Members soapfan770 Posted February 4, 2022 Members Share Posted February 4, 2022 As far as primetime episodes I do recall in addition to GH’s 1996 episode they also did a 35th anniversary primetime special in ‘98 as well. @will81 Yes the 95 episode was where Brad bared all lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Franko Posted February 4, 2022 Members Share Posted February 4, 2022 I'll just mention that it's appropriate that we're having this discussion on Friday, Feb. 4, 28 years to the day of DOOL's "Winter Heat" airing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted February 5, 2022 Members Share Posted February 5, 2022 Thurs Oct 26 1995 Y&R primetime episode 9pm #56 9.1/14. This episode was up against the world Series on ABC #1 and a special line up of comedies on NBC (Frasier/John Laroquette)#15 and #22 Does anyone know what happened on that episode and why CBS aired a primetime special? It must have been in the planning for sometime as it had to fit in with the daytime schedule. As I recall, the nightime eps had a more primetime filming and pacing feel? Am I correct? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted February 5, 2022 Members Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Victor/Chris/Paul track down Amy - Matt also finds out where she is Dru confronts Nathan about his affair while Malcolm gets romantic with Keesha Brad and Jack hit the gym and argue about Nikki I'll check the SOD's I have from 1995 and other sources to see if I can find out the reason CBS/Sony decided to do Primetime ep. Not sure why they did this one ETA: So far all I can find is that CBS were happy with the response from 1994 primetime ep and decided to do it again, it also sounds like they were trying to bring in an audience that had little interest in the World Series. 48 Hours aired after Y&R and did a show on romance novels. So it does sound like CBS were setting a theme and targeting a certain demo for the night. Edited February 5, 2022 by will81 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted February 5, 2022 Members Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Did anyone like Nikki/Brad as a couple? To me it felt like Nikki was afraid of being alone as she was getting older and didn't have much going on in her life at that time (no career, kids were married and on their own), so she settled for Brad. I also think the fear of getting older without having accomplished much in her life lead to Nikki's jealousy over Christine during the time Victor and Christine's friendship was growing. Christine was everything Nikki wasn't: young, intelligent, educated, had a successful career, kind-hearted. There was so much that could've been explored in that brief Nikki/Christine rivalry.

Members soapfan770 Posted February 6, 2022 Members Share Posted February 6, 2022 Nikki and Brad were okay the initial affair like their later 1999 affair worked but they also didn’t strike me as long term couple to begin with. If anything it at least finally got Nikki out of the ranch all the time and added some new tensions to the dynamics of Newman like paving the way to let Neil become Victor’s right hand man instead of Brad when Brad was passed over for a promotion. Oddly they didn’t address Nikki’s age during her relationship to Brad but they did when she married Joshua. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted February 11, 2022 Members Share Posted February 11, 2022 Working out at the moment and fell down a Y&R video hole and came across the memories. I can't believe they only had ONE scene. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted February 11, 2022 Members Share Posted February 11, 2022 Sigh! A time period of goodness where Nikki, Victoria, Jill, Diane and Phyllis were all walking around town to pick a fight with someone. LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted February 11, 2022 Members Share Posted February 11, 2022 It makes sense why she was recast because she mopped the floor with Phyllis. Alex Donnelly had a strong and confident presence even when doing desperate things (i.e. ditching Andy for Doug, ditching Jack for Victor, and spermgate). She didn't have that jittery nervous thing that Stafford had. Susan Walters was a decent replacement as Diane..but she could play up the pathetic vibe better..but also had the sarcastic confident vibe. Maura West...well..miscast and over rated as an actress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 11, 2022 Members Share Posted February 11, 2022 Siiiigh. Such a good scene. AD was such a singular presence. She would have been more interesting as a Phyllis rival than SW, but of course they’d have had to write it differently. Alex would have instantly deflated a lot of Michelle’s antics. The shot of Phyllis through the handle of Diane’s purse was such a nice touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted February 11, 2022 Members Share Posted February 11, 2022 While AD was always my favorite Diane because she just had THAT chemistry with MTS's Nikki, as the years have grown, I've come to like SW's take as well. OMG yes! I was playing catchup on B&B, and there was a camera angle in one of the episodes that made me think of old school Y&R. And watching the clip, that shot was a thing of beauty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
