Members sheilaforever Posted March 12, 2016 Members Share Posted March 12, 2016 When Nick and Sharon wanted to franchise Crimson Lights in 2000 (the beginning of the Matt Clarke story...) it was Milwaukee where Nick often travelled to top open the first coffee house outside of Genoa City... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted March 12, 2016 Members Share Posted March 12, 2016 Seeing Greg Wrangler (Steve) in the Y&R article makes me wonder why Bill Bell never had Lauren goes after Steve and continue her rivalry with Tracy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Members Share Posted March 18, 2016 I think this first ad is 1988, not 1989. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted March 25, 2016 Members Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) It's amazing to think back on how revolutionary Y&R actually was in the 1970s. It's almost surreal to think when Y&R first premiered that The Secret Storm, Edge of Night, and Love of Life were all still on the CBS daytime line-up. Yet the old guard that was ATWT, GL, and SFT had gotten stodgy and so cliched so much that by 1975 the stories of Chris' rape, Jennifer's breast cancer and other melodrama, and of course Katherine/Phillip/Jill were so explosive it faded into daytime legend it's no wonder that Y&R suddenly went from bottom of the barrel upon its debut in '73 to a top five soap just two years later in 1975. And of course in my opinion nobody in daytime did a story hook or a climax better than Y&R, even back then. Even though the middle could so easily get bogged down and some stories had some major flaws, Bell always hit that climaxing beat from early stories such as Snapper and Sally all the way to the Veronica Landers caper.

Members vetsoapfan Posted April 3, 2016 Members Share Posted April 3, 2016 Ahh, the original Chris Brooks and Snapper Foster, as played by Trish Stewart and William Gray Espy. They had great chemistry and burned up the screen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
