Y&R to air classic episodes


Recommended Posts

It's kind of disappointing. It's a repeat after all and it was posted online. If they reair it again it's taking away an episode from us. It's not like that one is so great that it must air on TV.

 

I actually like next week's picks, except for the 2019.

 

@mikelyons I uploaded the last 4 classics in the vault https://bit.ly/2A3Bnhv created by @ChickenNuggetz92 along with a bunch of episodes from 1999 (the "I Will Crush You" week). Hoping more people will post stuff there. You don't need an account to do so and you can open the link in incognito mode.

 

The B&B vault seems to be far more active than the Y&R. Sadly I just noticed BobTV who was posting a ton of soaps on YT (used to be genoacityguy) got his account terminated. I wish I knew how to get in touch with him. This is the worst YT has been in a while and the vault provides a good backup.

Regarding episode 7150 (Shick fantasy tent date) from June 7, 2001:
The USA national preemption on June 9th was for George Floyd's funeral which was more like a national event.  

 

Normally, Y&R posts something on twitter (and sometimes facebook) when when there is a preemption, explaining the situation.  However all Y&R and B&B social media went completely silent on June 1st, except for retweeting/reposting the official CBS  Black Lives Matter support statement.  Other than prepared weekly promos, there was nothing from B&B and Y&R social media for two weeks. Just silence. I had no idea that the epi had been preempted in the USA because I watched it on Global.

 

Episode 7150 did get uploaded to cbs.com, and some viewed it there, but .... apparently it has been taken down since then?

 

Regarding episode Episode 6673 from July 19, 1999 (Camryn's Emmy win), which was planned to air on Fri. June 26, 2020 in USA:
I know there were interruptions due to Pence's coronavirus update. but was the episode "officially" preempted?
This time Y&R social media accounts were active. However there was nothing from Y&R social media about any preemption. But Y&R spent that entire day posting fifty gazillion things on their social media accounts about the 2020 Emmy awards show which was airing that night.
I'm not a soap insider so I don't know how to determine what an official preemption is.

The classic for Wednesday was fantastic! The 94-96 period is the one I’ve seen the least of so I love a chance to see these episodes, despite Paul and Christine being the most boring part. The actresses playing Luan and Mai were great and especially Mai I think it’s a shame she wasn’t utilized more. From what I know I don’t think she ever got a love interest. Now in addition to wanting Keemo to return, I’d love for him to bring Mai along with him.

Global has episode #11720

for CBS to air on from July 10, 2020

 

IMDB has wrong date/episode number correlations for 2019 and 2020.

The correct date/episode correlation for this one is:
#11720 from July 3, 2019

Devon and Elena go to the carnival as their first official date. (Devon says their attempted date at the grand opening of "Society" restaurant doesn't count because that was the night that Neil died).  Victor is ill and Victoria is running the business, but Nikki catches Victor looking at some paperwork, so she pulls him away to spend time having fun at the carnival.

(The rest of the episode is Adam/Phyllis, Nick/Chelsea and Chelsea's husband Calvin. And a whiny drunk Summer.). Ugh.

Edit to add: the carnival scenes are only a few minutes of the epi.

There are several other old videos of Vanessa in this playlist...

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFukuXXHudGghHE5rSrID_sKlkqaYuWYw

...one showing a very brief clip of her spying on Lance (John McCook) and Lorie through a 2-way mirror from the other room.  I had forgotten how crazy and diabolical she would be.

When did soaps stop making friendships (like Nina/Cricket) a priority? There are so few friendships on soaps, aside from people like Jason and Carly on GH and unexpected treats like Lani and Kristen on DAYS?

 

A lot of black folks in today’s 1996 opening: Neil, Dru, Malcolm, Olivia, and Adam Lazarre-White’s Nathan.

This Paul/Christine week has been truly great all around! So many important characters showcased throughout the week, so many classic soap conventions that were destroyed or just avoided over the last 15-20 years, etc.

