Doesn't look like the Lisa mind games are going to plan lol

i used to have more of this story somewhere. tis a classic

I was reading an online convo between soap fans this week, and they were saying the promo stuff they'd do in the 90s was tame compared to the 80s.

After seeing this dude in a cage with a borderline BDSM bass in his voice telling her "face it, you want to have me" I'm starting to see where they were coming from.

lmao true

i would say the soaps pushed the envelope more in the 80s in some respects

YAS!!!!🙌🏻 I saw this and I’m like “you go boy!”

Time to review the gaps.

I hope you captured Sharon’s shenanigans. I think she’s one of very few characters who has slept with all men in the same family (Victor, Nick and Adam). :shudders:


im not sure that there is much early sharon/nick on youtube but ill find out if/when i get there

Well the YR consistency with eps that can be found online wont even out some until April 89 unfortunately, but here is some of the Caged Climax

Brad has come down with a major fever while stuck in a cage. This fever caused Lisa to let Brad out of the cage. Lisa goes to the store to get drugs for him. Brad took the opportunity to call a cab to try and leave, but he passed out from the fever. However, Lauren (who is meeting Jack for a ski trip) ends up at the same store as Lisa. What will Lauren’s suspicions of Lisa cause?

Jesus.

When the music hits just as she says “... why are you dressed?”

Got a chill down my spine

lmao honestly some great scenes. She makes the story imo because she plays it so well

I feel bad for him getting locked in the cage with Lauren, who turns out to be useless.

- Loses her calm at the first sign of danger

- Takes up all the air just when they need it the most

- Condescends to Lisa with redundant questions everyone already knows the answer to, only hardening Lisa’s resolve even more

lmao yeah she really wasnt any help at all. Nothing but total panic and air sucking

Good thing Jack managed to get there on time to save them from dying, but ol Lisa got away unfound...

if anything I think the final scenes morally justify Lisa (folds arms).

Lisa holding a gun and Lauren treating her like an idiot "omg what are you doing to do with that?"

She was right all along. They MADE her do this.

-

Lauren: "I just don't believe Brad would leave like this."

tiz (raises hand): "I do."


lmao Yeah I can see that. Lauren really does have a way of bringing that out of people too.

Also you were right about the terminator music. I wish I had them so I could use those music cues for the online survival competition series lol

The sexual tension between Paul and Cassandra ...*interest piqued*

The smokey musky voice of Katherine....those claws disguised as manicured nails *remembers fondly*

Jill and Michael---who is clearly taken---discuss their sexual tension and his broken heart *sips tea while fast forwarding....* no one cares.

The awkward dancing style of Paul and Brittany *looks away*

Victor eats the same slice of cake for an entire episode ....*not sure if that means it's good or bad, but now craving cake*

Finds out that Paul and Cassandra have a secret romance...... *intrigued* Why can't Cassandra tell George?

Nina meets Katherine for tea .....*did Nina study Buddhism while she was away?*

"The end of time" clearly comes sooner than Paul thinks because I don't believe Cassandra ever becomes the future Mrs. Williams. Or does she?

I haven't met George, but this doctor and the Y&R sound effect makes me give two sh*ts about this poor bastard.

P.S. Y&R has the best sounds effects and Jill is one of fav home wreckers.

I gotta say as far as the 80s go, it’s Y & R and Santa Barbara for me.

The others are good at times but these two shows just have that something.

Nina doesnt think Katherine, Jill or Rex will ever be convinced that she has changed. Brad, WHO IS LOCKED IN A CAGE by Lisa who is obsessed with him, was not able to escape. His frustration with his situation escalates. Tracy discusses with the Abbott family that he is gonna go ahead with the divorce with Brad who is nowhere to be found. Tracy's news delights Jack. Jack and Lauren discuss Brad's whereabouts thinking he left Tracy for Lisa because Lisa inherited money. Scott gives Jessica Abbott a check up. Is Jessica going to get the bad news she is expecting with her health deteriorating? Will Brad messing with Lisa's head help his situation or make it worse?



Locked in a cage?! Lol, I def have to come back to this episode.

I think there have been a total of three cage incidents on this show. I won't say who in case you plan to post it. This will make the fourth if I am correct.

Well this is after the cage story unfortunately. Nothing will be that intriguing again for awhile.



