It's the cover of "Restless Style" magazine which is not a real thing. That magazine was a business that some Y&R characters worked at in the past.  I don't know what year that was.

The cover mentions "Genoa City's hot new nightclub Gloworm". 
https://theyoungandtherestless.fandom.com/wiki/Gloworm
and shows Kevin and Chloe all dressed up.

I thought it interesting in that through the years, Y&R periodically has a new place that the characters referred to as the hottest new club or nightspot.

Remember around 2019 or so, Abby opened "Society" with the idea that it would be a trendy place to have supper and listen to quality live music.  And now people just go there for gossip and business lunches.  What happened to it being a supper club?

Now in 2022 we have "The Glam Club" that Noah runs.  Will anything glamorous happen there? It seems to have already defaulted into a place to have meetings because most of the characters don't have home sets or office sets.

Elizabeth Hendrickson posted that image because it was a cool pic of her and Greg Rikaart back in the day. 

I'm curious, to ask, for those who were watching back when the Gloworm club existed, what was it like?

In my memory it was a rather tacky looking set (supposed to be a remodeled Indigo Jazz club, once owned by Neil???)  in which Judith Chapman was prancing around as Gloria, sometimes funny but quite often not so much. I think it was during that time that Tad Shackleford was feautured quite promimently as her "loverman" Jeff.

Never let it be said that for a small mid-western town Genoa City didn't have a lot of nightlife options.  But, if Kevin hadn't been such a pyromaniac they all would still be going to Gina's.  Where everyone from CEO John Abbott to local doctor Snapper Foster might break into song at any moment.

Damn. I used to rush to watch any classic Restless episode on YouTube back when things were scarce. Now that the show's content has become more abundant I've become more relaxed when new stuff comes out.

That's a reminder to soak up as much y&r content on YouTube that's not in the vault as you can because it will eventually be taken down.

I'm In Mourning for the RR channel was in the middle of a Bing watching of Felicia's Crossover back in 2008, I asked about July 5 2007 when Brooke Made an apparition and the Adm very graciously reuploaded it, I feel guilty

I don’t even understand how the YouTube police find them.  I’m pretty sure R R’s playlists were unlisted.  
 

While I’m here (and since I never post) I want to thank all of you that keep the Y&R of yesteryear alive by collecting and sharing these episodes.  I’ve watched/rewatched them for years but never took the time to say a proper thank you. Your hard work does not go unnoticed.

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
