Thanks for posting that Carl!, I PM'd that guy on youtube if he has any classic Y&R episodes himself to upload (since he posted the commercial breaks from a few 1994 episodes) but he hasn't gotten back to me yet....

I have a question regarding the Cole story, Did Nikki realize that Eve was his mother? When i read old messages from the google archieves, fans were complaining that Nikki seemed to have forgotten all about the Horrors that Eve put her through and didn't put 2 and 2 together and figure out Eve was Cole's mom. Apparently there was also an episode when Eve called the ranch and Nikki spoke to her without any fear at all. Considering then it was only 10 years since the hell Nikki had been through with Eve, it shouldn't have been so hard for Nikki to figure that out.

Gotta love this:

I've heard the biggest complaint about Eve Howard's return was the way Eve was remembered/written for as a lot was apparently swept under the rug and Eve was reformed for the most part. Then again being gone for a decade does have its advantages. Aside from very unsuccessfully trying to kill Nikki on her wedding, I believe most of Eve's schemes were carried out against Victor and Julia. Then again I do recall reading Eve had an affair to remember with Rick Daros while they were in the mental hospital together but how involved was Eve in the main Rick Daros story?

I've always thought Alison Bancroft was more terrifying than Eve anyways.

Thanks for posting this article about Brenda carl! I love her Ashley, even if she did play it differently than Eileen

Thats very sad about her father, i had no idea.

It's funny how she was on B&B I think she would have done good with Kristen too back then (or even now) i think Teri Ann Lynn looked like her a lot too.

It's funny how she talk about maintaining to Eileen's strength's when the irony is that she was a totally different Ashley. not that it was a bad thing.

It's so tough for me to ever see Ashley as strong, whoever plays her, but they did change her personality. I usually don't see the resemblance to Eileen but I definitely do in that photo with Victor and Leanna. I'm glad they changed her hair and clothing after a while.

I wish I could see a clip of her with Terry Lester.

I've always thought Ashley must be a difficult character to write for her because she was so many things. When she wasn't weak and crazy she's cold and bitchy and Epperson captured some of Davidson's coolness from time to time as Y&R's secondary heroine(second to Nikki of course). Yet Ashley always maintained a collected, quiet maturity and warmth at the same time, more so with Epperson. That was one of the problems with Shattuck was she was too--with regards to Victoria Newman--brash and sassy to be Ashley.

    • This episode was probably the most we've ever seen of Jan.. and it took long enough. The phone conversation between Jan/Ashley also shed light on their backstory.. and I think it explains why Ashley seems to live in a dreamworld and why she's having difficulties with living with Derek.  Derek could be doing everything right and Ashley would still have a problem because she was an only child, didn't see her mother model positive male/female interactions, and sounds as if she was alone a lot of the time. Nicole is modeling healthy human behavior and she would be smart not to listen to Dani's advice... well intentioned as it is. Eva is the character you root for because she's suffering the consequences of her actions.  And if I were Eva, I wouldn't want to be part of the Dupree world.   I'm hoping the Doug/Joey scenes today is signaling that we're finally moving to the next stage of this story... Doug either asking Vanessa for the money, or letting Joey have dibs on Vanessa's business books, etc.   And Joey finally showing his true colors makes me think we might be approaching that next stage of this story.
    • Lord have mercy!!! Not SilkPress vs Eva at Oprhany Gene for everyone to see!!!! Though I loved Vernon shading SilkPress. I continue to love all this fallout.   Is THAT Joey's endgame?
    • WAIT!!?  You don't want to know CM's workout secrets?  And a recap of his insta feed?  What's wrong with you?   Anyhow, today's show had good character moments.  I feel like Sonny/Laura brought it down.  I really like Tracey and Jason scenes so I think I am a weirdo.  Carly/Lulu were actually pretty good as well, but Carly's dress was some sort of bondage/leather type situation?  It was a strange wardrobe choice lol.
    • Oh God When are we gonna see this on BTG?
    • Yeah, I don't really love Felicity being used to push the Chad/Cat agenda.  I don't get the question on Xander's behavior either.  He was wrong and offensive. I like Xander.  I think Paul Telfer is great.  If Marlena did the same thing I would say she's wrong too.  Characters are imperfect and that's fine.  
    • Vanessa told Joey that her best friend had cheated and has a surprise daughter.  Joey said the same had happened to him.  I wasn't sure if Joey was saying he has an adult out-of-wedlock child?
    • Interesting. I definitely think that it's possible that Jan could be a former lover of Joey's from back in the day, maybe back when he was still married. I won't be surprised if it comes out at some point that Jan used to be an escort or something. 
    • Quick question, How are you guys making time to watch all these soaps? I consider myself a pretty organized person, but since I have committed to watching more of the older soaps. I feel all over the place, and can not figure out a schedule that seems to work.  How are you all doing it?   Thanks. I will check that out.
    • Oh, poor Henry had to wait for the grave to finally come "out"! The whole things was McTavish plot dictated so that Hart could have money to pull off his scam of Roger later. The fortune is totally forgotten later. Which reminds me WHY did they fire Hilliard who actually could kinda pass for a midwestern farm boy..from JOISEY Grillo? AM and Lucy's wedding has got to be the weirdest wedding up to that point and really exemplified the McLaiby cheesy run. Universal Studios? And the Spauldings shut the place down for the wedding that only involves 6 people??? Its not even that weird that Bridget and David arent there...they didn't even invite AM's Mom or Grandfather...
    • It seems easy to be empathic that if a random man raised his voice to me at the mall today, I would not be appeased if he later went and apologized to my sister. I like giving the character more to do, because there is a value in representing a person with a congenital disorder being employed, given that the unemployment rate in that community tops 83%.  I just hope they find a voice for the character that matches her functioning ability.  As for Cat, I wonder if she is going to inherit any of Clyde's money?  And that was the reason for the phone call.  I know he's not dead, but he could have named her family as the beneficiary of some insurance policy if he were to be incapacitated.  And the call could have been an attorney trying to reach her to give her money.
