Considering the actor had finished up a 3 year stint playing the dark Lawerence on Days right before joining BB...there was some talk whether he was another Lawrence or a nice character.

In fact, critics in 1994 thought he was wasted because there seemed to be no direction with the character.  However I do agree that he was a dark character pretending not to be.  Leading Sally on then going to Macy when she's single thus causing mother/daughter angst.

Meanwhile, Ivana was moved out of the Dylan/Jessica orbit and paired with a newly single Thorne.  So maybe 1994 was a set up year for this tale to climax in 1995.

 

Yes, I agree with the "dark character pretending not to be" assessment. It is kind of telling that he is the ONLY character who managed to drive a serious wedge between Sally and Macy - while acting perfectly charming to both of them.

And how his actions force "angelic" characters like Keith and Darla to do damage control.

It's interesting that he just came from playing a dark character on another soap - I didn't know that! But then it makes sense that the writers may have had something dark in mind for him when casting the actor.

The actor playing Anthony fit the dark character hiding under a handsome, charming face to a tee.  Anthony was also a talented designer.  Sally fell hard for him but she was always a sucker for a pretty face-Bucky Boy anyone?  It was kind of sad how infatuated she was with him, even moving him in with her.  Anthony went to a really dark place and it was rather shocking.  I liked Ivana but they did a 180 on her character to fit Anthony's evil plans. Michael Sabatino was perfect for this part and Anthony drove a lot of story for a while.

I still miss the fashion aspect of the stories at B&B.  I have heard that they are too expensive to the show but when they were eliminated it took the show to the lowest common denominator-triangles and endless partner swapping, often seeming incestuous due to the small cast. 

Classic B&B is a treat.  Current B&B-not so much.

I can imagine they were expensive to shoot. Classic B&B fashion shows used to have a lot of extras, choreography, lighting, music, clothes that seemed to have been made especially for the occasion, as well as feature a large part of the cast. I just watched Felicia's fashion show on the official Youtube account and it was more like a dance performance.

I just looked at the May 2005 uncut episodes and compared them to the transcripts on TV megasite. I trimmed off some of Part 4 because it jumped from the May 24 episode to clips from April 13, 15, and 18 (Thomas and Gaby scenes only). So I cut out those April 13 scenes and uploaded as a partial episode (you uploaded April 15 and 18 already). Just FYI.

 

Thank you so much. I still have more but didn't have time to upload. I will try today or tomorrow.

Does anyone want me to upload complete 2010 in times better quality than the youtube ones we already have? I found the complete year in one old flash drive. It's Cristal clear quality. 

Yes please!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I would love to have that year in better quality!

Sure. I will upload everything soon. 

And let's not forget to say thank you to the person still uploading the classic episodes... now up to 1994. Thank you thank you thank you.

I want to say thanks to all uploaders.  B&B has been my favorite soap for years-even though the last few have been mostly terrible.  I do love the classic shows and they are hard to find.

It’s just UNBELIEVABLE that the first 8 season are soon online in its entirety. A dream come true!

I have been going through DVDs sent to me by an anon angel. Uploaded some missing 2005, 2006, and 2007 episodes. Unfortunately the angel didn't have all of them, but every little bit helps.  I'll do more later this week.

Thank you so much! For 2006-2007 I think you can use the "missing episode 2005-2009" file, most episode numbers were still missing in English (but they're in German).

I still haven't had the time to make the list for 2000-2004. I will try to upload it under 2000s in the coming days.

@divinemotion I would love that too. The quality for 2010 is really not good with 360p and the Youtube version is the only one we have (nothing on CBS.com). For your information (if it can help) the first Youtube episode with 1080p quality is #6149 (2011-09-07). The first one with 480p quality is #6025 (2011-03-25)... Episodes #5642 (September 2009) to #6024 (March 2011) are all in 360p. So if you have some or most of those months in better quality, we'll all be grateful. Thanks

i haven't got tha time to come and say thank you to each and veryone who is uploading episodes now! THANK YOU! when i have the time i will watch them finished watching 1993 but have no time to start 1994

I uploaded more 2007 eps from the anon angel. You all may be interested to know he had the missing #5127 and 5128 featuring Brooke's rape. It's really dark stuff. I had forgotten how intense that period was with Stephanie trying to take Brooke's children away and then Brooke getting raped.

Does anyone have Sheila/ Dr. Garvin death in good quality? Was it on Cala? What is episode numer and date?
