Viki had to realize that Niki was indeed a part of her; whether or not she wanted to admit it. But eventually she did realize it. And Niki and Viki managed to get along somewhat.
@@travisjames3517 Yeah, the following year after this storyline, the writers did some type of time travel storyline BS, where Vicki goes back to the 1800 or western town or something. I lost interest in the show after that, I was like WTF?!!! Too over the top.
I would love to see Viki be Victor Lord again! She sent chills up my spine when she was Victor. But Tommy also scared me. Jean is just too cool for words. I love Jean!
@@renealexander2703 Rauch was good in being in charge, as some political stuff on actors I didn't like. Personally I preferred Gottlieb and Malone. I did work on the show during both Rauch and Gottlieb's era, among the next couple of EP's afterwards
1969- Niki Smith comes out and ruins the Riley Wedding; She is subdued by a therapist. 1976- Victor Lord is murdered by Tori (offscreen) 1984/85/86- Tina finds out that if Niki comes out, she gets llanfair, so she entices Niki to come out, which subsequently causes divorce. 1987- Viki sees Niki in heaven. 1989- Viki finds ut that in 1964, Niki had a child without viki knowing. 1995- Dorian Lord reveals the molestation; All alters come out. First Tommy. Then Jean, Princess, Niki, Tori,...
Niki first appeared in 1969, during Gillian Spencers time. She walked out before she could marry Joe. The therapists told her she was fine. Seven years later, Viki's personality, Tori, came out and murdered Victor.
I would love to see one the Gillian Spencer Victoria Lord/Niki Smith denditon then I would love to see the COMPLETE Viki/Niki Storyline from78/79 when Marco got mixed up withNiki Smith
I was only around for Viki's SECOND trip to heaven in 2008 and while I knew about this part I've never actually seen it But Watching Viki and Nikki actually being kind to each other and not having Nikki be the cartoon she was turned into... that is AMAZING acting on Erika's part, and it gives me more emotions than I know what to do with or even identify
None of this ever happened because Victor and Irene are alive, and there is still Niki, Tommy, Jean Randolph, Princess, Tori, and the Persona of Victor Lord to deal with.
(continued from above) and victor Lord. Jean kidnaps Dorian. Tori burns Llanfair down and tries to burn the Banner. Victor tries to get Viki to committ suicide.

this aired in 1987! they haven't relesed the best videos yet! 1985-1987 are the golden years. thet du have sum good ones here and there to tease u try these videos the murder of mitch lawrence pt.1-3,mitch lawrence 1985.
But back to the actual clip. Was this a dream sequence? Because if Niki and Vicki had truly made amends so long ago, Niki would have tried to help Vicki when she came out in 2011 around the time of Ryder's custody battle. Right?
So....is Niki wearing gray because she's between Heaven and Hell? Just because I heard and observed the bad guys there wearing black and the good ones wearing white. Do you have other clips? Like from Eternia I think it was called? The underground city?
I think my favorite alter was jean after nikki. Tori was cool too but I dont think she ever came back after 95. I kinda like that viki thanked nikki. Wouldnt it be nice in a way to have someome take over when things go to hell for u. I get it's awful to lose time & not have control but later when the abuse was written in I sorta think it's good to block it out. Who wants to remember that? It would keep me up at night to relive that. So nikki saved viki from that awful experience. She took over that's why she was born. I need to read more about d.i.d but the other alters tommy princess tori jean victor were they born to deal with other things ? Tommy is a raging teenage boy & princess is a little 7 year old. During vikis d.i.d. it seemed tori was in control most of the time. She seemed to hate viki & wanted her to know the truth. It is fascinating about all the alters & that theirs a gate keeper in jean. The tess jess bess wess thing was a farce.
I much prefer this version of Nikki. She was small town in comparison to waspy Vicki but she wasn't a bad person. The 90's version where they got rid of the wig (which is more in-tone with actual DID obviously) was just so trashy and then when it was revealed that Nikki abandoned Jessica at a bar while she was sleeping around just really made Nikki unlikable.
dang she got alot of these she taped them when it comes on what we well my gram use to do put a blank tape in the vcr and time it but how you get it on the computer
Does anyone remember when Niki Smith first "appeared" on OLTL? Was it 1970? 71? Wasn't Viki's father still around at the time? (Maybe Niki sent Mr. Lord to his grave!)
Gross theme song. Lmfao. Much prefer the 2012 version. And the 2013 version is my favorite. But damn, I love Niki and Viki's relationship. I want more of it in the revival.
This was when One Life To Live was at its best. Loved growing up watching this show growing up.
she looks good with long hair
Mallory Lauve Right! 😇
gosh, yes the resemblance is uncanny!!! Niki in her red wig and Natalie today!! Wowser!
Viki had to realize that Niki was indeed a part of her; whether or not she wanted to admit it. But eventually she did realize it. And Niki and Viki managed to get along somewhat.
omg this is AMAZING!! ES is soo pretty playing both Viki and Niki!! now this is what soap operas are supposed to be!!
This was in Spring 1987 during the Golden Era of OLTL.
bigal650 After this the show crashes. Too many sci-fi storylines because this one was a hit.
@@travisjames3517 Yeah, the following year after this storyline, the writers did some type of time travel storyline BS, where Vicki goes back to the 1800 or western town or something. I lost interest in the show after that, I was like WTF?!!! Too over the top.
Which is weird because "baby Jessica" who was born after this was a teenager in the 90s in high school.....
@@MrJuly1990ish , I loved it.
@@MrJuly1990ish , I lost interest in 1994 after Todd Manning became the lead and they broke up Clint and Vicki.
Thanks dereka79! Classic. God she is such a great actress. And Viki looks so beautful here!
I love Viki & Niki, but Niki when she wore the red long haired wig! Erika Slezak deserved an award for this performance!
"What did they do in the operating room? Cut her ears off?" was Niki's reply!
I have always loved Niki.
Not only is the show brilliant here, the awesome background music here accentuated the dramatic flair of the scene.
I would love to see Viki be Victor Lord again! She sent chills up my spine when she was Victor. But Tommy also scared me. Jean is just too cool for words. I love Jean!
All of Viki's alters were idiots.
I loved this arc. Would've loved if they had a deeper arc where she faced every one of her alters on different levels.
You are so welcome! I just love Erika as Viki or Niki or whomever! And she is also so pretty as Niki Smith!
If OLTL was titled BH&H this sure would have been an interesting storyline.
Despite the cheese of this story I loved it then and still do
This Paul Rauch era is my favorite. Even more than Gottlieb and Malone.
Addictive and the show was so suspenseful.
I didn't care for how Paul Rauch treated certain actors, but the show was at it's best when he was in charge.
Mine too. That's when the show was at its best.
@@jacktheman2895 , I didn't like how Gottlieb and Malone treated certain actors.

