Members kalbir Posted September 23, 2023 Members Share Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) B&B is in a lull from when Bill Bell passes the reigns to Bradley in 1993 until Fall 1994. All of Bradley's storylines culminate from Fall 1994 through the first half of 1995, then the tanking starts in the second half of 1995. This was the same time frame that Y&R/B&B time slot rival Reilly's Days took off then blew up in the aftermath of OJ and I think that really shook up Y&R/B&B.

Members Videnbas Posted September 24, 2023 Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 Exactly! The first half of 1995 has a lot going on, and then suddenly after the summer, ALL the major storylines (Taylor's return from the dead, Sheila's goodbye party, Ivana's murder) have culminated and vanished, and we're stuck with the D and E storylines (Jessica/Dylan/Maggie, preteen Rick throwing tantrums, chemistry testing Taylor with Eric) and nothing much else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted September 24, 2023 Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) I like Taylor's Arabian Night a lot more than I expected to in rewatch. Sure it is cheesy at times and the orphan stuff is laying it thick but it is not nearly as problematic as I imagined it to be in 2023. I loved it back then and still like the plot. Actually, the buildup in some parts of the story should been bigger. Taylor was revealed to be alive rather quickly and she sure got used to her new life fast. And the Morroccans surely are welcoming to this stranger. The royal court is portrayed mure nicer than it is in reality (if you have checked your gossip news in recent years and earthquake news reports in 2023). LOL As for 1994 in general: there is quite some stuff going on but focus and climax moments are missing. Backburning Sheila did not work at all. The Jay Garvin stuff happned literally in 5 seconds. Ivana made a decent villain with moral core, yet they hardly played her as such. Dylan & Jessica were super bland but did not eat the show that much. However, that court story was suuuuuuuuper bad. IMO; the show reeks network interference: there are just too many sprinkles of Melrose Place, Models Inc and BH90210 in this year all of a sudden. CBS obvisouly demanded a de-agigng of the cast and stories, IMO. Edited September 24, 2023 by sheilaforever 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted September 24, 2023 Members Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) That's why Fall 1995 Bradley brought back Sheila then Lauren crossed over from Y&R. Funny thing is, Lauren and Sheila weren't really in each other's orbits for much of the time that Lauren was on B&B. Kimberlin Brown was on pregnancy leave in the early months of 1994. We saw this on Y&R too with Summer 1994 frat party and Fall 1994-Spring 1996 Nick and Sharon eating the show. I'd say it was more trying to get the younger audience away from Reilly's Days than influence from the Spelling Fox shows.

Members BoldKara Posted September 30, 2023 Members Share Posted September 30, 2023 Thanks to the Angel/s once again for today's addition of 30 x 1996 episodes! So very grateful. I can see that episode 2277 is a very small file size compared to the rest and is audio only. Could that please be fixed when you are able? Thank you again.

Members boldau Posted October 4, 2023 Members Share Posted October 4, 2023 When Sheila was reciting her prison hospital experience (in a conversation to Brooke) - she used words to the effect of "the unthinkable" when referring to the bashing. Not sure how two women could rape another woman though? Episodes 2333/4 for that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jennybold1974 Posted October 4, 2023 Members Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) Thanks to the Angels for the 1995/1996 episodes! May I ask someone to post the last 3 weeks of episodes please? All I have is the poor 240p version of Dailymotion. Unfortunately the tool I was using to download CBS videos doesn't work anymore (I had mentionned it in a previous post here). I was the one posting eps from October 2020 to June 2021, then some other people took over (thank you) and I posted some eps again in 2022. Since late 2022 I was using the rls.net link (thank you @Marquise ), but it seems like that person is done!? At least nothing posted since September 16 and S36E247 (episode #9106 if my numbers are correct). So I have #9097-#9106 but #9107-#9122 are missing. (PS : the Tenplay australian version is perfect if no one has the CBS one). Sorry for the disruption. EDIT: Thank you to the contributor who uploaded September.

Members yrfan1983 Posted October 12, 2023 Members Share Posted October 12, 2023 Just watched the Dec ‘94 Rotterdam concert eps for the first time. I didn’t realize Bobbie Eakes and Jeff Trachta were such a phenomenon in Europe back then. Anyone on this board from Europe remember this timeframe? I’m wondering what the root of their appeal was, so much so that fans would fill a giant Rotterdam concert stadium on multiple nights! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted October 13, 2023 Members Share Posted October 13, 2023 B&B has always attracted more audiences overseas, it seems like, then it does in the U.S. This goes back to the beginning where I think it was Italy or Greece, that called the show "Caroline" because Joanna Johnson was so popular over in one of those Countries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted October 14, 2023 Members Share Posted October 14, 2023 So I've made it to this Eric/Taylor thing, and I'm curious, were people fans of this back then? Because I'm not lol To me, Eric has just come off as creepy and obsessive the whole time. A vibe that I didn't really get when Eric/Brooke were becoming a thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
