I heard #soapoperas were huge.. and ALOT of work… nothing could be bigger than my “huge episodic shows” I said to myself ….. I had to shoot what one day looks like on @youngandrestlesscbs ! All of these clothes are what works this upcoming episode. Had to share, maybe to share joy and hope, and to all those in this sad climate of no work I get it I feel you I lived it and this is no cake ride… and still just surviving, we all are. I had to share how hard we work.

What I also didn’t know was how amazing this show would be. How special the cast is and how hard working my team is. We do not stop, this train does not stop. These actors do up to 80 pages a day! and also do not stop. I barely know them yet I’m so blown away by each one of them. I’ve never seen a cast learn so many lines.. then again and again. They do fittings again and again… and DO NOT COMPLAIN. Yep… and they’ve been doing this for twenty years or more. Such great role models they are.

I never thought in 30 years I’d be teaching and learning so much and how grateful am I.

And how I get to do what I do best… bring the fire the modern and the aspirational. My body is dead 😆 but heart is happy.

Here we go team…. It all starts again Monday! @youngandrestlesscbs can’t wait for TUES… COSTUMES WILL SHINE (literally) it’s that time of year! 🎉 #youngandtherestless #soaps #soapoperas #costumedesign

Glad to see new energy and enthusiasm at Y&R. Hope she's been told  this is a soap about real people in Wisconsin. I am not up for Sex and the City fashion fantasies.

So much better, and so much more like old-school style.

You know I didn't see that at the shots but when I watched the episode I got what you meant! That ending really felt something out of a movie, very very good!

I mean she could pull that off as long as it's characters like Chelsea and Chloe or Sally and maybe Summer who have a fashionista vein or Connections with the Fashion World

Judging on the reel alone, there is already an upgrade in fashion, after a lot of horrid choices the past year or two. No more pleather pants that are ill-fitted or studded jackets. Everything here looks fabulous, especially the shoes! 😍 I am a gay who loves his shoes!

The shot itself, the post-production, etc. It's all getting there.

Oof—I wonder if there’s a fix for how quoting posts with IG embeds breaks the board.

I haven’t watched the show in weeks but I may just check it out.

@Faulkner - I’d check out today’s US episode just because it’s a bit of a standalone and not focused on moving any of Griffth’s boring stories along. That, and the flashbacks, classic music cues, new Newman Ranch set reveal, etc. You can definitely see why they needed Ed Scott back to help lead production.

Oh, you want to quote a SON post that includes an embedded IG,
but avoid this happening: (Link to issue described on support thread)

Well gosh,  I don't know.

At the top of *this page* of this SON thread,
I posted Mandi Line's costume closet reel instagram post...
and under Mandi's IG reel, I included me typing out the text that's already within her IG, 
(all of that within my same SON board post).

On the fourth post of this page, @Liberty City  quoted my SON post and it worked okay.  At least it seems to be displaying okay.

Perhaps it worked fine because of all the typed text I included in my own SON post.
Perhaps it worked fine because LC posted a great deal of their own commentary words underneath their quoting of my SON post.
So even if something was going to overlap, maybe all the typed text from both of us stretched out LC's post to avoid it?

Or maybe the weird "IG bleeding into following post" is a random thing and we don't know when/how/why it happens.

Does not bleed for me; but, it may also have to do with Invision's own decision to have collapsible quotes (a decision they felt their communities wanted when it never was) to avoid taking space of larger quotes.

The thing is, the "bleeding IG" situation sometimes happens even if the post isn't quoted.  Sometimes the original SON post containing an embedded IG will bleed into next post.

Are you posting the bare URL to embed or the "Embed post"? Because, I don't see bleeding problems. Maybe clear your cache?

I post IGs at SON with the "embed code".  I don't see the bleeding on this page of this thread.  The costume designer's embedded IG isn't bleeding through to the next SON post.

But I have seen the bleeding occur at other times on other SON threads, even recently, as mentioned on the support thread regarding this issue.    But I cannot pinpoint a pattern as to why or when it happens.

It's not a cache issue.  it's a real thing.

I'm on a Windows P.C.
Maybe it just doesn't happen on your device.

It previously happened for me when *reading* SON on my ancient Windows 7 P.C. with old out-of-date browsers.  But not all the time.
Now it happens for me when *reading* SON on my brand new Windows 10 P.C. with current updated browsers.    But not all the time.

We could discuss this further on the support thread.

Back to @Faulkner's question above.
It seems that the costume designer's IG embed works to quote without breaking the SON thread.  Don't know why but it works fine.

Strangely, no writing/producing/directing credits were posted on today’s US episode. I’ll just credit Ed Scott for everything good, lol, since it was a standalone focused on one set and set of characters.

I also noticed that the lighting has been adjusted and gotten a bit darker/richer again. That makes the show look so much better. Again, kudos to Ed Scott for that. 

 

That video was great. Love BTS stuff. Wish they would go into more detail about the decisions made re the set eg why the entrance was switched etc.

As for the Fri episode, I wonder who is behind it. I don't believe Josh has the knowledge to choose specific flashbacks,so who are the go to people that can identify those moments?

Probably Ed and Melody, lol. The whole episode definitely had Ed’s production touch.
