Members vetsoapfan Posted January 9, 2018 Members Share Posted January 9, 2018 That's nothing. After playing the lead role of Jo of SFT for DECADES, and after memorably bringing Aunt Meta back to TGL, the idiots at P&G/CBS could not even spell Mary Stuart's name right. In her "tribute", they referred to her as Mary Stewart. EGREGIOUS! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted January 9, 2018 Members Share Posted January 9, 2018 Sad to hear about DR. I remember him also being on a show in the late 80's called Danger Bay. It seems there are very few current viewers of Y&R that were around to watch the show in the 70's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 9, 2018 Members Share Posted January 9, 2018 Alas, it's true. I started watching Y&R on its very first day, eager to see what the wonderful William J. Bell would do with a series of his own, after crafting such masterful stories at DAYS. I think that many longtime viewers have been turned off by the serious reduction in quality of the soaps, however, and drifted away many years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 9, 2018 Members Share Posted January 9, 2018 I wasn't old enough to watch in the 70s (Phillip Chancellor began before I was born) but I definitely know who the character was. And thankfully in the mid-late 90s especially, Y&R actually showed classic episodes and clips. The Canadian fans seem the most effusive in their praise. DR was a staple on Canadian television. It's nice to see that he is being appreciated, even if little of it is coming from the soap world. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted January 9, 2018 Members Share Posted January 9, 2018 My mom started watching the firs day too in 1973. Around the year 2000 she lost interest. Bill Bell was no longer crafting the stories. That's nice they have high praise for him. My first memories of Y&R are around 1979/80. The Leslie/Lorie/Lance/Lucas thing was going on and Victor's was married to his first wife Julia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kalbir Posted January 10, 2018 Members Share Posted January 10, 2018 Phillip Chancellor II was part of the canvas for only 2 years. John Considine originated the role in 1973. Donnelly Rhodes took over in 1974 and remained until the character was killed off in 1975. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 24, 2018 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2018 pannoni4, who uploads a lot of commercials and sometimes soap operas, has a Google+ channel with a few Y&R episodes from December 1984. Just Google pannoni4's Google+ and you will quickly see a link to their soap page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
