Great news for all fans. Bold is being released once again on DVD in Germany. Box 11 and 12 now contain each 50 episodes, instead of the regular Box 1-10, which had 25 episodes in a box. Box 11 and 12 have episodes 251-300 and 300-350.

The release is on October 4th and that means fans can own the first 350 episodes. A little birdie told me that they plan to release 10 more boxes or the next 500 episodes on DVD. 

The DVDs will have both English and German audio. They are continuing from 250, where it ended years ago.

Yeah I'm kind of shocked because DVD is becoming obsolete and it's a one time purchase vs having to pay monthly for streaming and hasn't it been like a decade since the first release?? I feel like it's a great sign that the Bells are still working these deals and there's still interest. It shows that putting the show on YT for free has actually not hurt them. Perhaps German fans were interested in the streaming episodes and they determined there was a market for the dubbed version. Soap fans skew older and may be less likely to be fluent in English.

Wow - that is an unexpected surprise.... 

 

release is October 4! Seems they skipped the "bonus materials" from previous releases but instead lowered the price for this a bit

I have had contact with "Fernsehjuwelen" too. They also want to release 4 Boxes with each 45 episodes. These four Boxes should cover the episodes 7800-7979 that aired 2 years ago on PayTV.

I asked them about German/english episodes from Y&R, DAYS and General Hospital. They said, that there arent any plans and they dont know in which archive these shows would be.

I hope that they will be really successful. My dream is, they sell licenses to RTL or another streaming provider. So i hope one day we will see episodes 1700-1800 in german language

And....i noticed this on the boldandbeautiful Channel on YouTube:

I checked the playlists and couldnt find any "new" Videos or changes.

We know, that in season 3 episode 678 was missing (Duplicate of 677) and in season 7 episode 1665 was missing too.

I also know that the interest for Restless in Europe is just... not at the level that will warrant a release, sadly. But it's such a great project for Bold - to have all of this officially released in pristine DVD quality with both English and German (my husband often prefers to watch in German) is just a miracle. 

Just 15 years ago I remember a user uploading Bold from episode 1 in youtube - in the platform's early early Chris Crocker Leave Britney Alone days... and the quality was... like the tape had burned in a house fire and then recovered. And it was ENOUGH for me, I was so happy and so glad to have a glimpse into the early days. Sadly that profile got deleted decades ago, but the dream of seeing Bold from day 1 didn't.

Now... everything is online, in much much better, some would even say great quality. I never knew I would live to see this day, seriously!

Ah, thanks @rsclassicfanforever for asking about the other shows even if the news is disappointing!

 

B&B certainly is the perfect show for this sort of release... only 30 minutes, less than 4 decades

 and with great narrative continuity where a current viewer could watch day 1 and perfectly understand what's going on and even recognize some of the sets! (But, I'm not sure what a viewer from 1987 would think of today's show :D)

    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      Me when someone asks me to be proper and demure. 
    • This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.  
    • Just thinking how the Ruth/Leticia guest spot really cemented how Days had changed. Stunt casting with a campy/comedy character in a 'wacky' storyline was something that a few years previously would have been completely out of place on Days (and most other soaps for that matter).
    • I am interested to see how they handle Leslie/Dana down the road. If she continues in this path, it would be unrealistic to have her around. Like other shows have done this with a 'villian' character and ended up with people looking stupid putting up with someone they detest. Another thought-could they be building up to a murder story? Maybe Les/Dan will be left in a coma and we will have a whodunit with several characters as suspect. It would also be a chance to redeem her I wonder how long the show will go w/o resorting to soap cliche stories-twins,switched at birth, murder mystery, long lost child etc
    • Yeah, Martin really did make me laugh when him and Smitty jumped up to drag Leslie out. I am interested in seeing how this fallout will impact his storyline as well. Especially since he is so protective regarding his family/family's image. I am interested in seeing how he will interact with Eva for the time being, they did have a warmer interaction earlier on once they met. But he seems to have doubts about her possibly being Ted's right now. I wonder how long it might take for him to come around with her. I could see the younger generation warming up to her quicker than the older ones. Though of course I think there will be anger/tension for a while regarding the reveal and her role in it. Perhaps Naomi/Chelsea will ease up on Eva first then eventually Martin/Kat might down the line. I really do love Nicole. I'm glad that DD is playing her. She really is the heart of the family and also agree the show. She is so easy to root for and I'm looking forward to seeing how things work out for her. I am enjoying the development of most of the characters on this show. I enjoy most of them including Bill with his trifling self lol. I do feel that Bill's love for his daughters is genuine and that gives him some depth. A few of the characters I don't care for that much (like Bill, Ashley, Vanessa). I wasn't too big on Andre at first, but I am warming up more to him as the actor is settling into the role. I like most of the characters on this show. Also, I am interested in seeing what happens if Eva indeed goes and lives with the new doctor that was introduced. I could see this adding another layer to her story, maybe she will become more vixen-ish, on what type of relationship they end up having. And/or maybe she will end up becoming more hardened as she deals with being an outcast, especially if she falls out with Leslie as well. I think that AM will do a good job of showcasing the different layers of this character as she deals with the fallout of the affair/paternity reveal.

      Got another sad news from the Bahamian community (not a celebrity)  https://www.instagram.com/p/DJMSrYCgyes/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Former Bahamian Senate President J Henry Bostwick, Husband of former 1st Bahamian Female Cabinet Minister Dame Janet Bostwick is dead yesterday on his 86th birthday.    Thanks and for those who've aren't familiar with the talk shows in The Bahamas on this thread here, his talk show named The Freedom March with Dr Rodney Moncur that airs on ILTV and The Beat 103.5 FM Nassau every weekday afternoons. IIRC, he suffered a illness before he died.  Here's the link for his final taping of the show before his death: https://ewnews.com/this-is-powerful-rodney-moncurs-final-sign-off/
