Y&R to air classic episodes


Recommended Posts

In late 2003/early 2004 Danny came back to town and the show actually trying out a retro Paul/Lauren/Danny/Christine quad before having Lauren moving on with Michael while Paul and Christine reconciled again for awhile there. Danny left town with his tail between his legs. The reason why Paul & Christine had

separated was they finally addressed the 2002 rape and decided to take a break.

So many vets were on plus past vets. The episode was good but overall the storylines got absurd. Kay being Jill's mother to name one. The episode originally only got a 4.4 HH rating.

Lol still a million and full HH point more than it’s closest competitors! Days was in the middle of Melaswen, GL had just brought back Dinah Marler as the Kriezman era kicked off, ATWT was in the middle of the baby Cabot drama, Jack “dying” and Doc Reese sleeping his way through town. 
 

That said, the excuse for Katherine drinking again was flimsy at over a change of furniture and curtains if I recall right. And yeah Y&R’s stories weren’t all that hot either; tomorrow we’ll see Cameron Kristen.

Does CBS2 in NYC feel like the classic episodes won’t rate? I can understand keeping Cuomo on. However, Gov. Murphy’s press conference was ongoing, preempting the last few minutes of Y&R and B&B, yet they broke out of it just now for a new episode of The Talk.

The Talk is low rated. I'm surprised CBS hasn't canceled it.

 

Our governor's press conferences are during our local news if not they are after the soaps are over. We don't have as many press conferences as NYC though.

You can also tell they edited the heck out of these classic episodes. 

 

But it was great seeing Victoria Rowell as Drucilla as always. Phyllis stayed lying when it came to Christine and Danny. I love how it was left out she was an obsessive fan girl who drugged Danny to make him think they slept together.

On Monday, May 4, Nikki visits Newman Ranch for the first time as Victor tests their chemistry with help from Colonel Douglas Austin (Michael Evans). The episode originally aired Oct. 31, 1981.

On Tuesday, May 5, Nikki dreams of reuniting with Victor after Ashley (Eileen Davidson) is out of the picture, and Phillip (Thom Bierdz) makes plans for a future with Cricket (Lauralee Bell). The episode originally aired August 17, 1987.


Then on Wednesday, May 6, Nikki takes center stage at the Colonnade Room, Drucilla (Victoria Rowell) finds herself in trouble, and Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) distracts Scott (Peter Barton) from Lauren (Tracey Bregman). The episode originally aired June 2, 1990.

On Thursday, May 7, Victor and Nikki cannot deny their attraction, Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon’s (Sharon Case) marriage is on the rocks, and Katherine (Jeanne Cooper) interferes in Jill’s (Jess Walton) relationship with Keith Dennison (Granville Van Dusen).

After Shaughnesy left as EP and Jack Smith started throwing his weight and ego around the show went into decline. Too many years at B&B perhaps? 
 

 

Kevin being beaten up in jail and then starting his release/redemption story. Also Gloria(Joan Van Ark) had arrived into

town.

 

We also found out Cameron was still alive, working with Grace to get revenge on Sharon. The body in the sewers Nikki & Sharon found that Warton later moved was that of Cassie’s biological father who had just resurfaced the previous year. 

 

Jabot was still reeling from Victor’s sabatoge and thus was reliant on bailouts from Diane and well, Victor himself thus why Jack had to leave Jabot.

 

Nikki and Bobby got close while Brittany was running around town as Nikki 2.0 Then Nikki remembered she had killed Bobby’s brother as a child by accident.

    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
    • Angry Dante was hot; sorry, but I'm not going to pretend it wasn't awesome seeing Dominic Zamprogna act his ass off in a way that was not crying.
    • Thanks, interesting and so believable (no Lonatrat or Clones...)Instead of the Lewis family he should have made the Oil family Granger...even if the audience didn't remember that one off character it would have been interesting to tie it into the fictional GL world.
    • Dante needs stick removed from his butt
    • When you bring up what I like to call "Shapiro's Folly" you think Dano's acting choices mattered? I ask because I don't think so. As far as I could tell almost universally the ABC fans hated the very idea of her being on all 4 shows! And, BTW, the headwriters also hated it, at least according to comments made by Passanante. But, it is not hard to imagine that they'd feel that way. And, I agreed. If she wanted success she should have planted "Rae" on one & given up her idea of branding, or whatever it was that she was after.  
    • Okay, well her reasons were that she had a mandate to reduce the size of the cast & she had another mandate to make the cast overall younger, so her reason for picking Donna to off was because she was too old.  So, is that what you understand? Or are you thinking of something else? Which if so, I would be delighted to hear about it!  She had arbitrarily picked 50 as the age people needed to be younger than.  And, that is why she got rid of both Bridget & Spencer Harrison.  And, getting rid of Bridget was another of her horrible ideas.  Why do you refer to her as the Face of the Show? Don't feel bad. I am a major Cass fan & I don't remember him with Donna either, LOL! Can we say forgettable? And, yes, Lila was the most last minute of last minutes!!!! 
    • This is AWESOME, thank you for taking the time to post this! My first thought: My memory is a lot better than I thought it was, LOL! The first episode I clearly remember watching had a scene of Ed confronting Holly about Christina's paternity. He lamented how wonderful things had been over Christmas, so looks like I started watching the show early 1976. The only thing puzzling me is where is Evie? I thought she was around BEFORE Rita got involved with Tim, but maybe that's one gap in my memory. It makes Rita look slightly better--in that case, she didn't seduce Tim knowing her sister had a crush on him.
    • Oh, well.  At least he can cry into his hoodie.
