Members vetsoapfan Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) I imagine TPTB chose to air it AGAIN (sigh), primarily because it's already been butchered (I mean...trimmed) to fit in into an hour broadcast. There are many more commercials crammed into a 60-minute program now than there were during the 1980s. We'll be deprived of seeing the Brooks sisters' reunion once more.

Members Planet Soap Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Agreed. And speaking of GH I noticed that they're usually willing to show flashbacks despite recasts. A prime example was the 3 Carly's coming back in 2014, or David Lewis being shown in flashbacks during Jane Elliot's tribute show (despite John Ingle dying in the role of Edward Q). It would be awesome if Y&R would be willing to do the same with Ashley and Jack. I hope whatever else they air besides the wedding is something we cant find online like Phillip II's death or Kay haunting Suzanne. If they decide to air classics as weekly arc's eventually, it would be cool to see (again): the week of Sheila baby switch/Nina shooting David; the week of Lauren/Sheila firehouse (show coinciding episodes on B&B); the week of Veronica shooting Nikki; Marge/Kay conclusion Edited April 3, 2020 by ironlion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 Another reason they might be repeating a previous rerun is...who's actually going in to work on prepping things for air? They might be trying to require as few people as possible working for as little time as possible to make this happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aback Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 They must be setting it up for editors to work from home (I hope). This is only the first classic episode. The show won't be back for a long, long time. We'll see what else they'll pull out of their hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ltm1997 Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Well I’d think they’d maybe show a couple and then introduce them as ones for the “die hard fans” or the “long-running fans”. They probably won’t, but it would be nice. Even if they showed stuff from 1983. After 1984/85, the show really wasn’t worth watching for me. And I’m only 23, so I only can see the old episodes by what people find and post, buying DVDs, or what used to be on YouTube YEARS ago that I was too stupid at the same not to save LOL. They’ve gotta add some variety, you know? I can understand how some people might be confused, but it would be sooo fun to see the good ol’ days of the Kay/Jill rivalry when it began and the first few years of it.

Members ltm1997 Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 I phrased it wrong Please register in order to view this content . I was trying to explain that I love watching episodes from the first 11/12 years of the show by buying DVDs from Soap Trading or purchasing sites and that I'll pretty much only watch episodes from those years. When I see stuff from 1986-the present, it doesn't satisfy my Y&R needs like those first years did. I did phrase that weird though LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRfan23 Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 They really could have shown anything other then the wedding again...that episode of Victor seeing Nikki strip for the first time is itching to be re-Aired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 I'll give CBS a lot of slack here. In fact, I'd rather have them air any Y&R(R)/B&B(R) rather than completely dropping them for TPIR(R)/LMAD (R). I'm choosing not to stream either of the airings today, but I'm sure they'll be ones that will be worth watching. If you figure production resumes July 1 - it'll be mid- or late-July before new ones start to air. B&B will clearly crank them out fast so they get out first. I wonder if B&B ended up banking extra episodes because of the 12+ Impeachment pre-emptions or if they simply slowed down production? At least ABC has given exact info on GH, CBS has been silent about inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted April 3, 2020 Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 Are you referring to the guy with Ashley? If so, that wasn't Nicholas Walker. Walker was already on Capitol at that time. The guy portraying Eric Garrison was Brian Matthews. Matthews and Walker did look very much alike. Speaking of Walker, he will be showing up on The Doctors reruns soon.

Members Soapsuds Posted April 4, 2020 Author Members Share Posted April 4, 2020 I thought it was Walker. The resemblance is uncanny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
