Members SoapDope Posted April 27, 2014 Members Share Posted April 27, 2014 I would say 1973-1993 was the Golden Age of Y&R. I started to not care about the show as much after they brought on adult Nick and Sharon in 1994. I know fans love and root for them, but I never could stand either one of those two. I use to scream at the TV when they were on and then we had the Matt Clark rape and then looooong story about Cassie and the Grace/Nick/Sharon triangle crap etc etc...... I don't think Joshua Morrow and Sharon Case have ever been back burner for 20 years. They always have story for those two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted April 27, 2014 Members Share Posted April 27, 2014 Well based on my personal preference 1988-2003 but it was overall a good show 1973-2003. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members will81 Posted April 28, 2014 Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) I also think 1973 - 1993 (not that I saw the 70's but I can tell it was good). 1994 through to Spring 1996 was good, but something was off in certain places, some of the focus was off, I can't quite explain it. Still like that period though and happy to re-watch. By summer 1996 something was definitely off and didn't pick up until mid to late 1997 when Kay Alden became co-head writer. After Bell retired the show was stable but lacking a certain something, still watchable though until about 2003/2004. I gave up by 2005 and haven't watched a single episode since.

Members will81 Posted April 28, 2014 Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 Thanks for the articles. I have to say I never had a problem with Lauralee Bell. I was never a huge fan of Cricket. Mostly because I thought Danny was such a cheesefest of a character. Seeing the Colonnade Room reminds me of Nikki's tantrum around Victor's birthday with Diane. Fun times. Is it still shown on the show? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted April 28, 2014 Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 Michael & Lauren's wedding in Dec 2005 was probably the last big budget event - and the last time we saw it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 I felt a little sorry for her in that they likely had to have that article just because of all the nepotism charges...I was never a big fan of Cricket either, although like you I kind of put that on Danny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 I always thought Leanna Love running Restless Style would've been the only thing that made sense. Otherwise, it should never have happened. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) In these 90's episodes I love hearing all the old music cues that had been around since the 70's. Edited April 30, 2014 by SoapDope 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 And I am so thankful EP John Conboy and HW Kay Alden is still using them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Bill Bell and Ed Scott were running the show at that point..... But I agree it's nice that they kept the 70's cues well into the 90's and early 00's for the most part. I wonder exactly when they stopped using them......It had to be at least 2003 or 2004 right? If I can give credit for one thing MAB did right was pulling out the classic cues every now and then.....of course the one thing missing was the amazing stories we could've had....
