I started watching with my dad in 1985! He passed in 1989 and I still enjoyed visiting Genora City from time to time. RIP Krisoff St. John.
So sad about yr Dad ...big hugs! 😊
I agree with Eric, soaps have never been given the respect or the admiration they absolutely deserve. I began with Dark Shadows and went from there to all the rest. They have kept me intrigued, exasperated and fascinated my entire life and I am never ashamed to admit I watch them to this day. They transported me into another place at times when in my own life, I was struggling. Those actors & crews will never even know how they saved me because of the incredible hard work they put in every day. And whenever they roll the credits, I pay attention and always watch until they end. It's my way of honoring them.
Dark Shadows ! I remember that
Oh geez, mother used to watch the original Dark Shadows! I didn't like it much, but I remember Barnabus being treated with something to make it so he could go in the daylight and it failed.
Dark Shadows was my first soap! Then the rest followed!
I watched Y&R as a young child every weekday with my grandma during the 80s. She loved her 'stories'. The theme music and the actors will always make me think of her. I love that so many of the characters are still around.
I was born in 1978 so I watched with my mama and she passed in 2004 and I'm STILL watching. Congratulations Y&R at 50! ❤
The elderly neighbors living across the street always tuned in to The Edge of Night at 4:00 every weekday and I would meander my way over to their home around 3:45 to say "hi." Of course they invited me in for milk and cookies but I was really there for the "adult" topics that were truly eye-opening to a 9 year old! This segment brought back those long forgotten moments and a smile on this lovely Sunday morning here in New York City! Thanks!
When I was a college freshman, I scheduled my classes around Y&R. :)
I've been watching Y & R since I'm 10 years old. Here's to 50 more years!
The Young & the Restless celebrating 50 years on CBS, while General Hospital is celebrating 60 years on ABC.
You can really tell that these shows have experienced so much over the years, as well as receiving lots of warmth and appreciation, from fans, all over.
I’m so thankful to see both shows, with incredible milestones, share such fond memories of working together, to make their shows what they are, today.
It was so great to see Jeanne Cooper as Katherine Chancellor again. The show hasn't been quite the same since she passed away.
She was fabulous!
It sure was! My grandma used to love her and Sally Spectra from the B&B. Great actresses and sorely missed.
Growing up, I would visit my grandparents for 2 weeks every summer. My grandmother never missed an episode. So I eventually started watching it with her and got hooked on it. My mom used to say that she liked watching soap operas because it made her feel good knowing that her problems in life were so petty compared to theirs.
We had a friend from our Church, and she admits that she never missed an episode of All My Children, as well as another, who never missed As The World Turns (and still remembered Kennedy being shot, during one of the episodes). As I learned from those two, I thought, “my goodness”, you’ve seen the show unfold before your own eyes, after that many years.
Love The Young and Restless ❤️ , I'm a loyal fan for 40 years. Happy 50 Anniversary. Will always be Young and Restless!!, I love soaps
My love for Y&R started in '84, at the age of 4😂 My aunt who watched over all the cousins in the neighborhood fed us everyday at 12:30, when Y&R came on, and after eating most of us didn't go back outside to play until 1:30, when it went off. Y&R is still part of my day, it makes me feel closer to the women I loved that are no longer here who I watched it with: my mom, my grandmothers, and my aunts.
I started watching when I was 5. Both my grandmas watched this. And back in that day, you didn't have a lot of tvs in the house like you do now.
Katherine and Jill. The best soap diva rivalry ever. Way before Alexis and Krystle.
Absolutely! They set the screen on fire!
I remember watching the first episodes with my mother. I still keep up with it, even if I can't watch it every day.
I started watching it with my mom. Even if I can't watch it like I used to, I know it's always there, and I can jump back in at any time. I love that a lot of actors I love through the years are still there. Everyone at Y&R deserves so much respect and love for all they've given to their audience throughout these years. Wishing even more years to come.
Me too, our mom got my sis n I addicted! Especially those long Summer school breaks. Young & Restless & General Hospital top faves. I think I stopped watching after 15 years, only bc got a little too crazy with actors coming back from the dead and more adultery. But one thing for sure, when I hear the theme song for Y&R it still melts my heart and brings back so much nostalgia of my younger years. Love it till this day.
Wow I'm excited it's still on air for 50 years True it is one of the 4 remaining soap opera in America 🇺🇸👍😎😎😎👍👍
The only original actor is Doug Davidson from the beginning of the show then came Melanie Scott. Sad that Doug was not part of the reunion he was on the show for almost 50 year but they recently stopped writing rolls for him,such a mystery for such a popular character.
I’ve been watching since Day 1 & love it. .
I remember when I was watching during Summer times back. I went to stay at grandparent's house from school when I got sick . They are a lot of great storylines back then now I'm 36 years old now and I'm been watching since. Happy 50th Anniversary to The Young and The Restless.
Mind boggling how these shows are so ever lasting and how legit actresses keep their sanity playing these ridiculous roles for decades
Great theme song though!
Started watching in junior high with my late Mom, still watching 50 years later(Geeze), Happy 50th Y and R, here's to the next 50..
