Y&R to air classic episodes

Speaking of Terry Lester and Deborah Adair. Here is a rare photo of them and Lilibet Stern during the Jill/Jack/Patty triangle which played out during 1981

That’s a great photo!!

[will81]

Yeah and very rare, don't remember seeing too many photos of Deborah from the first couple of years she was on the show, apart from Soap Digest photos from scenes of the show they would run with the synopsis

CBS Daytime on the whole was so awesome in the late 1980s/early 1990s. There was the game show block and all four daytime dramas were amazing to watch.

 

OMG, I can't believe we get to see an early 1980s episode!

 

An all Victor week should include EB's first episode, Victor sees Nikki at the Bayou, EB's first scenes w/ TL and ED.

 

I never thought much of Mark Derwin's acting on Y&R and then a few months after his role on Y&R ends he shows up on Guiding Light as a detective. Talk about contrasts in characters LOL. It was surprising to me how he became so popular on GL, with winning a 1993 Soap Opera Digest Award for Hottest Male Star (he beat Antonio Sabato Jr. for that award) and being nominated for Lead Actor at the 1993 Daytime Emmys.

What I'm dying to see is the episode where Crazy Edward blows himself up. We know that episode has been digitally transferred, since clips form it were used in Melody's anniversary episode. It's so creepy and gothic, and they cut the clip right before Nikki grabs the urn and throws mommy's ashes all over him, sending him into a psychotic freak out. The clip from the episode in question is at :28.

This is beautiful, thank you! I always found it funny Jill pretty much had a lot of disdain for Jack & Patty during that 1981-84 timeframe.

I hope so.

 

it will be a fascinating treat. However, we have to keep in mind that the episode from 1981 in its original airing was probably 8-9 minutes (!) longer than what CBS will now rebroadcast. So a lot of scenes will end up on the floor of the cutting room...

[All My Shadows]

Ooouuu that 1981 episode will be great to see regardless of what/who all is in it, but my fingers are crossed for Vanessa! Classic Liz Foster would be a nice sight, too.

 

Kudos to whomever decided to pull this one out. I’ll be they had to do some fighting to get it on the air.

[will81]

I'm hoping if these classic episodes get decent ratings, Sony might see the value in getting the back catalogue out there in some way. I'm not going to get my hopes up, but this is a pretty rare opportunity for them to see if there is interest in these older episodes.

Thanks ! I watched the other episodes live but I didn’t with this one so I hope it will be posted soon

If you happen to find it, will you please let me know? I just want to see it in HD 

[alphanguy74]

I hope so, too... I actually hope the ratings go up during this period.

I wonder if we'll see the episode where Victor spanks Nikki to show her who's boss.

This was when Victor moved her onto the ranch on a strictly platonic basis, Nikki was doing her sex kitteen act to break his defences  so he decided a little ass  paddling was in order!

Maybe that tape has been destroyed !!

LOL wtf?! Was it in a tongue-n-cheek kinda way or was it like a 'serious' punishment?

[titan1978]

I absolutely love her talking about just how awful Nikki was, especially as a parent!

 

So funny!
