B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles

Yes, I agree with the "dark character pretending not to be" assessment. It is kind of telling that he is the ONLY character who managed to drive a serious wedge between Sally and Macy - while acting perfectly charming to both of them.

And how his actions force "angelic" characters like Keith and Darla to do damage control.

It's interesting that he just came from playing a dark character on another soap - I didn't know that! But then it makes sense that the writers may have had something dark in mind for him when casting the actor.

The actor playing Anthony fit the dark character hiding under a handsome, charming face to a tee.  Anthony was also a talented designer.  Sally fell hard for him but she was always a sucker for a pretty face-Bucky Boy anyone?  It was kind of sad how infatuated she was with him, even moving him in with her.  Anthony went to a really dark place and it was rather shocking.  I liked Ivana but they did a 180 on her character to fit Anthony's evil plans. Michael Sabatino was perfect for this part and Anthony drove a lot of story for a while.

I still miss the fashion aspect of the stories at B&B.  I have heard that they are too expensive to the show but when they were eliminated it took the show to the lowest common denominator-triangles and endless partner swapping, often seeming incestuous due to the small cast. 

Classic B&B is a treat.  Current B&B-not so much.

I can imagine they were expensive to shoot. Classic B&B fashion shows used to have a lot of extras, choreography, lighting, music, clothes that seemed to have been made especially for the occasion, as well as feature a large part of the cast. I just watched Felicia's fashion show on the official Youtube account and it was more like a dance performance.

Does anyone want me to upload complete 2010 in times better quality than the youtube ones we already have? I found the complete year in one old flash drive. It's Cristal clear quality.

Thank you so much! For 2006-2007 I think you can use the "missing episode 2005-2009" file, most episode numbers were still missing in English (but they're in German).

I still haven't had the time to make the list for 2000-2004. I will try to upload it under 2000s in the coming days.

@divinemotion I would love that too. The quality for 2010 is really not good with 360p and the Youtube version is the only one we have (nothing on CBS.com). For your information (if it can help) the first Youtube episode with 1080p quality is #6149 (2011-09-07). The first one with 480p quality is #6025 (2011-03-25)... Episodes #5642 (September 2009) to #6024 (March 2011) are all in 360p. So if you have some or most of those months in better quality, we'll all be grateful. Thanks

I uploaded more 2007 eps from the anon angel. You all may be interested to know he had the missing #5127 and 5128 featuring Brooke's rape. It's really dark stuff. I had forgotten how intense that period was with Stephanie trying to take Brooke's children away and then Brooke getting raped.

    • I still see Alfonso Ribeiro as Carlton when Martin gets angry.
    • Not that I want to defend Y&R's writers, but it's not as absurd as you'd think and I believe they plucked it from reality (and then bungled it). The Estee Lauder Companies purchased Tom Ford's brand several years ago and I am willing to bet that's how Jabot came to buy Marchetti.
    • Loved the episode today. looking forward to the fallout. Nubian-Sheila looked fantastic, but I wish the writers would cut back on her overuse of figurative language. I loved the "fix yo mind ministries" line though. The background music during her fantasy confrontation with Nicole was epic.
    • Nothing makes sense on this show. I wish there was a garbage can emoji. That sums up 90% of the show right now.
    • You're welcome

      Jane Wyman return episode was head-to-head w/ Cheers season 8 finale. Falcon Crest broadcast syndication began Fall 1986, which overlapped w/ Oprah going national. AFAIK cable broadcasts were Lifetime and Soapnet. I have no memory of cable broadcasts on TBS, TNT, TNN, E!, FX.
    • After today’s rushed and abrupt exit for Summer I immediately realized that Josh & Co. were very blindsided by AL’s decision to leave.  Not the first time this has happened to JG either; see MM & HK’s exits in 2021, MM’s exit in 2022, and of course TSJ’s exit last year. Obviously JG and our executive in charge of nothing Steve Kent don’t have a good handle on casting disruptions. And Mariah having an offscreen affair is [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous!! Meanwhile Tessa’s blonde hair is overkill with the number of blondes on the show already. I said the same thing 3 years ago…of course it was utterly ridiculous everyone was mad at Sally for getting Summer he dream job (don’t ask lol) but there was so much the show could have done without bringing on the Marchetti angle.
    • Does the ball on GL where Philip revealed that he had forced Alan out of Spaulding count or was that not Philip's idea?  There was a ball on AMC where Adam revealed that he had bankrupted Palmer, I think (or was it the other way around?), but I can't remember who threw that.
    • Thanks for honoring Ruth Buzzi. She was a treasure. I'm glad DAYS let her have some fun. I remember Imogene Coca complaining about ATWT just giving her a drab guest part.
    • It's such a delicious set of circumstances that I'm actually a little surprised that I can't think of ones that exactly match. I've just got a couple of close but no cigars (the reveal wasn't public, like when Alexis told Dominique at her and Garrett's engagement party that Garrett lied about being married; or the revealer didn't come up with the idea of the party). Maybe I need to think some more about it.
