April 28, 20214 yr Member Thanks for posting that. Yikes, I remember Salvage 1. It seems an odd show for Andy Griffith to be involved with but it seems he really wanted to be back with a weekly series. I think he had another flop 'The Yeagers[ around this time also. It took him a few years to get a hit with Matlock. So what happened with Trish Stewart? Even though Salvage 1 bombed, it would have got her name out there. Joel Higgins fresh off the soaps also, went on to more success. Of course, it was easier for him as most series were built around men. Did Trish actively pursue more work or quickly decide to give up? A few years later she came back yo Y&R, much heavier. Had she been ill or no longer cared trying to be Hollywood slim. So many questions...

So many questions... I wonder why Trish left acting ? Someone said she was heavier because of post pregnancy weight, but i have no idea if that's true. Joel Higgins had several flops series till he hit pay dirt with Silver Spoons with Ricky Schroder & Erin Gray.
April 30, 20214 yr Member I uploaded the following to the vault: January 12, 1990 episode August 2, 1990 (short clip) August 15, 1990 episode October 18, 1990 episode I'm wondering if anyone has these episodes? I ordered DVDs of these, but they were duplicates of other episodes or I was a sent an entirely different show, sigh. I'm hoping someone has these or anything else to help fill out that year. March 12, 1990 April 26 - May 3, 1990 May 30 - June 4, 1990 October 8-9, 1990 December 19-20, 1990

I actually had noticed that you had uploaded 3/12/90 to the Vault and removed it... now it makes sense. Just watched 1/12/90 and every story was on point.
April 30, 20214 yr Member Trying to think of something positive to say about Cricket's "dance performance" on 8/15/90... 😵😂

May 2, 20214 yr Member A great 1996 scene was uploaded to you tube.. After learning Dina did not left town (because of Katherine) and wants John back, Jill wants to cancel her divorce with her husband. Also uploaded another rare scene from 1996.. so clearly mentioning Patty was a way to bring her back? I wonder why the story dropped Mary shows to Christine some Paul's photos from his childhood and tells her Paul has a sister, named Patty. Shocked, Christine asks Paul why he never told her about his sister. Edited May 2, 20214 yr by asafi
May 2, 20214 yr Member The clip with Christine learning about Patty was from September 18, 1996. Anyone know the airdate of the scene with Dina? The September 18th date is in the vault only in German, it would be great to have the English. Edit: here it is in Englis h https://archive.org/details/youngandtherestless19960918 Edited May 2, 20214 yr by BoldRestless

Hmmm... for Christine not to be aware of Patty seems like a retcon... in spring/early summer '84, Danny was dating Andrea Evans' Patty before his shotgun wedding to Traci... while Cricket was also hanging around/crushing on Danny. Don't know if Cricket and Patty ever shared a scene but surely she knew of Patty as "competition" Such a retcon wouldn't be unusual for YR... I'm watching fall '93 now, where all of Eve's sins from the 80s were completely erased... '93 Nikki says she's never met Eve but has heard good things 😵 Edited May 2, 20214 yr by yrfan1983

May 3, 20214 yr Member I’d like to know what was going though Bill Bells head with these Retcons. I just think it’s weird neither Alden, Smith or anyone on the writing staff would remind him: “wait, these characters did meet before, etc..” it’s so lazy, unless Bell felt those early 80s stories with Eve, Patty etc.. weren’t his best and he felt the need to “reset” the prior history. It’s a bit of an insult to the audience who had watched for 10-20 years at that point and did see all those stories play out. I once heard Bell assumed viewers wouldn’t remember those stories or characters. Again kind of insulting the viewers intelligence.
May 3, 20214 yr Member Why bother with Cricket not knowing about Patty? Surely it would be just as easy (and acceptable) for her to say that Paul never talks much about her. As much as Bill is praised, had those stories come about in the internet age, there would have been a lot of blowback. As a viewer at the time, I was annoyed by these retcons. We've talked about it before, but it seems odd that Bell would initiate this story without having the role of Patty cast.

But we do know that Bell was comfortable proactively deciding to pretend a story he wrote and later regretted never happened (see Dru/Malcolm/Lily's paternity).

I can’t help but think he would have gotten a lot of flack from Daytime Confidential too if they were around back then.
