That's what I was thinking, she looked too pretty next to SF (who was gorgeous, don't get me wrong) and too young to be the mother of all those kids.

 

I think there was also a lot of comment about having too many blondes on the show at the time.

Does anyone know where I could find a picture of Chuck Walling?  He played Charlie MacClaine, the uncle that turned out to be Jake's molester? I want to add his photo to the Soap Hoppers thread, but have had a really hard time finding one. TIA.

A tiny pic can be found here:

Or a screenshot from 17.47 of this episode?

 

Thank you so much!   I've been searching for a pic (as well as several friends). That just leaves one "Soap Hopper" without a photo--  Caleb Stoddard (one of the Derek Thurstons on Y&R).   

I've been watching B&B the last few days here for the first time in years, and I'm not feeling this new Ridge at all. Ronn Moss wasn't much of an actor but he was Ridge.

I'm not sure how far behind we are, but Steffy and Bill have just slept together and right now everyone else is slowly finding out. It's actually quite good soap, with a major reveal like this slowly finding its way around the cast. Tonight's second episode (we get two each day) ended with Ridge showing up in Bill's office.

One thing that struck me was that Brooke's livingroom seems to have shrunk in size. Last time I watched it looked much bigger. I guess it's a result of shrinking budgets?

Flashback Friday!

Thanks to a Polish user on YouTube a lot classic B&B (1989-1992) can be streamed these days. I just finished my way re-watching 1991. Not all episodes are up for viewing (and sometimes the recaps I found for the rest were not precise enough), so the following data is only 95% correct, but it still gives a pretty detailed pictured on who was front and center so many years ago.

Thanks for this! I think the total number of episodes is accurate based off of my own listings for 1991 Y&R ( based on my calculations they had 251 episodes that year)

 

it’s interesting how low some of these numbers are (particularly for people I thought had more front burner story this year like Jake, Margo, Thorne, Felicia etc...) but the overall balance is better then anything on the B&B the last 6-7 years.

 

was Donna given a non-exit? I’m curious to see Mary Sheldon, I’m guessing she wasn’t really a temp and they just wrote Donna out.

The Donna bit was so weird. She was out of story for ages and just a waste bin for any man Macy was interested infor the most part of 1989-1991. Cut to March 1991: the show suddenly begins to rekindle Bill and Donna. After three episodes, suddenly Carrie Mtchum is gone (due to contract dispute? illness?) and replaced by Marie Sheldon and wraps it up within another three episodes. Storm consoles Donna and applauds her for turning Bill down - and they are never to be seen until Ridge & Brooke's beach wedding in 1994. A couple of weeks/months (?) later, Brooke mentions that both Donna and Storm have moved to San Francisco.

 

As for the balance: like 1990, the year was EXTREMLY Ridge-centric. Yet, there many B-stories and it was one of the busiest years ever for Sally. There even was an episode with feautured just her, Clarke and Julie. And Darlene Conley knocked it all out fo the park. All of it: campy fashionista, vengeful wife and frightened mother of age. 1991 was her year, as well as of Susan Flannery's (the homeless story on Skid Row).

 

 

FYI - some more facts about the contract cast of 1991

Have not been here in forever since I have not watched a current soap consistently in the past 2 years, but my friend gave me some B&B episodes, Days episodes and a few YR episodes as well that I thought I'd share. The Days and possibly the YR episodes may have already been uploaded but idk about the B&B. Least not in total English. Also not sure if the dates are all accurate. 

 

Theres not a ton, but they'll probably take me awhile to convert and upload, but here are the first few episodes from october of 1992

No problem. I know you're always uploading some YR.

I think I may have some YR eps from December of 1992 that you haven't uploaded. I'll have to check and upload them after this playlist if so

Yes That would be great, the only December 1992 I have of Y&R are from Dec 22,23,24,28,29,30, so I'm not sure if they are the same as yours? 
It's a shame that James the guy from Indiana, (Where the B&B came from)  hasn't updated any of his collection in over a year...I'm still wondering what happen?
