Question: When Sheila switched over to B&B in 1992, she still used her real name despite being declared dead after the farmhouse fire. In theory, wouldn't credit card companies, or some kind of billing agency realize there'd  been some activity using her name in LA? I know its a soap but it hit me to question how Sheila was able to keep her past hidden from the Forresters, not having used an alias.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm reeeally hoping some wonderful person sees the Vault and adds full episodes or edits from 1978-80 concerning Kay and Jill and their storylines and also full episodes from 1983 with early appearances of Lauren, Brenda's first few weeks after her return, and pretty much the whole year LOL! I'm also hoping the end of June-early July 1987 show up with Jess Walton's first weeks as Jill and Phillip III's death from May 26-June 1, 1989. I lastly want to see all the episodes from 1994 involving Rex's shooting, death, and aftermath. If we get those, we'll be on easy street!

I agree. those clips of Phillip III's death from 1989 are so rare.. I wish someone will upload them to the vault. The scene of Jill blaming Kathrine in the hospital room after Philip died.. "first the father, and now the son".. gosh, it was so sad. and Jill wore red to his funeral because she didn't want to say goodbye all dressed in black.. Y&R was so good back then. 

 

And of course I eagerly wish to see again the episodes from 1994 involving Rex's shooting, death, and aftermath. again- very rare. never saw those episodes online (I refer to everyone gathering at the hospital and Katherine's finale scene with Rex, and of course comforting her enemy Jill who didn't have a chance to see Rex before he died..) and of course the memorial for Rex.. it was a really sad episode. Katherine, Gina and Danny were so devastated.

Lol, I have watched that ep multiple times and never once recognised her. Thanks for that. I know there was a character named Rebecca, I assume she played her, as Kathy is never mentioned in synopsis during the cult story. Though we could just say it was Kathy and she changed her name.

I am fairly certain Rebecca and Paul slept together as part of the cult story, so maybe this is where Doug and Cindy fell in love, awwwwwww. Haha

i believe they did so Dylan should have come from that relationship if they had to give Paul another child.Maybe Cindy could have returned and flashbacks used. Instead they rewote stuff for the ridiculous Paul/Nikki/Dylan story.

Y&R has all that history available and they fluck it up.

Even Ian ward part of the story or was it Simon that i use to read about was the to g leader in the cult story, why didn't they bring him back so they can use those 1980 flash backs.

 

They could have been creative and even brang Peggy Brooks back to help nikki and Paul when the story was unravelling.

      Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.

      I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.

      I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

      That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.

      Oh good, so I don't have to wait too long haha. I'm glad she cares about seeing Bill graduate. I'm guessing I'm in for a bumpy ride between Bill and Matt, if he's going to be his caretaker? Who else could it be, maybe Josh?

      Maeve makes a few sporadic appearances, but returns full-time the next spring/summer. She's back in time to see Bill and Michelle graduate, although she skulks around town and wasn't going to tell anyone she was alive. She comes back wearing this HUGE hat---which was a throwback to the old Vanesaa. lol.

      Aww, yeah it's very heartbreaking and I mostly enjoyed the Nola/Vanessa scenes because they finally let their walls down and came together in a beautiful moment. So Nola was at the hospital already and bumped into Vanessa, who had MRI papers that fell out of her hand and Nola went down to pick them up and asked her what was going on. Later, Vanessa confided in her about her disease. Then, Nola told Zachary on the beach (he prodded her and already alluded to knowing something was going on with Van), and then Vanessa found out she told him and got a little upset. Now, however, Nola is strangely absent while everyone is mourning her death. I'm curious if Nola will actually tell people about her MRI results. I would assume so. Only Nola, Rick, Roger and Zachary know anything, although there is the MRI results letter from the mail that everyone has missed seeing at home. I'm sure it'll all come out at some point. But... I just saw the next episode and the opening already cut Vanessa out and added Dahlia and Zachary. I guess Maeve is gone for a long time

       That will break my heart seeing the town continue to mourn her and assume she's dead. I can't wait to see her return though, and I have to imagine feelings will be torn between loving that she's alive and being very angry she did all of this. While I hate what Vanessa is doing, I'm happy to hear it's not totally against her character. I think you're right, had Henry still been around, she wouldn't put him through this. I'm still surprised she is with Bill, though. I get her feelings on Matt, because she wants him to move on, but still very heartbreaking. I'm glad this was Maeve's choice to have a break vs. being fired.    Interesting, so I'm curious to see who they eventually pair Phillip with. They're flirting with a Phillip/Annie pairing, but I'm not sure if they'll go that route with the Jeva drama, her growing pill addiction, and Rick's past with her.  Ugh, yeah I'm so sad to see Bridget do a total 180 in the last couple weeks. She has always been a strong character from what I've seen, but now she's just bending over backwards to get Hart to love her and it reeks of desperation. Yeah, sure, this new Hart is eye candy, but I'm already tired of seeing Hart/Dinah have sex all over Springfield and the Cayman Islands haha.

      Yes.  I remember them together during the early summer of 1986.  They didn't share scenes again for 30 years until 2017 because Carrie wasn't on the show when Anna returned during Sydney's kidnapping.
