JR returns was a test for a revival of the show, but guess ratings weren't high enough.  Only positive of that movie was Cliff finally letting go of his vendetta against the Ewings and making a life with Afton.

I also loved season 7 theme though you can't hear much of it here because of the voice over.

Interesting how season 8 of Dallas has the same drum beat as Knots.

I like how Jerrold Immel, who wrote the them for both, paid tribute to Dallas with the early versions of the KL theme, ending both with the same five staccato notes.

Sandy Dvore said that after he finished the painting used for those two seasons, he threw it in the trash. The woman he was dating at the time said she liked it so he dug it out of the trash and presented it to the Knots producers and the rest is history.

He was also upset that Y&R no longer credited him for his title design. He did all of the charcoal drawings in the early days and he created the YR logo. Notice the similarity of his YR and the way he scripted Knots Landing in the opening titles.

Can't believe he didn't think it was any good. Glad his gf saw it.

I knew he did both designs and yes Knots had that YR feel those two years. Do you recall when YR stopped crediting him for the logo? What is when they went to the red flowing background?

I think you are right, he said something about tuning in one day and his logo was all in red. It may have been sooner, I just watched ‘98 credits and he is not there.

    • I don't think he ever gained much traction on GH. He should have stayed with The Doctors. Was Mark just a toned-down version of Nick? Were they basically the same character?
    • All I can think of is if a lot of big names were leaving around that time she wanted him back as a stopgap, although I have never seen any real evidence that he was popular with GH viewers.
    • I loved watching Shanice hand Leslie her ass and finally shutting her up. It was so good. I also love Martin & Smitty's family.  Anita has to have some sort of plan giving Leslie the tickets to mail for Winterfest. She has to be setting her up for a fall. It's pretty obvious to me Vernon is not cheating with Sharon. I think Sharon is helping him with his terrible singing voice for Winterfest. I still believe Bill & Dani are endgame but I love Dani & Andre too. I am definitely enjoying this story. And making Hayley a black widow is a nice twist.
    • Sorry for the spam. Wasn't sure where to put this, it's from Tony Geary's husband's IG. Tony watching Genie and Maurice on Mo's show.
    • This show is really trundling along BTW. When is someone going to show up to slit Beastmaster's throat or crack the whip on metrosexual Sidwell? (BTW, openly presenting this cheery bon vivant as casually bisexual would at least be something vaguely diverting.) At least kill Brennan by year's end. I'm bored.
    • She told Vanessa to "DOUBLE her offer" on the Jarvis house.  The Jarvis family accepted the doubled price.  Assuming the house has an appraised value of $2,000,000, she's theoretically paid the Jarvis family $4,000,000 for the house.  The bank would loan Leslie 80% of the appraised value ($1,600,000), and Leslie had to pay the balance with cash at closing --- $2,200,000.  She only had ONE million.  Where the hell did she get the rest?!  And now she's got contractors working on the house all day & half the night.  Who's paying THEM?  I keep thinking all this will crash around her.  Either that or the writers have absolutely no idea the limits of a million dollars.  Sounds like a "lot of money", but it obviously ain't when we look at Leslie's spending since she got that million dollar check in August.

    • Vernon is an idiot. Why would he have Sharon in the same hotel that Leslie is staying at?
    • Yes, that out of the blue return was odd. Maybe GG found a forgotten clause in the contract he signed when he was wooed to ABC and they were forced to take him back! Like George Reinholt he talked about the contract that promised him primetime roles. But it was loaded in the networks favor. I think it was Gloria Loring that re-signed at Days on the promise of primetime opportunities, but that was all it was- she was put up for guest spots and TV movies but not necessarily guaranteed that she get the role.
    • I still am baffled by why Monty brought back stunt hire Gerald Gordon in the early '80s out of nowhere for like a year. I haven't found anyone who can come up with a thing he did in that second stint of note.
