of the eternal feud and the eternal triangle...

 

You should be knighted by the Queen!

I'm so glad you all enjoyed the 1978 episode! By the way, the actress playing Lorie is definitely Victoria Thompson. It was while JLB was off on maternity leave.

Oh wow, how long was the theme sung during the ending credits?  Seeing those sets from the 1975 episode just goes to show that you can do elegant without an enormous set.  What you really need is creative talent who can build tasteful and intimate set design.  Okay the bar where Brock was looked a bit seedy but my point stands for the other sets.

Thanks for posting these episodes.  I look forward to seeing the episode from '78.

    • @Contessa Donatella, Make sure to cite your sources when making claims such as "apparently she just inked a new deal." This information has not been reported anywhere and is therefore not known to the public, unless disclosed by the actor in question themselves. Once again, stop stating information as fact without providing a legitimate source. What you read or hear somewhere, from either message boards or on social media, does not make it true. This includes information from your "sources."

      Sorry. 
    • I don't believe it either, @kalbir.  Ironically, I think KL's first producer, Joseph B. Wallenstein, ended up producing "Hotel" as well.
    • Yes, and by the time the 2000's rolled around Katherine was a saint and a dynamic business women. Hard to connect with the drunken lush isolated in her mansion of the 70's.
    • For once, I agree with Maurice.  AMC and OLTL had seen better days, IMO, but to assume that the audience would stick around for "The Revolution" or "The Chew" was pure hubris on the network's part.
    • It is funny to think of how the character of Philip II, and the recasting of Jill, really changed the trajectory of Kay.  One assumes she would've mellowed with time, naturally.  But, as someone who started Y&R @ 1986 (when Brad married Traci), I rarely associate Kay with her more venomous past.
    • At Santa Barbara I think she inherited a very strong structure. I also think it's the first time she exhibited the Peter Principle & was promoted just one step above her level of assured competence. If she'd stayed in Music Production I guarantee you she'd have more awards & also a stellar rep.  Oh, we totally agree then.  Betty Rea GL 1970-1996 & at 82 she died 12-23-99. Worked for the show for 26 years. Shorter time at ATWT. GL had no casting director from 1996 till 1999 when  Rob Decina came on board. (He found Tom Pelphrey at college in NJ.) he was 1999-2009, so bitter ender.  Jill GL 1989-1994, so I would guess that Betty was pretty tired & Jill just ran over her, which probably made her last years miserable because this lady was legendary! All years from imdb which CAN be wrong. 
    • I'm not sure I agree with that either.
    • I think the Ralph story was a one of those Kay redemption stories that came up every so often where she would vow to make better choices. I guess Ralph appeared at the mansion for work and was friendly towards Kay and Liz encouraged it.  There would have been a bit of comedy with haughty Kay attempting to relate to down to Earth Ralph. How it was resolved I don't know. Maybe as simple as Kay announcing she wasn't interested? Did Liz and Kay ever interact until Jill got pregnant/Phillip's death? I don't think so and at that point they would not have been friendly. Liz very much knew her place in dealing with the likes of Kay Chancellor.
    • i've never seen any videos of this ivan! if anyone finds any id love to see haha if anyone has any of the videos from the 1984 plots besides the couple clips on youtube i'd love to see those too !
