Um, so we have that ever lengthy thread on classic Y&R articles and discussion, I was wondering if we could do one for B&B? I mean the whole show is a hot mess and has been well at least since 2007/2008 and unwatchable but I'd like to think back to when I loved the show 1991ish-2006. A lot of stories liked and/or remember well have now been long forgotten like Ivana's murder and the mystery around it, Macy vs. Karen, Connor(someone mentioned him recently!) Dylan and Michael, CJ/Becky, Sly, Grant. Hell Macy was my favorite character right after Sally of course.

Depending on how well the 1987 and 1988 episodes do, Shout!TV might upload the rest of the Bill Bell years.

If they air past episode 250... I'm definitely recording, since I love the quality. We could replace some not so good looking eps. 😜

The shedule says that after episodes 250 it starts from episode 1 again

The ShoutTV stream looks to be full HD and far superior to season 1 episodes on YouTube which are 480p. I remember quite a number of those early YouTube episodes have a weird anamorphic zoom (episode 28 is just one example), the zoom was slight but noticeable to an eagle eye.

If Shout is anything like the other FAST channels, they’ll loop the same batch for months and months. But hopefully they’ll progress quicker given the number of episodes available.

First, I'm so touched by this comment, you can't even imagine. I don't know what I've done to deserve such a compliment... but I'm deeply thankful. ❤️  

I wish you happy Weekend too and see you around!

Sampled some season 1 for the first time. Was Kristin Forrester an actual character in the 80s or was she inserted via AI so we'd appreciate Daphne Rose?

Kristin improves SOOO much as the seasons go on. You can't believe.

Good to know. Though before that happens, for sh*ts & giggles I'd love a scene with her & Mark.

She had a very rough start. I agree. Me and my husband cringed so much. Especially when she had scenes with Susan Flannery. She could chew her up and spit her out with acting circles around her. But as soon as Clarke arrives and their relationship evolves... she becomes a lot more natural and by the end of their storyline... she's a completely different girl. Not Meryl Streep, of course... or Susan Flannery... but much better from the start.

One... that didn't improve was OG Thorne. But he and Ronn Moss were both so wooden that they looked like brothers. I didn't like the second Thorne, the singer. He had a strange vibe to him and tendency to over-act.

Yeah OGT isn't great either, but not on the Mark/Kristin level. That said he's much better than what I remember of #2 who seemed like he belonged on a TGIF show.

Refreshing to see a blue collar version of this show, with only 7 rich characters. The current show needs some strivers.

Season 18 has just started on the YouTube channel (3 episodes per day), and the livestream as well. Let's hope they fill in all the gaps that are there in the current Season 18 playlist, which I dare say will disappear once they create a playlist for these new HD versions.

Susan Flannery took all the no talents back to acting school.
