Members YRfan23 Posted June 2, 2015 Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 I always felt like his casting was more of a "fine whatever just dye his hair...." type of deal, which sucks since Nathan had been on the canvas for a good decade and this was the start of his character's downfall.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 I didn't know he was that young either. That's ludicrous. I always wonder if Bell cast him to set up an affair/exit story all along or if he'd just stopped caring about Nathan altogether and we got that guy as a result. Was this Nathan brought in after Malcolm took off in popularity? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted June 2, 2015 Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 I know he was cast a few months after Shemar, I think..... 1994-1996 seem to be a strange time where Bell had to beef up the "younger" set of characters, which of course he did with Nick,Sharon,Amy,Matt etc....while sort of de-aging some of the more established younger characters, so I guess he cast Lazarre-White since at the time he fit into that "younger" age range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) It seems like Bell lost a lot of interest in Nathan by the time of Purdee's late run. I do wonder what would have happened if Randy Brooks had stayed, but he mostly just reacted to things. The 1995 episodes hold up better than I remember feeling at the time, although the repetitive Bell dialogue and emphasis (Drake, the vanishing Matt Clark BFF, calling Nick "rich boy" 500000 times in one scene) still grate. I've always been a Nikki fan but geez is she annoying there. No wonder the soap magazines were trashing her at that time.

Members soapfan770 Posted June 2, 2015 Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 I feel bad he replaced Randy Brooks, who ended up leaving Y&R for a promising but ultimately very thankless and forgettable role on AW. It's interesting how far Eddie Cibrian has come from this, while I believe Julianne Morris biggest claim to fame remains that of being Swamp Girl on Days. Can never get enough of Mari Jo though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted June 2, 2015 Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 Nathan to me always seemed to be one of those supporting characters who wouldn't be able to stand on his own, which is why characters like Amy, Dru,Olivia really helped to add depth to his character.... I will need to watch those episodes soon....I might have before but can't really remember....I certainly do grow tired of the "Rich Boy" talk too....I wish the scene of Victor tackling Matt Clark in the hospital morgue was still on here...one of the only times I rooted for Victor to kick somebody's ass... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Love Mari Jo. I wish they'd done more with her. I enjoy Tylo as Rick too, even if it would have been annoying over time. One thing Y&R had at this point, as they did earlier with Nina Arvesen and to a point Eileen Davidson, was some great noir-esque ladies - Brenda Epperson and Diana Barton could both have starred in some of the best noir films and hold up well. It's a shame Epperson left and Barton was fired not long after, especially as the lack of fresh blood in the female department meant they had to lean so much on Phyllis.

Members kalbir Posted June 2, 2015 Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 And we got stuck with the then Mrs. Ronn Moss for three years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 2, 2015 Here's the last one I had. It mostly seems to be intact, but a Jill and John scene seems to cut off, sadly. I wish I had more but I'm sure I have bits and pieces somewhere. The third episode, BTW, is apparently December 6, from what someone commented on my channel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted June 5, 2015 Members Share Posted June 5, 2015 Here's a long ago question, I hope someone can answer. Did Peggy Brooks ever marry? Did she marry Jack Curtis? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 5, 2015 I don't think so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted June 5, 2015 Members Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah she eloped with Jack. They were only married for a couple of months. After the rape Peggy couldn't bring herself to have sex with Jack. He was patient to a point but pretty much raped her as well and she divorced him, pretty dark stuff. She almost married Steve Williams just before she left the show, but ran out on him. Not sure if it was on the wedding day or just before 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 5, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 5, 2015 Somebody uploaded this 1987 or 1988 (?) episode, which is dubbed into Turkish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted June 5, 2015 Members Share Posted June 5, 2015 Thanks, I actually saw those episodes posted, and was trying to figure out what language it was......i'm guessing this is early 1988.... I'm gonna be getting more episodes from May,October and December 1990 and July 1991. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
