No worries, and the other one I remembered. Deborah Dalton who played Cassie Burns on Days in 1980 was also on Y&R. Apparently that was her first soap role and she played a runaway. Apart from Jodie in 1977 who was apparently played by Cynthia Eilbacher (April) and Kathy Bruder who was played by Cindy Fisher, I don't know any other runaway teens on the show. Maybe she played a role during the Rose DeVille/Chris Foster white slave story.

The actor who played the slimy photographer who wanted to take pornographic pictures of Jill and Chris was Michael Gregory (later the first Rick Webber on General Hospital.)

Jill and Chris met in the outer office of the photography studio, and went into the interview together. Upon hearing that the photographer wanted to take nudie pictures of them, Chris announced that neither she nor Jill would be interested, and walked out, taking Jill with her. Jill went back in later, alone, however, and offered the photographer her services anyway, but he was just then getting off the phone with another model who had taken him up on his offer, so he rejected Jill's services.

I don't know who the actor named Sean Garrison is, exactly, but there was another John Abbott besides Brett Halsey in the early years of the show. I only remember seeing him once, however. Perhaps this was Sean Garrison, or maybe not, but it was a very temporary recast of the role of John.

Ugh, so today my 2nd account, Restless Bold, was terminated. There were like two episodes on there that were public and they got them. I'll make another one soon. If any of my videos upthread no longer work and you didn't save them, let me know so I can upload them again later. What a pain.

Thanks for that info. 70's Y&R had a lot of short term characters who were played by some well known soap actors. I wish I could find more synopsis for 1973.

Thanks so much for sharing everything again and again. Appreciate the effort. Why can't Sony/CBS or whoever it is just let us enjoy the show.

Also thanks YRFan23. I have been loving these uploads. I am quite surprised the episode of Nina shooting David featured so little of them, they were actually hardly in the episode at all. I guess the were on most of the week so there was a big build up.

BoldRestless, I'm so sorry to hear that! That is so frustrating... Don't Y&R/SONY have more important things to do than pull such old vids? I'll never be able to wrap my mind around this issue.

YRfan, those episodes are amazing. I wasn't too sold on the Danny trial drama. He's okay but he's no leading man material IMO. I don't understand his popularity but I guess he had what it took for that particular era.

The baby switch ordeal was phenomenal. I loved how they played every single beat. I had to chuckle at Sheila looking for a 'Natalie Minard'... given that Natalie Minardi has been a staple member of the writing team for several years.

Nina's reaction to David's shooting was not what you would expect. I really loved it.

Boy, was Jack coming across as a sloppy second to Victor. Poor guy, he just has no sexual chemistry with anyone.

I have a question, how did Sheila manage to hide her fake belly during her fake pregnancy? I mean, wasn't she living with Scott back then? And he would never see her naked when she started showing? I'm a little sketchy on the details of that story, also I have other eppys to catch up with.

Michael Gregory's character was Jerry Frazier[74] He must have been the creepy photographer.

A few more characters I'm trying to find actor that played them:

1979: George Remley, son of Nell

1982: Gloria, a friend of Diane Jenkins that dated John Abbott before Jill

Dr. Cardwell[Caldwell} Vanessa Prentiss' doctor

P.I. Wagner

1983: Marian Cooper, diner owner that Victor worked for to prove to Nikki? he wasn't afraid of manual labor.

Tom, the man that got Patty her gun.

1984: Jim Glidden, who had an affair with Melissa Daros.

Robert Glidden, his brother looking for his killer.

Peter and Nasha, who saved Rick when Melissa Daros died.

Thanks for any help!

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Planet Soap · Posted

      Yes!!! Mona feels  like one of my aunts, love the way she carries herself. Loved seeing Eva pop-up at the gambling place.  Monday was all around good soap. Can't remember the last time an entire episode held my interest.  Loving the fallout and reverberations from Ted and Shea-Butter Sheila's affair

      . As nice as it would've been to see Anita embrace Eva, I'm glad she didn't because we can squeeze a lot more years of conflict out of Eva, Leslie and the Duprees.   Lauren & Sheila, Viki & Dorian, Katherine & Jill all gave us good conflict for decades. Hopefully this follows suit. I understand the concern. Right now there's an issue of quality of black representation on shows more so than quantity of black shows. I'd like to see more predominantly black sci-fi, legal, political, supernatural or medical dramas over the typical who is sleeping with who. However, this is a soap, and this is what happens on soaps. White soap characters do these things all the time, but have the luxury of being seen as individuals, not representations of their entire race. Husbands/fathers like Todd Manning, Victor Newman and Asa Buchanan cheat, lie and swindle all the time but aren't seen as a commentary on white men. Black characters like Ted and New Dollar Bill should be able to do the same.

      Even under the new writers, Jamey episodes are the shortest and the weakest A lot of people were unnecessarily clowny and bitchy today. There was a lot of fluff and filler too. And the dialogue was a little… ehhh as well. But welcome back, Kevin! It’s been a long time lol his return still seems really random but I don’t mind it. Philip’s actions make sense to me based on everything that’s happened to him lately and it could possibly set up more tension between him and Xander/Alex. And I wouldn’t mind seeing him and Kevin team up. I thought the actor did a good job too. Too bad that they couldn’t get Robert Benvenisti back though. I didn’t realize it in 2001 but he was hot

      And, we got the word that Arianna wants to come home. I’m looking forward to that, and seeing her relationships with Gabi, Marlena, etc. on display and I hope that

      As for Rachel’s birthday party… was Days hinting at something that we’ve been speculating about since EJ was shot?

      Portugal qualifying was the only shocker. I'm really happy for Iceland. IMO, the automatic finalists – Spain, Switzerland and Italy – had the best performances. I love the studio version of Azerbaijan, but on stage, it was a disaster.

      Randy (Doug's friend who works for Joey) -- Joey told Randy weeks ago that Joey's plan was to get Doug into so much debt that Doug would be forced to get Vanessa's real estate holding turned over to Joey, to use for money-laundering.  That's been the plan all along, which the viewers knew.  The only thing new is that Joey finally told Doug this. I think Joey is written badly.  I also think Jon Lindstrom is doing "Now I am going to act menacing".   But I don't really feel the menace.  It's too overdramatic and it doesn't feel like a real person.  Jon is a fine actor on GH, so I don't know what's happening here -- the entire BTG mobster premise is badly designed/written.  I don't know if Guza pushed for a mobster storyline?  Or did Jon?  (Jon wrote a novel about Hollywood mobsters). It just doesn't fit.  It feels (to me) like this storyline for Jon was just shoved onto the canvas but it doesn't fit all all. Monday's scene of Mona coming into the "casino" to check up on where Leslie supposedly lost money in the slot machines -- and Randy explaining to Mona that there are no slot machines, there is nothing but the card room.  I had to laugh because they had characters comment that it's just a card room and not a casino -- the show is now acknowledging that there's nothing there.  If they are going to do this, then have it make sense for Fairmont Crest residents to visit a high-end glamourous casino, and not a random room with one table. So what money is Joey laundering? A while back, Joey told Vanessa that he knows about her sexual philandering because owns the escort service that she'd been using. But I don't care...  I'd just prefer that the entire mobster storyline go away.
