Members BoldRestless Posted November 29, 2020 Members Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) I love that so many people have been contributing big lots of videos to the Y&R Vault lately! The B&B one has been pretty active and I'm happy to see Y&R getting more activity too. There have been a lot of videos uploaded from 1989, 1990, and 1991. I plan to get to 1988 soon but got sidetracked with this project. As I was dating all of Nikki N's 1999 videos I kept notes on what was missing. She uploaded 132 videos! In some cases, like 11/2/99, fortunately the video she happened to be missing was already in the vault from someone else. Then I went through my own collection and added another 21 videos. Here's what's left, we're pretty close to having the complete year, I really hope someone here has the rest!

Members YRfan23 Posted November 30, 2020 Members Share Posted November 30, 2020 That was amazing to see!! So many rare clips and finally a glimpse of Erica Hope. Doug seemed as confused about the last clip as I was Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRfan23 Posted December 1, 2020 Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 I didn't realize Rick Springfield was on Y&R?? I guess here it was an U/5 role? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted December 1, 2020 Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 Update on 1999: I uploaded another 5 videos from the Chris S YouTube Channel and 2 from the old "R" YouTube Channel (now "Y R")... I've updated the list, please upload more if any of you have other episodes from that year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) To be fair to her, I don't know if anyone could have survived their hairstylist judging by that clip - Doug's hair looks lumpy and misshapen, like Playdoh left behind, while the beautiful Roberta Leighton has been assaulted by a demonic cereal bowl. I'm just shocked that we got to see her. I'm shocked that we got to see a number of those clips. The karate one was fascinating as it has that raw type of feeling which was sort of being phased out of the show by then, with the increasingly ossified Brooks sisters, Jill, etc. And it's such a reminder of how incredibly gorgeous and charismatic Doug Davidson was in those years. The moment where he was too awestruck to speak about his wife was sweet. The writing quality - the quality, period - has declined so much, as shown by the time of those 2003 clips, but I'm glad they didn't try to hide the past to prop up later stuff, and just let the material stand.

Members BoldRestless Posted December 1, 2020 Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 And what gets me is just the fact that it was most likely a throwaway scene yet you had an elaborate set, tons of extras, things going on in the background and an intricately choreographed fight scene in the foreground shot in one take by the actors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted December 1, 2020 Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) Me either, I thought he just said he took him to the audition because they are friends ETA: Maybe that's all it was, they were friends and he was just in that one scene. Seems to be late 1979 or early 1980 Edited December 1, 2020 by will81 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted December 1, 2020 Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 LOL at Playdoh left behind. It was bad even for late 70's standards. It was straight out of Eight Is enough. That karate clip was a surprise. I wish we could have seen the entire segment. I wonder if Greg and Paul got into a confrontation over Nikki ? Wings Hauser was just seedy. They should have re-cast a better Greg than that, especially to pair with Melody's Nikki. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Members Share Posted December 1, 2020 I've never understood why they cast Hauser. If I was watching at the time, maybe I would know, but he feels like such an odd choice for Y&R (which cast beautiful people) as well as for the Foster family (who were all troubled on the inside but able to present a more acceptable, polished face to the world). And James Houghton was so incredibly handsome, it's just jarring. Was this down to soaps moving toward the "anti-hero/bad boy" format by 1977 or 1978? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
