No lies here. Gimme reruns all day every day of Y&R at this point. What they need to do is fire Griffith, get a replacement working on fixing the show and do a six month time jump. But don't waste our time like Ron did. However, I don't believe they care about 'fixing' the show as they don't see it as broken.

 

I question how far back these 'classics' will go. But I'll take anything truly classic. Heck I'd take anything from 1999-2005/2006 at this point too, was truly great compared to the last ten years (LOL, only half kidding ... but when compared to what's come after? It looks so much better). I have no doubt they remind us of Cassie's death and Phyllis and Nick having an affair. Let's also remind viewers of Diane and Nikki catfighting over The Old Goat's sperm. Yikes.

 

I also question if they dare show some of the better stuff, like how Heather Tom can actually act circles around lethargic Heinle. Or how David Tom still remains the better Billy, despite the mess of his return. Etc. And of course Drucilla Winters and Victoria Rowell. I bet that idiot racist from Sony is glad the demand for her return quickly died. Anywho ... I ramble ...

Aw man, I would have loved to see that entire week....I guess there were some clips posted on YT like The aftermath Of Katherine's facelift where she reunites with Brock, Lorie's return and run in with Nikki, and the Jack/Patty clip, but I would have loved to see that entire week.

Yeah If we can have something nice for a change they'd stay away from any 2006-2020 episodes....I doubt it, but we will see.

Yes that's right. I posted a video of the original airing a while ago.

 

This is super news. If it starts this Friday, I wonder if they're already out of episodes or if they want to space them out.

 

I just really hope they post them online too especially with all the preemptions lately.

 

I hope they show Danny and Christine's wedding, isn't that the only episode missing from that entire month?

Taking bets that some of the Y&R (R) draw more viewers than DAYS when they air. LOL

 

CBS erred not reairing at least one of those massively pre-empted episodes the next day to extend content. Probably going full repeats starting week of April 27 or May 4. Y&R will have been out of production for seven weeks (May 4) at that point. Between pre-emptions and inserting some repeats, I can't imagine they have more than that. It's unlikely they'll start filming again until early June, since the lock downs will likely continue until June 1. 

 

It would be great if it were possible for Y&R/B&B to re-edit a bunch of episodes to present one-week 'classic' story arcs. I'm sure it's difficult for rights issues. Editors can work remotely so I don't think it's much of an issue. That would actually make the episodes worth watching.

Yes! that was from you, and there definitely wasn't any Jack/Patty scenes....

I hope we definitely get more confirmation besides TEB's words, but I also figured they still had plenty of episodes to show until the first week of May or so? I guess they did want to space them out.

They should air 3 new episodes a week and have Thursday/Friday as classic episodes.  Fridays are usually the lowest rated episode, so this would help their weekly average, but not having it count.

      I LOVED HER TOO! She was crazy but great on Desperate Housewives! And that "The Powers That Be" show in which she was John Forsythe's daughter as well! Many people she would've done a great Maris on Frasier too
    • Hey boys, I know these aren’t really thirst traps but I think they belong here. Don’t ya agree?

    • That’s one of the things I’ve liked since the new writers came in; more interactions between characters that they hadn’t really had scenes with 
    • Such a missed opportunity… 
    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
