As Chance and Summer were at Crimson Lights laughing and talking, with Phyllis looking on in the background, a brief “flashback” was shown. I cackled. What must AL think of them putting her in these CGI clips, first the rollercoaster, now this.

 

It was awkward dancing in front of a superimposed CGI background that looked ghastly and absurd.

MS is back to her repeating words tic. I guess I knew it would be back sometime, at least she kept it to a minimum this time.

Sorry, I’m still cackling at that concert snippet.

I've been enjoying the story too for the most part, BUT they've already written her into a corner.

I wish they would have taken more time with the story before revealing who Claire was and had Jordan come to GC and also wiggle her way into the Newmans' lives first while keeping her agenda under wraps for a bit more. I think the story would have had more impact.

Friday December 29
(Thursday December 28 Global-Canada)
Repeat of Episode #7735
originally broadcast on October 13, 2003.
Kevin sets Gina's on fire while Colleen is in the freezer. Ashley holds an empty blanket thinking it's her stillborn baby Robert.

NOTE: Due to CBS sports coverage of NCAA football - the Sun Bowl (Oregon State vs. Notre Dame)...
On Friday December 29, 
the 2003 repeat of Y&R might not air in some areas of the U.S.
or it will air at a different time of day.
In the Pacific Timezone, some stations are airing Y&R at 3pm after the football game.

That's not a bad choice, but doesn't seem to have any relevance to the current story (unless they are bringing Colleen or Robert back to life lol). They showed October 10 during the 2020 classics, when Kevin destroyed Gina's, and I thought it was a shame they didn't show the fire episode, so hoping someone will upload that in HD.

Also in this episode are Sharon hosting a gala at the ranch, Victoria flirting with Michael, Lauren flirting with Raul, Neil and Lily having dinner, Nikki and Bobby Marsino reminiscing about the Bayou. A good episode.

Here's another recap of the same:
original airdate Oct. 10 Canada, Oct. 13 U.S.

This is the blurb that some sites are posting now:
"Victor receives a painful reminder of his past. Nikki and Sharon fight for the spotlight. Brad worries about Ashley. Kevin plays with fire."

What is the painful reminder that Victor receives?

If only they would show 1981 Victor and Nikki’s first Christmas! Way more relevant than a 2003 episode…

Pardon me…?

 I must have blocked that one out. Wasn’t Nina supposed to be Raul’s mom before TC quit? Lauren is definitely supposed to be older than Nina!

    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
    • The transition from Neal to Adam was very abrupt, and to be honest my theory is that the character of Neal was designed so that we think he is super shady but then it turns out that he was on the side of good all along so Neal could have seamlessly become a hero of the BCPD with no need for Adam. I don't know whether Robert Lupone was hired on a short contract or if he was fired from a longer-term contract because they decided they wanted someone who was more of a leading man type, but I can imagine a scenario where Charles Grant did both the undercover Egyptian treasure/flirt with Victoria and the straighter-arrow day to day police investigation. But in my imagined scenario the MJ prostitution plotline probably doesn't exist and instead he probably continues a relationship with Victoria. The story seems very odd to me. I assume that David Canary would have been included only because a plotline where Steve is going to Finland in which only Rachel is seen in actual Finland seems unlikely. The synopses explicitly mention that Alice can't go with Steve but would whoever was playing Alice at that time have had the kind of clout to get the remote cancelled? It also strikes me as unlikely that production would have approved the expensive location shoot and *then* cancelled it only because of jealousy. It seems more likely that they rejected it because of the expense but then the jealousy part got added to the gossip speculatively, possibly because while it was being worked out they justified not including more castmembers because of the expense.