Erica got it out of the park ! Great job.
I was only around for Viki's SECOND trip to heaven in 2008 and while I knew about this part I've never actually seen it
But Watching Viki and Nikki actually being kind to each other and not having Nikki be the cartoon she was turned into... that is AMAZING acting on Erika's part, and it gives me more emotions than I know what to do with or even identify
oh, and thanks for posting applcinamn! Anymore Viki/Niki from the 80s would be greatly appreciated! Again, thanks!
None of this ever happened because Victor and Irene are alive, and there is still Niki, Tommy, Jean Randolph, Princess, Tori, and the Persona of Victor Lord to deal with.
Thanks so much for the info! It's been so long, I'd forgotten the timeline, especially regarding Victor Lord. thanks again!
Niki wearing grey does make sense ... and did you know that OLTL was originally going to be CALLED _Between Heaven and Hell_? :)
Indeed, that was terrible how they took history and made that Mitch Jess's father! That was absolutely deplorable. Great video, however.
She had a total of 6. Her other alters, besides Niki Smith, are: Jean Randolph, Tori, Tommy, Princess, and Victor Lord.
(continued from above)
and victor Lord. Jean kidnaps Dorian. Tori burns Llanfair down and tries to burn the Banner. Victor tries to get Viki to committ suicide. It is revealed that Tori killed Victor Lord.
2001- Viki fakes her alters to get away from Gina.
2002-Niki comes back and tries to convince Natalie that she has DID and tries to kill Ben.
2005-Niki makes a brief appearance to explain Tess.
2008-Niki helps Tess give birth; Jean help Viki find Jared & Natalie.
2009-Time will tell!
this aired in 1987! they haven't relesed the best videos yet! 1985-1987 are the golden years. thet du have sum good ones here and there to tease u try these videos the murder of mitch lawrence pt.1-3,mitch lawrence 1985.
Actually she came back for a little bit late 2005/ early 2006 during the Tess/Jess storyline...
But back to the actual clip. Was this a dream sequence? Because if Niki and Vicki had truly made amends so long ago, Niki would have tried to help Vicki when she came out in 2011 around the time of Ryder's custody battle. Right?
they should have hugged
She looks really pretty with long hair
So....is Niki wearing gray because she's between Heaven and Hell? Just because I heard and observed the bad guys there wearing black and the good ones wearing white.

I liked Nikki red wig
Aaaa, Viki was dreaming, she was not in heaven for real.
Is there a full version of the OLTL theme song?
The only thing I didn't like is Mitch being Jessica's father. That was a load of bull.

this video is from 1987
i totally agree. i just pretend that whole storyline never existed lol
When was the last time niki appeared on OLTL.
Joe Riley was Viki's Best match😍
Clint Buchanen was a great/best match as well.
@@renealexander2703I was in love with Clint when I was a teenager during this time.❤😂
dang she got alot of these she taped them when it comes on what we well my gram use to do put a blank tape in the vcr and time it but how you get it on the computer
actually I work from home LOL lotta time in front of the old computer
viki looks pretty young how old is the soap anyways? (ive been watching sence i was lil with my mom an my sister :D)

Her "Tori" alter killed Victor Lord
@bigal650 It turns out jessica and Natalie are both Clent's daughters.
@bluenail03 U know shes back! And I'm enjoying every minute of it! Now if they can bring back Tina Lord, I'll be in heaven. UB
@bluenail03 SO niki used to be nicer?
Alex H Yeah...back in the day.
Gross theme song. Lmfao. Much prefer the 2012 version. And the 2013 version is my favorite. But damn, I love Niki and Viki's relationship. I want more of it in the revival.
