I've been dipping my toes into 1987 back again... just scrolling through episodes and watching more important scenes... I am crying, laughing and getting goosebumps... like... every single episode. It's SOOOO good. It's so strange how with time you actually forget how good the show was, you get accustomed to the lower standard...

Sheila - So Stephanie who's crazy now, who's crazy now, as she laughs and sips champagne while they pan to Stephanie in the mental institution rocking back and forth in that chair.

 

Man when this show is good it's GOOD.

 

Sheila and Grant had some good chemistry

Hopefully the Angel is able to upload some more of Season 10 to keep us going.

  There's 40ish episodes left to complete Season 10 in the vault. Real shame the youtube channel jumped from the end of season 8 to season 13. There's a lot of people there left hanging wanting to see season 9 and the bridging seasons.

Yes. Luckily it's already in the Vault (and complete from what I could see).

Yes, I'm hoping for more S10 uploads from Videoland! I do have Videoland but don't have a very good way of saving the episodes in good quality (I used to do screen recordings but the quality was uneven).

It's odd that the yt channel decided to skip to S13, but the good part is that they uploaded in better quality and three episodes a day, so it completes the collection sooner. Pretty soon with some luck we'll have almost complete from 1987 to early 00s, which in my opinion is the classic era.

There was a rumor they'd start again from Season 1 in HD, but that remains to be seen. In the meantime, it would be great for them to continue covering through to Season 18 (where they sort of started putting older episodes up), and hopefully fill in all the missing episodes along the way, so they're all available in English. The biggest dream would be for them to upload all of the seasons in HD, replacing existing inferior quality episodes. It does seem they want the channel to succeed with them having the actors preview each month now, so hopefully that is their plan.

Unfortunately i found out that paypal is not an option too. I wonder if the so called virtual credit cards are. Some sites does not recognize european virtual credit cardts as european and allow transactions. Not that i have one to check.

Videoland is only about 300 episodes before the HD Youtube 1999 episodes... In just half a year they will catch up with them and by that time Youtube will be in late 2003. Just in half a year... Most of the 1987-2003 period will be complete. I think what Bold did is groundbreaking.... to sell their entire catalogue from day 1 to new platforms and television stations - multiple ones. The Youtube channel, as much as we criticized it, is also revolutionary. Bold is now the first 9000+ episode American soap opera that has basically uploaded and made their entire run available. That's nearly 40 seasons and thousands of hours of video material. Now I hope Y&R sees this great example and finds a way to stream their show from DAY 1.

    • I feel bad for judging a child, but, to be fair, she's over 40 now. My daughter was into Halloweentown when it reran on the Disney Channel in the 2010s. I wasn't impressed then, either.
    • Isn't that funny how certain memories as young children stick with you through life... Haha I totally get what you mean. That's how I felt with GL in the beginning, but then I got used to it. Seeing so many of my favorite AMC characters on GL was wild - Walker, Irizarry, Dusay, Budig, Aleksander, Gil Rogers, etc.  Ironically, it helps that Irizarry and Dusay played both mother/son in both shows. I know Marcy Walker was wasted on GL as Tangie, but selfishly I'm so glad she was. When she left GL and returned immediately to AMC as Liza Colby, man was it such a great storyline. The Tad/Dixie/Liza triangle was so emotional, tense and memorable. The AMC fans got lucky with that one. WRCW, Tad/Liza working together, the affair, then Jason Sheffield and the shooting on-set... all amazing stuff.   LOL! 
    • I remember thinking that he was fantastic after Reva's 1990 "death," with his grief and attempted relationship with Harley. I also remember the cute Marah, not the toothy chick from Halloweentown.
    • Totally agree - we have much to learn about Vernon, and I'd love to see it.
    • I've enjoyed Vernon but I wouldn't be opposed to learning more about his life beyond his political work. What kind of family does he come from? Does he have any siblings? I feel like that could be an interesting thing to look at.

    • I've always said, Robert Newman does not get enough credit for the popularity of Josh/Reva. Had he stayed in '91, and had years to build other relationships before Kim returned, I'm not sure we'd have been stuck with "always".
    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