 

I know Paul/Christine have a reputation for being a bore, but coming in as a very casual Y&R viewer, this wedding is one of the most beautifully shot I’ve ever seen, and their impromptu vows were pure soap romance. All of it made even better by the room full of important characters there to witness it along with the small moments like Nina/Christine and Paul/Mary leading up to it.

 

Olivia is a classic soap heroine in every way, and it’s sickening bc she should be 30 years deep into drama on the show’s current canvas. She should be the matriarch that AMC made Angie at the end and online.

Of course Shemar just happened to be changing clothes on this episode. I swear every week during Shemar's first three years, there was a scene of him either working out without a shirt on or changing clothes

    • Perhaps. But would anyone have wanted The Doctors to turn into what General Hospital ultimately became?  Dear God in Heaven...
    • Thanks @EricMontreal22 that must be one of the last issues. Probably the best soap magazine.
    • I can definitely see that airing the same week as The Love Boat colliding with an iceberg and sinking while crossing the North Atlantic on the Titanic anniversary with a “Who lives and dies?!” Promo next to Mr Belvedere being blackmailed over his wanted fugitive status back in the UK

        Agree with you both. I am also going assume that while Hotel may had some big numbers the first 2 seasons BUT the demographics weren’t great. Reason I say this is I distinctly remember my parents watching St Elsewhere and/or The Equalizer after Dynasty.    I still don’t get Hotel’s designation as a primetime soap opera either lol. ABC should have aired Paper Dolls in the 10/9 slot on Wednesdays in the fall of 1984 to give that show some more legs.    Obviously ABC was eyeing a double bill night in the same vein as Dallas & Falcon Crest and that might have worked better than leaving Paper Dolls to the wolves in an untested timeslot.
    • I tend to stay out of EP discussions, simply because I rarely know who EPs when. And they all have their good and bad sides. But how are we supposed to judge JFP on anything other than what we see? I didn't know she was a director or a music director. (and unlike say, Chris Goutman, I never saw her credited as anything other than an EP) Specifically in the matter of casting Crampton, she took credit for it (or at Crampton gave her credit for it, whatever) and it was arguably, one of the worst recasts of the '90's (and either as bad or worse than the actress she fired).  She lost two important actresses in '92 and still decided to kill Maureen.  She had a wildly uneven tenure at GL. It's no wonder she's polarizing. But it kind of proves a point--great soap is always a that rare combination of everything clicking at the same time.  And believe me, if I could bring myself to watch her male successors who were responsible for bringing back Reva and allowing her to eat the show again, or hiring Hunt Block, or being too chicken to stand up to stans who and hamstrung the show with boring couples stuck in the same repetitive stories (Vanessa/Matt, Chelle/Danny or Richard/Cassie, take your pick) not to mention San CristoHELL....I'd be more than happy to roast them on open spits. I guess we end up talking about JFP because she's in a period we can nominally agree was one of the last "best" periods of the show.
    • A degree does not make one an expert at their job, it just shows that you can follow directions from a technical standpoint.  It doesn't mean that they're creative. JFP was all about the look of a show without considering that technical beauty can only carry a show so far if there is nothing interesting to go along with it.  Equality means calling out flaws equally in both genders. 
    • NBC or P&G was even fool enough to take a full page ad for two consecutive weeks in TV Guide promoting this horrible storyline.

    • JFP has had more defense for her decades of terrible producing than many male producers ever had.
    • It makes sense that she got a degree in directing. I've always said she should have been a director. I think she works better at the technical aspects of the show. I think her problem is the emotion/heart of a show.  She always guts the heart of the show she's on and she makes decisions that stop longtime viewers from watching a show. I don't think it's sexism to call that out especially as I've said similar things about Conboy. I've called out Rauch for much worse. 
    • "Aunt Blanche" first appears toward the end of this episode, about 57 minutes in.
