A couple questions (sorry if this has been discussed before):

What's going on with the end credits for the early 1990 episodes? Seems like they're just repeating the same one (Deveney Marking directing, Maria Arena script) over and over, having replaced the actual credits. Does this go on for a while?

The 1997 episodes being uploaded to YT right now have zero background music. Surely this isn't how they were broadcast? What's going on over there?! LOL

On the Videoland there is already E2030 and we have only E1910 so far. Is there any chance of getting at least some small update soon?

I wish any VPN would work in my country, as there are many USA old shows/series I'd like to watch and they're available only on some foreign streaming services which are blocked for many countries.

I have no idea why are they blocking these kind of things as many people are willing to pay to see it in good video quality.

The Vault has not been working or accepting uploads for several weeks (both the B&B and Y&R/GL vaults). I spoke to @ChickenNuggetz92 and he said he will have to change it over to a new account again, which takes some time. So I guess once that is done we will get a big batch of episodes all at once which is what happened last time. Of course if some angel wants to share via mega/dropmefiles/mediafire etc that would be wonderful and appreciated.

I’m not watching the YouTube uploads for this season, but even with Videoland the closing titles for 1987-1990 episodes have been sometimes “fishy”, meaning not in sync of what we have seen onscreen and it sometimes appeared to be the same credits for many episodes. As for the 1997 episodes: they are simply messing things up. We have discussed this a couple of pages back...

Thanks for the detailed recap. I noticed this, too, and was completely unaware during the original watch that Taylor's story was botched up repeatedly probably due to Tylo's outs. 

 

@slick jonesand other trivia buffs: Any idea who played DR. PARMELL in #1850? a doctor with whom Eric is discussing the proecure of having a vasectomy.

The longest commitment she gave the show was 97 - 2002. There were still rumors in there she would leave but she never did (I think partly because she had the Spelling court case during that early period). Apparently Bill Bell wouldn't even entertain the thought of recasting. Someone from Twitter posted an old interview with HT where she said a part of what the issue in 2002 was that she had always dealt with Bill and not Brad when it came to having outs or being able to explore other things but by that time Bill already had early onset Alzheimers so she dealt solely with Brad.

It's interesting that even Brad ended up calling and asking her Back

    • I do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.
    • It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.' 
    • And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.
    • @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

    • Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.  
    • I figured the "long" was already implied 
    • You'll be very impressed
