This sounds right, thanks... I read some 1972 plot summaries on Jason47's website. It says "Eric lived in an apartment in a seedy part of town among drug users and hookers..." and "Eric had been going through some emotional turmoil. He was not estranged from his family, but apart from their traditional lifestyle. He was a sensitive creative type, withdrawn from the world in many ways, including experience with women".

And from Jan 1973: "Greg was upset to inadvertently learn that Eric had concealed the fact that he had a young man, Jeff Michaels, sharing his apartment for the last six months. Eric hastened to assure Greg the relationship is financial only".

 

This sounds 100 times more interesting than today's soap.

I believe it was Eric Peters and his roommate. Someone once posted here or on another board (maybe danfling's or Steve Frame's old board) about how when Stanley Kamel played Eric he was seen living in a one bedroom apartment that both Eric and his roommate would enter and exit from a various points. 

Interesting.  For 1972 that’s pretty remarkable.  Bill Bell and Agnes Nixon really liked to push the envelope didn’t they.  Which is kind of incredible because on paper, they were as old school as you can get.  I think if both of them were still writing shows today, there would be some interesting explorations going on.

I have quite a few uploads to post over the next few days, but here's some more "new" January 1992 episodes! (With Dutch Subtittles)   

 

 

 

 

Thanks for sharing those with us. 

 

That last shot is really the eternal statement on Nikki and Victor, isn't it.

Looks like lots of Drunk Nikki, yay! Thanks @YRfan23

Your welcome guys!!

 

@yrfan1983 the timing for these episodes is perfect because these 4 are the last we see of drunk Nikki before the surgery!

My favorite Ashley... she was much prettier and more likable as Ashley.. but don't cross her.

 

I loved the Nina/Christine/Dru/Neil/Danny grouping and all of them rescuing Dru from another one of her misguided stunts at fame.  I used to love when Jill and Dru would tangle with Dru calling Jill 'the Dragon Lady'.. when Jill was actually being logical and giving Dru actual commonsense advice LOL

Thank you so much for these great videos.  Such a treat!

Pannoni4 just uploaded another episode from January 8, 1985!

Thanks!!! What a weekend treat.

Damn, Katherine's fantasy of hurting Jill was terrifying - only veering into complete lolcamp near the very end. The makeup people did a fantastic job on Katherine's scarred face (I guess they were at their peak with the Tyrone story) and Jeanne Cooper's screams and wails were just right. 

 

That reminds me more of the audio of the whole Suzanne story. It was weird seeing it on Y&R by 1985.

 

And I LOVE LOVE LOVE that darkly lit shot of Katherine smoking with her holder (whatever you call those things). Just a gorgeous, atmospheric shot - says so much. I love the darker Katherine before she became so cleaned up and a it more dull.

 

Bill Bell really did love using Katherine for some of his gothic and extreme writing impulses, didn't he? 

 

When Jazz asked Tyrone about what it was like being white I thought he might actually talk about things like white privilege. I guess that was way too on the nose for 1985. 

 

Eww Nikki has some kind of mullet/soccer mom style. Is that photographer supposed to be a pervert? He looks familiar to me. 

 

For once I actually like Ashley's look here, even if it looks like she should be on Kate & Allie.

Wow, there’s a lot of good stuff in that folder, not just Y&R.

 

My oh my, Phil Morris was a stud. Just a gorgeous man.

 

Does anyone else think Amy Gibson (Alana) looks like Faye Resnick ( @Cat @DaytimeFan ) I had only ever seen Alana in photos or a clip of the whiteface reveal. She looks somewhat biracial to me here. I did laugh at Jazz thinking the other girl was Alana, mostly because they didn't mock the girl - she got the last reaction. I really like Jazz. And I am always glad to see more of Amy (the character). She brightens up the show. I wish Bill Bell had held onto these characters. 

 

Jack saying Dina isn't thinking clearly at the moment made me feel sad, even though that wasn't what Bell say intending obviously. I guess this was the start of the Victor/Jack feud. 

 

I was shocked to see the Foster home at this point. I wonder if this was the last time we ever saw it. Love love love getting to see more of Liz and Jill. Hard to believe it hadn't even been 5 years from the touching Jill/Liz scene with Bond Gideon to Brenda's Jill being so deluded and selfish she actually asked Liz to mortgage her home! 

 

I think this may be the earliest Miguel I've seen (was he in the 1984 episodes put up a few months ago?).
