The producer Casey K provided the link to that site.
I think that it is simply an index page to the show's existing youtube page. For anyone who'd like that sort of menu or index.
At least that's my impression from looking at it. I could be wrong.

I have noticed some big improvements in the IMDB database, regarding the dates and episode numbers. These numbers were completely off since the multiple preemptions in late 2019 (for the impeachment hearings) and 2020 (covid break). They were already posting 9050-9060 recaps while we hadn't even seen the 9000th episode. Now it seems correct, although I still have a difference of 1. For me the episode that aired on Monday, December 11 has the number #9165. IMBD says #9166. Maybe it's still linked to the confusion about 8426 and 8426A, IDK. I also see some major improvements for the 1992-1996 years. A few years ago I tried to make a complete episode count with all the characters from 1987-2020, but a lot of data was missing during these 5 years, now I think it'd be easier to make that list again with correct numbers.  Thank you to whoever improved that if someone on this thread worked on it. Also thanks for the preemption dates from 1987-1995, we're very grateful to have all the correct informations.

I see some posters are noticing issues with the sound in some episodes from 1995-1996. I haven't noticed it so far. The videoland quality is still much better than Youtube so if a handful of episodes are incomplete or musicless, I don't mind. Thank you for the 2001-2002 episodes, they are much better than the previous versions.

@divinemotion I get the current episodes from this page. https://scene-rls.net/?s=the+bold+and+the+beautiful&submit=Find      But the first episodes of October are missing. November 2 is missing too. But this person is doing a fantastic job, you can download episodes in 480, 720 or 1080,.... avi, mp4 or mkv. The recent ones (MeGusta) even have subtitles. I delete some of them once I've watched, but  hopefully someone  kept them all and will upload them to the vault.

IMDb is a pain to deal with. I make contributions on occasion, but the amount of steps required to make even the smallest of changes is time consuming and arduous. As for the special 'A' episodes, IMDb does not allow you to use nonstandard episode numbers. They have to be numbered in a certain way or the system rejects it (screenshot below).

Thank you for trying to fix it!   
Since IMDB won't accept "8318A" for July 20, 2020,
(the 'catch-up' episode after the covid break)
would IMDB accept something like "831801" ?

And the other one is December 24, 2020 that is "8246A".
I don't know why there was an insert episode then.  Speculation: Maybe they expected that there'd be a Christmas Eve preemption but there wasn't, so then at the last minute filmed something to insert into the broadcast order for that week?

Would IMDB accept 824601 for that date?

I tried and it still wouldn't accept it. I think it's a limitation on their end where the system tries to arrange the episodes in the correct numerical order. So you basically have to treat the two insert episodes as non-existent, or include a note on the non 'A' suffix episodes explaining it.

Yes, Sheila was iconic.....   But then Brad Bell did what other writers have also done with their villains, he took her too far. Now it makes no sense at all that any of Sheila's victims would accept her in their life in any way. She may have been cleared of the criminal charges against her, but that doesn't mean that Steffy, Finn, Li, Eric, Brooke or anyone else that Sheila has hurt has to accept her as a part of their lives.

IMDB is off. (read the last several posts before yours.).

Here are the current episodes (I'll put the unaired ones behind spoiler tags)

  • The first episode number for each airdate is the *actual* episode number.  They start with Episode #.
  • The "(season, episode)" numbers for each airdate is how CBS tracks it in the USA.  That might track differently in other countries.

The episode descriptions are what the show lists. But with B&B, some scenes are partially repeated from one episode to the next, so the descriptions could include a scene that also airs in a prior or next episode.

The December 5 description "Thorne returns to L.A." is what the show released, but that's misleading. Actually, Thorne was out of town and returned *to the show* via being shown on the other end of a telephone call.  He arrived in L.A. December 6.

    • Garneau was in the Liberal party and his riding was in Montreal. He was the first Canadian in outer space.
    • I agree. I really have enjoyed this story from the beginning. I feel like it needed the time for us to care about Doug. They've done a nice job of explaining his motives and making me care for him. I still feel like he's doomed and Vanessa will end up being a widow and now I'm invested in that *not* happening now that I've fallen for him. Friday was good but so was the entire week. I think they're doing such a nice job of keeping things moving. We got good movement with Bill's story this week, Chelsea is attempting to date, Andre and Dani are having tough conversations about their relationship, of course Anita reunited with Sharon. There is *so* much going on and I didn't even cover all of it.  I wish all of the soaps would take a page out of BTG book and start rotating their stories. I love that everybody is getting a chance to shine and they don't just sit on one lead story to the point you get sick of it. 
    • Did Jordan Clarke have a departure sometime between 1985 and 1989? I know Robert Newman had three runs: 1981-1984, 1986-1991, 1993-end.
    • Well, they usually weren't on the show at the time for long until the late 90's. But yeah, they really deserved a story centered on them, and not through the lens of Reva.
    • Chelsea was doing the absolute most today! Why was she introducing her sister to a woman she doesnt know? That whole scene was embarrassing. Madison needs to stay away from her bc she is too immature
    • Gosh, what a waste with Lunacy. Why have her live with $B, reveal Finn, pardon her, etc What makes this story incredibly hollow is that what Luna is asking isn't unreasonable - to spend time with her cousin father. She's not asking to move in with them. How hard with it be for Finn to throw her a bone by, say, I'll meet you for lunch/coffee once at week at the hospital cafeteria. Lunacy isn't going to hurt Finn. In fact, all her crimes were related to finding her father and it turns out to be someone she's loved her entire life. Instead of course-correcting the nonsense of last summer, Brad somehow found a way to make this worse! That's a skill... Of all the younger actors B&B has cast during the past 5 years, LY has shown the most growth and range. Why get rid of her? 
    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
