I was very excited, I thought they may really have 1988.

 Is there any way to see if they are telling the truth before purchasing ? I would not like to waste so much money but I would do anything to see more episodes.

Actually it is kind of strange... all of the comments from people who bought from them are new facebook accounts and they say things that a real person wouldn't say. It makes me think that they made fake accounts so that they could leave reviews and trick people into thinking they really have all of the episodes..

There's nothing for you to apologize for.

 I don't think anyone is blaming you for mentioning it, they just want to know how your experience went because other people have been saying it's a scam. Personally I was curious how many episodes they provided for Y&R 1988, if it was literally every episode from that year.

I am at the beging at 1994 and all i hear is that Anthony is such a nice guy. The actor plays it well. But i can not stop thinking of what i know will happen and how he plyaed both Macy and Sally. By the way i almost forgot about the scene in the hot tube with the melting swimsuits lol

I know, I wrote a lengthy post about him a few pages back about the very same thing! He is very charming and funny, but knowing how he will turn out it's pretty much impossible to see him that way and NOT look for signs of what is to come. To me, the scene where he used his supposed grief over a dead cat to gain Macy's sympathy took on a whole new meaning knowing he will pull that exact stunt again under far more sinister circumstances. And his plan with the swimsuits is not as harmless as it at first appears (and again, he does it one more time but creepier when Macy is trying on her wedding dress right before things get macabre).

And there is no way he does NOT realize that he is driving a wedge between Sally and Macy, hurting both of them in the process. (And ironically, hurting Sally and Macy - to the point of almost separating them permanently - is another thing he will do again but worse.)

That being said, he is a fascinating character I really enjoy watching.

I revisited this old episode from 2002 in which Eric finds out that Deacon is Hope's father. There are so many paralelles between 2002 and 2022. Sheila causes a major shooting death and a character turns out to be alive. Brooke & Deacon are the subject of scandal. In this episode, Deacon is wallowing at a bar, drinking alcohol (literally happened this week on B&B).

I've also just started watching early Brook/Ridge/Taylor in depth for the fist time, now that the endless triangle has been revisited on the current show. In many ways 2002 parallels 1992. Brooke is at the center of paternity drama once again involving Bridget. Brooke gives birth at the Big Bear cabin, and someone involved in the paternity drama hast to deliver her baby. (First Ridge in '92 for Bridget then in '02  for Hope). And of course Sheila is stirring up trouble surrounding parentage. Finn in 2022, Bridget in 1992.

i really enjoy it since this is the beginig of some years that i do not remember well due to watching them on German TV (at that time i could only figure out the main things they say). It seems to me that the years i have most rewathced are 1987-1989 and after that 1997 - 1999. These periods of time i have watched over various tv programs years ago. Between them 1994-1996 i do not remember well. Then comes the period of 2002-2010 that i barerly remember and i am rewatching 2006 form the YT chanel.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

    • Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.  
    • It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you
