Game Shows

I really wish those early episodes would be made available on a streaming service. I remember reading quotes in recent years from Tom Hallick and Janice Lynde saying they wish they had never left Y&R. Hallick said he had been lured by false promises to NBC about projects that never came to be and Lynde said since Y&R was her first TV gig she felt that there were bigger greener pastures to explore, but realized she made a mistake in hindsight.

Re: Trish Stewart. Not too long ago I saw her on reruns of Match Game 74. Kay Stevens (the big mouth) was impressed with her. She mentioned that Bill Bell was also writing Days at the time and Bell was was praising Stewart as an actress and her work on Y&R.

I do personally feel that Hallick and Lynde made poor decisions when they left Y&R; Brad and Leslie were the roles of a lifetime for them. Alas, people have dreams (and illusions) of grandeur, and often believe in their own publicity.

Stewart's work on Y&R was top-notch. Her performances during Chris Brooks' rape storylines were gripping. Those first several years of the show were amazingly good.
