I made it through August 1986 and the Molly Starck and teenage pregnancy storyline.

That concert of Danny was such a success.. I have to say it felt a bit TOO 80‘s for me but I did enjoy it. I enjoyed that whole arc and that Y&R told such an important awareness story for young women to say no! 

Danny-Christine grew on me during those episodes and they felt a bit more real then what we got in the 2020‘s loL

Katherine taking on Phillip was so moving. I love that bond even though Phillip always acted like diva here and there.

Im so fully invested in Jack Abbott‘s storyline. He is working with the homeless coz of his sentence. He didn’t shot Jill.. He is finally trying to proof his innocence! Terry is such a great actor and I get why he was beloved with the audience.

I knew from the anniversary books that it was Sven Petterson. But Jill used him to get some information out of Katherine even though it was him all along. That was hilarious and entertaining. Can’t wait to see the revelation of it to Jill.. I love Brenda!

Jess is such a legend and I love her as Jill. BUT Brenda will always be MY Jill. I don’t get how people say that she was too campy and stuff even though she portrayed Jill as she was supposed to be. Some said she has overdone it and Y&R tried to chase the hype of Dynasty but Brenda played Jill since 1973 way before Dynasty hit the screen. I love her and she even replied to my Instagram comment. She is posting a lot of YR stuff on her site. I wish Y&R would bring her back

this month I felt a bit annoyed by the Matt-Nikki-Victor-Ashley story. Only thing that kept my interest is that mystery illness of Nikki.

After she filed her $10 million wrongful termination lawsuit against Columbia Pictures Television [now Sony] after her dismissal, she pretty much blackballed herself from appearing on Y&R (or any other soap) ever again.  Very unfortunate decision on her part to file the suit.  No production company wants to deal with someone like that.  I know she's blamed everyone (except herself) for her lack of subsequent lack of acting gigs over the years, but the fault obviously lies with her decision to file that lawsuit.  

I didn't mind her (ridiculous) campiness all that much.  If you jot down her lines from the 1986-1987 scripts, and try reciting the lines yourself, you'll find that most of them can't be delivered in any fashion OTHER than camp, which is the way she played it.

I don't know if this is the best place to post this. 

But, if any of you have this info tucked away, a google drive of Y&R episodes, it has gone defunct. All the episodes are gone.

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Chris B · Posted

      This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.
