Nothing tops the strange versions of episodes with the time stamps and the director screaming in the start. I have grown to love them.

P.S No - the no-background music ones take the Award for eccentricity!

I remember one episode the director (it was a guy, probably Michael Stich) is shushing everyone while shouting the episode number and tape date. I was like whoa!

And Miss Deveney Dixon, I mean Kelly "Bold and the Beautiful 5452 10 21 2008". She gets straight to the point!

I just had a neat idea. What if we did a compilation of all the director shouts and make it a two hour long movie?

i think at the beginig that Grant was not to be this arogant person that they later turned him into. And the first time Granta and Taylor met was fun

 the way they hid that they know eachother. And after he was shot he became more arogant and it made no sence when they wanter to tell us that by blaming Ridge he wanted to protect Rick. Like if he has split personality.

Are you watching Summer 1996 right now? In that case, Tylo left for Melrose Place with episode #2308 that aired June 8, 1996. In #2353 (August 9), Taylor reappears in the plane sitting next to Ridge. If you don't know about the whole real life drama, it is more or less an organic development and classic soap surprise. It only gets weird when Tylo is HEAVILY pregnant for the fashion show engagement shocker. She does not leave for a proper maternity leave at all in 1996/1997- either due to clever pre- and post-recording of scenes - or to stick it to Aaron Spelling.

So much of 1996-1998 seems like Bradley's initial plans were derailed due to Hunter Tylo being so in-and-out (departure for Melrose Place that fell through and two pregnancy leaves) and also the pregnancy leaves of Tracey Bregman, KKL, and Kimberlin Brown.

    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
    • Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.
