Members BuckyB12 Posted February 20, 2019 Members Share Posted February 20, 2019 Another thing he learned from Irna! (at least he never addressed the actors by their character names - I hope) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BoldRestless Posted February 20, 2019 Members Share Posted February 20, 2019 (edited) I remember being so shocked whenever the soap magazines would say that Y&R didn't have humor like the other shows. It was hilarious but it was more the subtleties in the writing than having some obvious "comic relief character" (or God forbid, animal) come out. I mean, GH literally ruined the episode with Stone's death with scenes of Sigmund the freaking duck. I actually do have that clip saved! Here you go. In all seriousness, I love that Esther was trying to take care of Kay, and even later went to school to be a substance abuse counselor.

How do you not only keep track of all the air dates, but actually remember where to find specific lines in specific shows!?

Members Legacy Posted February 21, 2019 Members Share Posted February 21, 2019 That would be fantastic if we could get the other segments because 1980 was a blast up to 1982 period, lol the often called the transitional years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted February 21, 2019 Members Share Posted February 21, 2019 I was surprised when seeing the 1980 episodes how well rounded Mary William's was. By the time I was old enough to watch the show 1990/1..she was written as a busybody. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted February 21, 2019 Members Share Posted February 21, 2019 I certainly enjoy her more in the 80s then 90s myself....and I think part of the problem with, her other children and Carl eventually disappearing, her obsession with Paul’s love life grew to be too much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted February 21, 2019 Members Share Posted February 21, 2019 Mary was the most ATWT character Bill Bell ever conceived. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted February 21, 2019 Members Share Posted February 21, 2019 Yeah, it does seem like her conversation with Patty and Paul didn't seem to be a typical conversation you'd see on the Young and the Restless. With that said, I did like in those two episodes from 1980 a good contrast between the Have's (Abbots/Katherine), the social climbers (Jill), and the Have nots (The Williams). I know that the 80s was more about seeing the larger than life characters and wealthy characters.. but not focusing on realistic working class characters in the 80s kind of short-changed the soaps long term. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted February 22, 2019 Members Share Posted February 22, 2019 I see that pannoni4 has uploaded a bunch more Y&R, including several videos from the 1980s! https://archive.org/details/@pannoni4 @amybrickwallace one of the 1982 videos has Melody Thomas listed in the crawl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRfan23 Posted February 22, 2019 Members Share Posted February 22, 2019 Pannoni's been on a role getting all of his videos over to the archive before google plus shuts down! Those gems shouldn't be kept away! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted February 22, 2019 Members Share Posted February 22, 2019 I can't get my computer to download the clips so I can make the screen cap. Would someone be willing/able to make a screen cap of Melody Thomas (pre-Scott)'s credit from the April 1982 episode for me, please? Thanks!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
