Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's
Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's
I apologize to any Kate Vernon/Lorraine fans out there for my last post, but, dear Lord, was I ever glad to see her gone from the show. Aside from Melissa, in fact, I don't think any of Lance's love interests worked.

Fixed, lol?

Ratings from the 1990s
I agree. I've always chalked it up to the fact that DALLAS had been a pop culture phenomenon for many years and that viewers, including viewers who'd stop watching years before, were tuning in one last time to say goodbye. Also agree that it was interesting to see KL finish 27th for the week. Any show doing that well after 12 seasons is a miracle, lol.

For all I care, the boy can parade around in a g-string. It won't make this show suck any less.

Falcon Crest
IIRC, FC reruns aired for awhile on Lifetime, way before the network became the Women in Peril Channel, lol.

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
If I were to do an EON reboot, I think I would start at the beginning, with Mike Karr leaving the police force in order to begin a new career as an attorney, and dealing with his wife, Sara's, crooked family.

Fantastic! Thanks for letting us know, @Soapsuds!

Knots Landing
I agree. Moreover, because KL was community-based rather than family-based, they had the freedom to introduce and to write off characters as needed in order to keep the show fresh. Did losing characters like Abby, Ben and Laura hurt KL in the long run? Absolutely. On the other hand, KL never became as repetitive as DALLAS and DYNASTY, nor did it become as unrecognizable as FC. If anything, I think MP left 90210 in the proverbial dust after awhile, forcing 90210 to get soapier just to maintain some of its' audience.

GH: April 2025 Discussion Thread
On the one hand, I understand all too well how someone like Maurice Benard needs work in order to maintain emotional balance. But, on the other hand, watching him clearly struggle to remember his lines and engage with his scene partners can be nothing short of painful. It literally takes me out of the drama.

Is anyone looking forward to seeing Belle end up with her sister's rapist? Because, God knows, I'm not, lol.

Knots Landing
No surprise that the ten lowest-rated episodes all would come from the last two seasons. As much as I see S14 as a return to form after the disastrous previous season, I do admit that KL itself was spent by that point.

The same was true for Phil and Tara, Chuck and Donna and Cliff and Nina.

And poor Michael Dietz, having to fill Rick Hearst's shoes as Alan-Michael on GL. Talk about being set up for failure.

Yeah, I still can't believe Kit Fisher really happened either, lol. I think even I did an episode of "Silk Stalkings" once, lol.

Murder, She Wrote
I think the first two movies, "South by Southwest" and "A Story to Die For," were okay. The third movie, "The Last Free Man," is fine, once you get past the premise (Jessica's ancestor solves a murder in the Old South) and the "white savior" trope. "The Celtic Riddle," however, just feels like every other episode where Jessica travels to Ireland (or, as I collectively call those shows, "Jessie McGill and the Little People").

It's incredible to me that Michael Dietz and Paige Rowland have a daughter who's about to graduate from college. Time doesn't just fly, ladies and gentlemen, it moves at the speed at light.

Texas! Discussion Thread
I agree with @jmgaw as well. TEXAS was doomed from the start; and in the long run, it hurt AW and NBCD more than helped.