I started watching when it first aired! My best GF turned me on to it, we were in high school! Now 63 years young and still best friends! Still watching our beloved Young and the Restless! Congratulations Y&R ❤🎭❤
Wow I can’t believe that I’m at work teary eyed. I miss my grandmother, a whole lot. She never missed an episode. I’m 48 years old now, but back then U had to watch whatever was on television, or go outside & play somewhere. Hearing the theme music took me back to 49 High St, Elyria Oh. She also loved Falcon Crest, & Dallas. I miss U grandma, & I still love U. 🙏🏿
My grandmother never missed an episode!
i watch with my mom when it first started. She pass and i still watch. love the theme song it reminds me of my mom!!!
I love Mo, he is such a catch ❤😉
…and Victor would most def squash Milton like a bug lol
My friend has been watching with his buddie's, on their lunch hour, for such a long time!!!!! They would huddle around the TV, to watch, every episode!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.....
Some exceptional acting right up there with the big screen !
Been watching since the early 70s and will continue to watch till the end, theirs or mine. I even want the theme song played at my funeral
Loved this show😢
Started watching in 1993 with my mom and nana. I still watch to this day!
What Lauralee said is so true...there’s joy in seeing something carry on that we shared with those that have passed on. Thank you Lauralee! 😇
This was a great story. I know Victor of course. I'm a GH fan but Y&R has a beautiful theme music and Nikki of course.
And GH is celebrating 60! Rock on!
Days will be 60 in 2025.
I started watching in 1988 because i fell in love with Michael Damien
This soap reminds me of my grandmother, she never missed an episode, everytime i was babysat by her as a kid i remember hearing the theme song so much that it gives me nostalgia now just hearing it since she passed away in 2011, still miss her everyday
And don't forget about Y and Rs sister soap The Bold and The Beautiful, another William J and Lee Phillip Bell creation, is still going strong after it's debut March 23 1987. Top storylines featured crossover characters from Y&R such as Sheila Carter ( Kimberlin Brown) and Lauren Fenmore ( Tracey Bregman) 🌞
I can’t figure out why the writing on Y&R is so good and the writing on bold and the beautiful is so damn repetitive.
@@kimberlyenglehardt5770 Seems like the writers have run out of ideas, the show def needs new life blood. And it's never been the same since Susan Flannery, Ronn Moss and Hunter Tylo left 😔
@@kimberlyenglehardt5770 LOL the writing on Y&R is "so good"?
@@Mr21scott haha--in comparison?
I worked at SOD for 14 years,and enjoyed my time with all of the actors, coworkers and everyone I met.,🎉🎈The good ole days.
Congrats Y&R!🎉
I hope Y&R survives for another 50 years.
Mee too! Hope it reach 55 years.
It would also be great if it reaches 60!
@@bonnieriffle8371 Just like General Hospital, this upcoming Friday (while the show itself turns 60, this Saturday).
I know! I can't wait to see that too! 😄👍👍
Mo did a great job in that walk-on role!!
happy 50th anniversary the young and the restless I watch it all the time with my late grandmother
I liked Mr Braden as Dr. Forbin in "Colossus: The Forbin Project". And not only for him but do not forget their other works that could have contributed to them in acquiring their parts on this program. The recurring and special guests that have appeared on it over the years.
As fast as they make the kids grow up on the soaps. Everyone should be 125 yrs old by now. I've never seen it without Victor and Nikki. I do want to say it was fun to watch Jill Foster and Mrs. Chancellor fight - David Hasslehof was on a soap. His name was Snapper
Love Sunday morning! It's such a wonderful start to the week ahead. Thank you, CBS, for putting America in perspective for those who take it for granted.
Nothing is funnier than a soap opera.
my big brother and Mom got me hooked on the show as far back as the 70's. my Jr. high school was a five minute walk from the house and I would come home for lunch while my Mom watched the show..(thirty minutes long at that point) But it was around 92 while at home laid up with a broken leg that I really got hooked on the show due to Victor's disappearance in Kansas when they introduced the Hope character. The most beloved character the show has ever had in my opinion. the 90's in when the show reached it peak. the spell is broken by now. but I still have fond memories of my love for the show....,
It is amazing how they just ignore the absence of Doug Davidson.
I cant believe Victors still on it! Also Nikki. We don't get it here where i live on the other side of the world now.
Also Days of our lives has been cancelled here long ago. I used go on our school run and run in the house to watch.
Great memories of Victor locking up his wife's lover in the basement if i remember ? Mrs Chancellor, Loved her. Great to see this ❤
The public wants to see Y& R stay on the air for a 100 or more years to come .
I’ve watched this show since the beginning…the actors over the years and to this day are fabulous.
Been a fan since 1982.
Love the show and so glad it’s still on the air!
