Wow! I'm looking forward to this. The channel has been great at uploading full seasons but none of them have been from the show's late 80's / early 90's "imperial phase" so far, so season one is a welcome addition.

I watched it back then. I remember I was always close to quitting. It took years to become a good soap.
I might check this out, because I'm curious if the way characters talk on B&B has changed since then. Nowadays it's terrible to not only listen to these repetitive dialogues, but also how slowly and unreal they talk.

I’m really looking forward to this as well, as I didn’t start watching til the early 90s. It will be nice to go back and watch a lot of scenes I’m sure I’ve never seen before.

Oh I am over the moon about this! I had bought about 5 of those DVD sets from the the first season, but all together they only covered about 100 episodes I think. I loved the episodes but it was so expensive to buy the sets and they would take up so much space etc. It wouldn't have been possible to continue.
If they upload an episode a day that's perfect. I can watch it as if it was originally airing and with no expense. Although it would take a about 3 months to get up to where I have already watched. I am sure I would watch again from the start anyway, especially at half hour episodes. If they would so the same thing for The Young & The Restless I would consider quitting my job and living on benefits and gaining that 100lbs.

Honestly, if they did this for DAYS I'd never leave home.
I'm guessing they'll continue beyond season 1 since they have seasons 19-31 (2005-2018) uploaded in full.

"Remember The First Thorne"
Wow! I mean, not because I want to watch it but this is the first time I read about official uploads.

I had never heard of it either, but presumably they started uploading them 2017-ish. I guess it's passed a lot of people by because they haven't gone for the classic years and started with 2005 back then.

The first Thorn is just gorgeous! I can't wait to see more of him. And the Forrester's had a pool back then so plenty of time to ogle young Thorn and Ridge in all their semi-dressed fineness.

Apparently around 2005 is when the show started to become unwatchable and the same A to B nonsense. I tried a few years back to watch the current episodes when they started airing daily on YouTube but it was painful. It was so dull and felt like the same thing happened over and over. I have always wanted the chance t watch the the 1980s to mid '90s episodes of the show. Hopefully they are a success and gain views and they keep doing it. I had noticed some people already commenting about the video quality in clips. However I must say that the DVDs I bought had pretty stunning picture quality for an '80s daytime soap shot on tape. It looked great, hopefully the uploaded episodes will reflect that.
People were doing the most over the quality and there is only so much you can do with 30+ year old video.

The better quality video is a fringe benefit of their being "official" downloads, since they're probably taken from master tapes and "cleaned up" when needed.
Thorne #1 makes me think of Nautica and Tommy Hilfiger models of the period---aloof, preppy, Ivy-League types. Even his name (Clayton Norcross) just screams 'Long Island Lockjaw'. But if you wanted contrast between the brothers, this certainly was the quickest way to achieve it.
And if The Soap Gods were to offer Another World from the late-1970s to 1999, I'd take root to my couch.
