- This is normally not the stuff I post. But I’m at a point where I feel I should post whatever I want on my socials.
Backstory: I grew up watching The Young and the Restless as a kid thanks to my mom and my grandparents. As a teenager, I became a regular viewer and recorded the show and watched it when I came home from school.
In my downtime, when I wasn’t catching up on the show’s actual run, I was sifting through old CZcams videos of the show’s heyday. I learned a great deal about the show’s history during the 1970’s, 80s and 90s.
I became absolutely enthralled with the first Jill Foster Abbott, Brenda Dickson. Unlike Jess Walton’s Jill who I watched growing up, Brenda’s Jill was opulent, melodramatic and campy. Clearly getting her acting chops from either shows like Dynasty, drag queens or both. She was a perfect addition to the show. Nailing deadpan one-liners, throwing out quips and insults to her nemesis, Katherine Chancellor, and sneaking her way up to the top where she wanted to be all along.
Brenda’s Jill was intriguing to watch and made me wish I existed during a time when she was on the show regularly. She was much more exciting, humorous and bitchy than Jess’ Jill.
But thanks to the advent of CZcams, many clips have surfaced of her run on Y&R. I thought it’d be hilarious to gather up most of these videos and pull the best lines and Brenda-isms to create this rather delightful video.
Of course, if any of the original uploaders would like me to take this down, I will be more than happy to! It’s not my intention to steal, just to showcase my favorite soap opera character and actress of all time!
I might start making these more often if I can. Perhaps next tackling Jamie Lynn Bauer as Lorie Brooks, who was also as dramatic and could even be as campy as Brenda as well!
Now, this is the Jill Foster that I’ll always remember. 🌟She was a terror to Mrs Chancellor.😊
I miss Brenda as Jill still in 2023. Thank god for these old clips. And miss Terry Lester as Jack.
Wow the best most vicious Jill to Kay line ever: “Tell me Kay, when are you finally gonna die? When the government finds a safe place to bury your liver, I suppose.” THANKS for posting this!!!
Straight to the punch. She always knew how to twist the proverbial knife!
My God that is some line!!! I love it!!
She had some great one liners."What were you going to do!? Water the tree with it!.
she was the most vicious Jill 😂 love Brenda Dickson ❤
Oh my word.. LOLOLOLOLOLOL Brenda Dickson is the only Jill Abbott LOL!!! She is not only drop dead gorgeous but, my word.. she is a phenomenal actor!!! LOLOL Those 1 zingers are the best -- Why Kay, you are looking worse than usual... LOLOL..
3:06 "I'm carrying John's bay-beee"
😂
That unicorn 🦄 was worth alotta 💰
Well 😂 IM SICK OF EYYUT!
That was the biggest mistake Y&R ever made firing Brenda I can't understand why nobody else would ever hire her.....What a waste
She was blackballed…..
She's a terrible actress.
@@allmc2008 Terribly wonderful!
She got into some trouble & I think she served time behind bars.
The three actresses who have played Jill the longest, Brenda, Deborah, and Jess have all brought their own unique style in playing the role. They each made Jill their own. All three have been fun to watch. 😊😊
"when the government finally finds a place to bury your liver?" I fell down
Brenda should be part of the 50th anniversary
She was just the absolute BEST Jill Foster Abbott.
She surely was!
I did like Brenda's Jill but the end of era she was so over the top at times. I love Jess's Jill I will admit it's because Jeanne's chemistry with both actress was apparent .
Always hated her high and mighty attitude. JESS WALTON IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍 👍👍👍👍👍
All the Jill's in my opinion were different
I REALLY liked her I was sorry to see her GO
I actually remember when Brenda's Jill was nice.
70s Jill and 80s Jill are two completely different people for sure! I’d love to find more scenes of Brenda in the 70s bc I know she had some interesting storylines after the Phillip era
@@TylerMusicBoiDo you have Brenda's last episode and Jess' first episode?
G O L D
I was just a kid when these scenes originally aired (born in February of 1973) and to hear my Mom tell it, Jill was an evil woman who deserved every bad thing that came her way. Watching the key scenes now between Katherine and Jill's relationship timeline, I realize Katherine was just as much (maybe even moreso) to blame for their feud. TeamJillFoster here.
I loved their rivalry better than any other.
Their jabs at each other were as good as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford at their top form.
OMG now I see how well Deven nailed it with Brendad!!!!!
1:11 Note the whistle at the end of "romanssssse" 👀
ABSOLUTELY nailed it!!! I miss Devin doing her Brenda impressions but Brenda was quite relentless in how she was against it and I’m almost certain she attempted to escalate the situation and sue her. Regardless, Brenda wasn’t happy and it’s perhaps the reason those videos are sometimes hard to find online. Really unfortunate
Simply the best!
The only Jill Foster Abbott
Two things: Remember when soaps had promos?
YAAAASSSS!!! to Kate Roberts.
Brenda's entire acting approach changed from her first stint to her second stint. While everyone gushes over the campy '80s version with her overannunciated lines, I much preferred the more subtle approach from the '70s. I know the writers, producers and directors pushed her toward the camp, but geez ...