February 15 1989

Rex thinks Katherine’s feelings towards Nina dating Phillip have softened, but Jill has come to visit Rex. How will Jill react to Phillip and Nina getting close? Danny has good news for Christine about Nina and Phillip. Christine has good news of her own because she is convinced she and Scott have the same father. Nikki and Victor bond over their children, but Leanne, who is now with Victor, is writing a biography for him (mostly out of guilt because her and Jack secretly wrote the book called “Ruthless” trashing Victor). What shocking news does Nikki have for Victor and Leanne?







February 16 1989

Leanne and Victor are forced to try and fix their marriage after Nikki’s announcement. Christine is deadest on learning who her father is, and if she and Scott share a father. Jack has David trying to get all the goods on Jill so he can come up with a plan to oust her out of Jabot. Can Ashley get some answers out of Victor about what is happening between him and his wives?

Did Indianapolis survive the January thaw?

Why is Bradley more upset that Lisa took advantage of his feelings and avoided sex oppose to being locked in a cage? Is he really that sensitive or playing the worst psychological mind game ever? *Lisa clearly knows it's the latter. I'm sure psycho sex is probably fantastic, but yeah.... *

If Lisa knows Bradley doesn't want her a**, why does she have him locked in a cage if she plans to "cut him out of her life" anyway? The torture seems pointless, unless she's a Scorpio.

*Why was Rex threatening Clint?*

Danny Romalotti!!!! *I never noticed that his voice is actually softer than Crickets*.

*Cricket is horrible at setting up "double dates"*

*Phillip needs a clue. And some support for his delusion*

*Gina must make a killer lasagna if she can afford to let Clint live in her apartment for free*.

*Sort of wish Lisa will knock Bradley out so we don't have to hear his weak attempts at seducing her anymore* "Imagine it Lisa....Imagine it"....Lol.

January 11 1989

Scott and Christine connect. Jessica is stressed with her deteriorating health due to AIDS. Lauren isn’t buying the story on Brad’s disappearance which she and Jack discuss over lunch. Brad is still working on a way out of the cage, but does Lisa still have his number?



*like*

Did Indianapolis viewers find out what's it like to live downtown?

*What happened on the double date with Danny, Nina and Phillip?*

*Does Bradley secretly have skills at cracking locks that we don't know about?...I guess he has to try*

*"I think you're going to have to die" sounds noncommittal. Not so sure she is a Scorpio after all*

*John and Jessica are more polite and have more class than most. And how the hell did this random woman find out about her health condition?*

*Jack and John have a good relationship despite Jack's accidental slide into Jill puntang years ago*

*Lisa's lightening quick response, coming up with one of the worst explanation I've heard in my life gave me life*. They're in the cabin so he won't kill anyone LOL!!!!

Yeah, this show had some serious insidious crazies like Sheila. You’re still in early 1980s...way before my time. I believe you’re around my age group so this is before your time too.

This.

One of the best villians on Y&R.

Was there anyone crazier than her on Y&R? Victor is ruthless but Sheila was a straight criminal and looking to kill people.

I had to ask my sister. There have been a few. Most of this is before I started watching this show, but I stream some of the old episodes. From what I can remember from best to worst:

Victor Newman (but we all love him).

Sheila Carter

Rose Deville*

David Kimble

Patty Williams

David Chow

Michael Baldwin (before prison)

Phyllis Summer (before losing custody of Daniel Jr.)

Daisy Carter

Tom Fisher

*I don't know who Rose is, but my sister says she was as bad as Sheila.

It crazy tho that the show has Lisa return to be obsessed with Brad and lock him in a cage. Then a year later, David starts to become more and more of a criminal. Then Sheila comes to town and really shows her true colors. Then Michael goes to his lengths. All within 4 years of each other lol. But I think its the best time period of the show.

I never liked Michael though. Or his brother. Or that entire family. Thats when the show went to shit in the mid 2000s imo

Phyllis is a badass. She’s my fav but even she’s not Sheila bad. Daisy Carter and Tom Fisher were both assholes. I completely forgot about Tom and his abusive ways with Kevin.

I don’t know who David Kimble and chow is...that’s before my birth. LOL. Let’s not forget Gloria and her gold digging ways with John.