Yeah I watched the young and the restless and the bold and the beautiful whip my grandmother absolutely loved them
Yeah my mom (RIP) she had her daily stories it was young and the restless,all my children,one life to live, and general hospital she would not miss any of them!! My personal favorite is General Hospital!! Loved Luke and Laura story!! But I never knew young in the restless which now should be called “the old and the content”took place in Wisconsin! 🤣
Rip Jeanne Cooper We love You Always
I'm so old I listened to soaps on the radio with my mother. Then tv. But for Young and Restless itself, the roles are reversed. My wasband got hooked because of all the attractive women, when it first started. I talked my Mom into watching it, and we'd talk long distance, when rates were 25 cents a minute, about the characters as if they were real people in our lives. Was very happy when the rates went down 😆
I'm an adult male I've bee no watching 26 years never ever miss a day even in the hospital !!
The concept of the Daytime Drama was forever changed when we were introduced to the intriguing residents of Genoa City on the Young and the Restless. Since premiering in March of 1973 it has gone on to win 11 Emmy Awards for Outstanding Daytime Drama and has been the Top Rated Daytime Drama in the United States for more than 30 consecutive years.
I just zoomed in Michael my baby I love him so much he was so sweet and patient with me he called me an angel 😁😌💖
Victor reminds me of a majestic lion!
Ms Bell finally graces us with a public appearance.
I would rather watch daytime soaps over and over again for the rest of my life than reality tv.
it was cool too when the young and the restless had it class and some wars was need too and seeing how it was need too and seeing bill and others was doing it now , why not seeing how even jack and his step mother and others too,
I cant believe Mrs. Chancellor was not shown or mentioned!
Damn, fifty? I was a 16 year old junior in high school when it debuted. I stopped watching soaps when l discovered talk shows starting with Phil Donahue while serving at my first duty in Florida in 1977.
Alas the two original Y&R families, the Brooks and the Fosters are long forgotten. The only original OG character remaining is Jill (nee Foster) Abbott.
It would have been nice to see the original Jill, Snapper or any of the Brooks daughters.
I was named after leann hunley on days of our lives
Congratulations! Here's to 50 more!
love love the show
Mo needs to return as Milton!
Awesome show and Tremendous with Nadia's Theme Song!
I'm waiting for Victor to kidnap Jack and keep him prisoner in his basement.
Love this soap
Jeanne Cooper was a badass OG.🤘
I only ever think of "Tootsie". That's as close to a soap as I've ever watched.
I was in college 1978-1982 it seemed like in those days everyone was watching either Guiding Light or General Hospital.
I think around that year in 1982, Y&R started to become even more popular than both of those two soaps.
LOVE Mo Rocca. It's just unfortunate that he didn't fact-check one part of this interview. Namely the part where he AND EP Josh Griffith claim that the show NEVER changed its theme song. Um, did 1999-2003 just NEVER happen?!!!!
Congress puts this show to shame. The Old and the Listless
LOL to the last line. 😂
Victor Newman For President!
My mom likes bold and the beautiful she used to watch Y&R too I particularly don’t like soaps but I do like Sharon Case
My mother and I watch General Hospital, and I’m not a heavy soap opera fan, but I still like to ask her what is going on in a certain scene. We do love Maurice Bernard, Laura Wright, Genie Francis, Kirsten Storms, and Kin Shriner.
@@chrisfinch8637 I watched G H with my grandmother--mom NEVER watched soaps
I used to watch it around 1990-1992, when Viktor and Nikki were in it
huh? still are
Wow they showed Paul..
Coronation Street in Britain is older. Coronation Street launched on December 9th 1960, 63 years old and I believe it is the world's longest running soap opera.
Wow🙁
Jill and Ms Chandler
*Chancellor
Also the 50th anniversary of Pyramid too (though that's been off and on and the title's top prize has gone up many times)
Since I only have One Life To Live 😂, I came to Y@R relatively late 😇🤣(see what I did there ?🤗😱😜)
I loved OLTL too, I watched religiously in the early 90s. Great storylines then 🙂
50yearscool
Y&R 70s-90s absolutely GOLDEN! Casting, chemistry, writing, directing, lightning, vibes, flow etc...
Post 2000s uhh...aside from the iconic characters mere presence, kind of unwatchable now, sorry :-/ .
00:23 Too late, their was an update arrangement in the late 1990's/early 2k. But even the original got remixed a bit slightly. check out the openings between the 70's and current versions and their are slight differences.
I remember when Catherine Chandler drove a car off a cliff on purpose and killed her husband who wanted to leave her.
*Katherine Chancellor
The Old and Exhausted
Eric Braden was on Rat patrol
Does anyone have scenes of Jacl and Luan
They had to take it off the air in Jamaica because people were caught up in the lives of the characters instead of doing work and paying bills. On top of school kids, thats all they could talk about.
With Television City gets a makeover, The Young and the Restless will be moving to Sony Pictures Studios.
Just started watch Y&R past 2 yrs always watched Days of our Lives til began bringing people back from death& devil taking over some one life. Not into satanic episodes .So glad found Y&R only so many talk shows can stand watch either.This 50 yrs Anniversary updating old shows makes for fun seeing actresses& actors many yrs younger.Cannot wait see what Victor up to next perhaps demise Diane or not? 2023 & Adam & Nick who gets the girl