Jess Walton is a good JILL, but she doesn’t hold the sexuality that is needed to play JILL!
Yeah she would make Jill her own but in the process, the sex appeal was mostly shed off sadly
Absolutely correct
I like Jess Walton, but she was never Jill to me. Miss Brenda is Jill!
Brenda was on before my time. But I love the clips of her as Jill and I can say that Jess was never as cutthroat or vindictive and also as dramatic as Brenda was. When she first came onboard, Jess mimicked Brenda a lot but eventually made Jill her own. Still, Brenda is incomparable for sure.
@@TylerMusicBoi think of her as a sexier, less scattered brain, and more beautiful Phyllis.
@Tyler Talks! Jess Walton gave an interview with Soap Opera Digest and said that when she took over the role of Jill. The writers wrote her with Brenda's rhythm. You definitely can tell, and at the beginning of Jess's start, she was playing Brenda, not Jill. As the 90s entered. She started making Jill her own, because Jess version of Jill was more of a shrew. Jill had the comedy to her and the business savy and the sexualness, but something was missing from Jess' version of Jill that Brenda brought to life as Jill.
Kay Alden who wrote the show said both ladies brought the essence of who Jill Abbott was.
She would be great in Gilded Age on HBO
12-30-23 THE BIGGEST MISTAKE THE BELL FAMILY EVER MADE WAS THE WAY THEY COVERED UP THE MISTREATMENT OF BRENDA DICKSON. WORD TO THE WANNA BE WISE “BRING BACK BRENDA DICKSON AS JILL
3:40 - is that Lauren Koslow? (Kate from Days of our Lives?) really does look like her. Damn I would have loved to see those 2 act together more.
I loved her as Jill so much more than Jesse Walton. Jesse Walton is too good to be a vicious person
I thought all the jills were good but I prefer Brenda
she and terry made the show -- honorable mention to the obvious few others
I miss Brenda Dickson, she was fine, sexy & good looking.
Deslushunsh of romansche.
I love Barbara Dickinson!
Brenda Dickson!
@@davidbrunson3219 Who is that? I meant Barbara Dickerson.
hey i know this is so random on this video but what was the channel americas sweet hearts all about? Im mildly obsessed with everyone on there and i need to know the lore! how did the channel start?? where is everyone now?? i have so many questions pls
Lol that channel was started up by a few of my old online friends from tumblr that eventually became my friends on Facebook. We all had a mutual love for Courtney Love so we decided to try to start a channel and just be these kids talking about our lives while also talking about our favorite music with an emphasis on Courtney. Unfortunately something happened and it didn’t carry on like we wanted it to. We all drifted apart and our music tastes changed a lot. I still love Courtney but I’ve since expanded my taste a bit. I still have a couple of the girls on my social media and see their posts on occasion. But other than that, it was something that had a lot of great potential but never really got its foot in the door
@@TylerMusicBoi Thank you so much for responding!! Its so nice to finally have some insight on how it started and how you're doing now. I agree that the channel could of taken off I know i really enjoy it all these years later!
had doing like or love of Brenda Dickson as Jill Foster Abbott i like the 2 the one more now,
hahaha,Mrs Foster was soo hardworking and a nice lady,
and Jill didn't want to spend her life slaving in Mrs Chancellors factory,like her mother,and cha$ed after men with money money money,
Man #1 was Katherines hu$band Phillip Chancellor,and so began the longest feud,Loved It !!
(Background music) "I'll never forgive the Bells for firing Brenda" ... Haha,great to see these scenes again🤓👍
Well, hello!
Who was the lady Jill dumped the drink on at 3:45?
Lindsay Wells. She was the woman who had the incriminating photos of Jill and Jack’s affair and blackmailed her
@@TylerMusicBoi thanks!
@novelasdomundo4621
I Think it was Lindsay Wells who sold the photos to Katherine
Jill Foster Abbott, based af.
When I was in high school I had a chrush on her, she's got a certain sexiness about her❤
I think she was blacklisted but wish it could have worked out for her she still should be in young and the restless she still looks good. I heard Paul rauch from one life to live wanted to hire her for a seductress role but I think powers that be vetoed the idea because of previous boss bill bell ! Who was very powerful
But Liz wasnt really her mother. Right?
Actually turns out Kay is. What a hoot!😂
Well, she ain't very nice ☹
Where is Dickson now?
Who gives a damn
On social media
She’s still around, mostly being a pseudo socialite on social media. Unfortunately some of her posts are quite… weird? She’s also a trump supporter now, still has a lot of nasty things to say about various people from her past. I don’t really check up on her that much but from what I’ve seen, she’s not very interesting these days. Y&R was basically her peak
@Tyler Talks! I follow her on IG and she responds to questions about her time on YR.
BDick is now in her own mini mausoleum in Century City, not the Chancellor mausoleum in Genoa City.
Jill was awful 😂🤣😆
Truly awful 😂
Video hay, hấp dẫn quá bạn ơi, chúc bạn luôn thành công, đồng hành cùng bạn
God, she was divine. She’s the only Jill Foster Abbott.
