Members amybrickwallace Posted July 15, 2014 Members Share Posted July 15, 2014 He was a good actor, but he wasn't Adam Carrington. It squicked me out when he and Kathy Beller (Kirby) had kissing scenes!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 15, 2014 Members Share Posted July 15, 2014 I've been re-rewatching Season 1 over the past few days and, once again, I am stunned at how marvelously it's constructed, how well everything fits together. I marvel at all the surprising character connections, the rich, well-developed arcs, the simple beauty of it all. Just gorgeous. By comparison, I'm continuing my Season 5 journey for the first time and, my God, the show just finds new depths of hell to sink into in every turn. Dex and Daniel's putrid undercover missions are done but only to be followed by yet another homoerotic and utterly ridiculous--visually--fight between Blake and Daniel, during which they manage to knock out the pilot and get their plane to crash. Of all the ways to do a crash (including bad weather that the show mentioned just two minutes ago), this is what they do? I guess anything to give Krystle a reason to forgive Blake, following her annual Carrington mansion walk-out, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 15, 2014 Members Share Posted July 15, 2014 LAWD! Jeff spots supposedly dead, amnesiac Fallon in a picture of a rock concert taken by Lady "Dead Is Me" Ashley! The insanity! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted July 16, 2014 Members Share Posted July 16, 2014 I'm guessing this is when Emma Samms had just begun on the show? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 16, 2014 Members Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) No, she hasn't appeared yet. It's towards the end of season 5 and they didn't show her. Edited July 16, 2014 by YRBB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 16, 2014 Members Share Posted July 16, 2014 I spoke too soon! Samms has just appeared, crying, begging the police detective to help her. That's what I'm saying too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted July 16, 2014 Members Share Posted July 16, 2014 Thanks again!! Did ANYONE out there like Emma Samms as Fallon? I did read a "Where Are They Now?" interview in SOD with PSM from 1998 or so, and when shown a picture of Maxwell Caulfield, she was quoted as, "Oh, he's CUTE! Maybe I SHOULD have done the spinoff". LOL Speaking of the character of Fallon, do you all think she really loved Jeff? Or did she just stick with him all that time to produce heirs to the Carrington and Colby fortunes? I'm talking specifically about when PSM was Fallon. Jeff was in love with her all along, despite everything, wasn't he? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cuzIsaySo Posted July 24, 2014 Members Share Posted July 24, 2014 Wasnt PMS' Fallon portrayed to be hellbent on rebelling against her father at any cost (hence why she carried this affair with the limo driver?). If so i guessshe might have given Jeff the impression that she wasnt that into him just because she refused to admit that daddy knew best. (I havent watched Dynasty in so long i am possibly making this up) And this iscoming from someone who thought Emma samms defined the role of Fallon so take it for what its worth 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 24, 2014 Members Share Posted July 24, 2014 Jeff loved Fallon and wanted to be with her from the very first second he appeared on the show. Fallon didn't stay with Jeff, or even marry him, to produce heirs. She exchanged herself for Cecil's helping Blake with his financial problem but I do think she slowly grew to love him. I'm rewatching season 2 so I will get a more definite answer on that soon, in case memory doesn't serve me right. It wasn't about rebelling. Quite the opposite -- she loved Blake so much she sold herself to Cecil Colby for a few million dollars. She had the affair with Michael for the same reason she slept with every member of Blake's football team, among others: She was something of a hedonist. And he was hot, he was there, he wanted her, she was bored... So, ultimately, Jeff got the impression that she wasn't that into him because Fallon really just didn't like him. She found him boring, pathetic, and told him clearly that she only married him for the deal she made with Cecil. Oh, the time I can spend talking about Season 1 Fallon.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted August 30, 2014 Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 I love those old promos!! Heartbeat, of course, starred one past soap star (Kate Mulgrew, RH) and one future soap star (Ben Masters, Passions). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
