Welcome and thanks for all you have uploaded so far!   Fun to see those rare scenes. 

Sadly with my channel being terminated I can't share any January-August 92 Episodes I have directly on here, but they are all saved on the vault thankfully!

I can’t believe they shut you down. These are episodes from 30+ years ago. Who cares! Plus in German.  it’s taking awhile to upload. These are big files.  Still looking for 2-26-1992 and a few others from 1992.

I'll never understand the problem and why it never seems to be an issue for other soaps... At least B&B has broken away from that curse and you can now watch several full years of classic episodes...hopefully the same can be said for Y&R some day. 

I have all of February 1992 except 2/11/92, 2/24/92, and 2/26/92. I hope those episodes and others I'm missing surface at some point.

Seems like a Spny problem, are they this strict with Days?

They seem to be, although I feel like There's probably more of a chance for Days to eventually get to release classic episodes online, especially with them already a streaming platform. 

Ran across this old pic of WGE circa 1975 online.

 

Does anyone have August, 12 2004 episode or clips in english? Vault only has a french version.

 

Tonya Lee Williams on a Y&R return

Would you consider a return to Y&R to reprise your
character? “Since I left, Y&R has asked me many times to return;
in fact, they just asked me again to come back for the 50th anniversary.
I truly loved doing the show, it was a huge part of my life, but
the work I do now is so different and very fulfilling, I can’t imagine
going backward in my life to recreate something that I consider my
past. I want to be remembered for the Olivia I created, the one in the
audience’s mind, not an Olivia who is now 15 years older. There was
something just magical about Malcolm, Olivia, Neil, Drucilla; it’s
something that can never be replicated. I would love to return if we
could all be together again, but that is impossible, and I am so happy
to have been a part of that magic.”

Now that is some interesting tea right there re: Olivia in the 50th anniversary episodes. And now with Nate mixing it up more with the Newmans, it would be nice to have her back. Goodness knows Nate will need her.

But...I understand.

I respect Tonya's point of view,so maybe Y&R should consider a recast. 

Olivia should visit and deal with her son and catch up with other relatives and friends.

I really want her to do both tbh.

 

BUT I feel this is one of those cases where while the actress might be okay with a recast and gives the blessings, fans would still not be okay with it.

Who do you think would be good for that role? I mean realistically, who in primetime would come back or, do a soap or who has been in daytime that could? 

Olivia was last seen on Y&R in 2009 I think. I don't blame Tonya Lee Williams for not wanting to return after she was unceremoniously dumped in 2005 after 15 years of service.

Tonya Lee Williams was last seen on February 15, 2012.

That’s unfortunate, at least we know the show tried. I would rather not see a recast, all they can do is move on. 
 

The closest we could have gotten was Olivia with Nate, Malcolm and Mamie, we know VR is never stepping foot back and frankly she has nothing to come back to. 

Tonya is 64 so some possibilities in that age range
