No more Bandstandmike videos . . .

[jward1108]

I'm so bummed that YT took down the Bandstandmike channel. I was really enjoying watching consecutive episodes of Guiding Light from the 90s, which I missed while working full-time.

Yeah, YouTube took down his channel. Lots of bummed fans right now. I was also enjoying them and was at 1991 just as Josh left Harley. I wish I had discovered his channel sooner (just found it in May). All his hard work...gone.

I was midway through 1994. I wish I had watched more while they were there. This makes me sad.

Same here, I was watching July1994 episodes. I quit watching Another World in 1993 to watch Guiding Light fulltime.Guiding Light was my aunt's favorite soap.

[jward1108]

Yeah, I was watching the July 1994 episodes as they were uploaded. So bummed not to be able to finish that year. Alan hadn't come back from jail as Ron Raines yet. Vanessa hadn't met Matt yet. So much I was looking forward to watching.

Do you know why his account was suspended?

[NuttyAboutSoaps]

He was posting copywritten material that he didn't own,

No one knows the details at this point, but unless P&G plan on releasing some of the episodes on DVD, what in the actual "eff" is their problem? I am so disappointed. Thank you Mike, for your incredible generosity in sharing with those of us who couldn't catch a lot of these episodes originally. Thanks to Mike, I fell in love with Jeva, Manny, Annie,Rick,Vanessa,Billy,Dinah, Harley and Mallet and many other wonderful couples, characters,& stories.

Who was Manny? It also sucks that YouTube charges for movies now. Are there many videos from earlier decades?

[Joluiscute]

Michelle Bauer and Danny Santos

It doesn’t seem like P&G did this. This was all YouTube.

[Joluiscute]

I wonder what could it possibly be? ugh

There is some talk in the Facebook Guiding Light pages, that he was not on the up and up. I guess he had videos he was selling but customers did not get what they paid for.

That sucks if true. I was willing to buy some. Not sure why that would force YouTube to pull his whole channel down though.

It was just his channel YouTube took down. YouTube took down at least one, maybe several channels dedicated to Passions. They have been cracking down lately. They actually removed my video that I had up of my niece's Circus Juventas performance from 8 years ago.

IMDB use to show soaps, but only the current episodes. I have not watched on the site for years.

[Lady Killer]

I managed to find a site that has a bunch of old school soap episodes and stuff so it’s nice that the stuff is still out there

[jward1108]

What site is that?

I had enjoyed 1984 again: Alexandra's debut, Beth/Lujack, and what I'm sure seemed silly at the time, the Dreaming Death story. Now it's relevant, Drs Jeff and Clare battling a strange, deadly disease no one had ever heard of before!

I so enjoyed seeing episodes from 1984 again. The mystery surrounding Tony and Annabelle's cottage was my favorite. Fletcher joined the show and what a wonderful character he was! The devious Miss Piper was fun to watch. Ultimately many cast members ended up in Barbados to solve the mystery! I wish soaps had the resources to do stories like that again. It just seems like there should be a way to watch some of these great old soaps.
