Members DemetriKane Posted July 8, 2023 Members Share Posted July 8, 2023 I loved Kenny and Ginger's pad. I thought it fit them well; and I actually stole some ideas for my first apartment lbvs. Yes, I had some bean bags too! That's true. They do mirror each other. Ha! That was a great arc for them. I happen to always liked them on the show. Ginger was a goldmine sitting on ready, and they could have gotten a lot more outta Kenny if they only pretend they cared to write for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 8, 2023 Members Share Posted July 8, 2023 I'm hoping we get news soon about the HD remaster being completed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted July 9, 2023 Members Share Posted July 9, 2023 Yep, I've also wondered if the original treatment that Jacobs presented to CBS only initially had the Fairgate, Avery and Ward households and that he just tacked on the Ewings when CBS wanted to spin off Dallas. I think they early on tried to do slightly "youth" focused storylines with the Wards, but I think because they couldn't really fully separate Ewings / Wards by an age difference (the Wards being obviously in their 20s still) it just never quite worked out for them since Ewings just inherited the "young married couple" thing (despite Val and Gary being in their early to mid-30s but don't tell Joan Van Ark that). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted July 9, 2023 Members Share Posted July 9, 2023 David Jacobs said Joan asked "How old is she supposed to be" ? ......LOL Joan said she saw the first 5 episodes of Dallas when it aired and loved it. So she would have known that Lucy was a teen when she agreed to take the role. Joan was born in 1943 and would have been 35 in 1978. Her daughter Vanessa was born in 1969. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted July 10, 2023 Members Share Posted July 10, 2023 Maybe Kenny and Ginger would have lasted longer if they had a more loving marriage? A better contrast to the Ewings as newlyweds and the troubles of the Avery and Ewing households, and the family squabbles of the Fairgates. A really passionate, deeply in love pair of younger characters getting to experience all those marriage firsts might have worked out better in the long run. Although I think Kenny would have to be recast for that. To me they just kind of drift along until they are gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1974mdp Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 It seems like everything is on streaming these days....except Knots Landing. Does anyone know what the hold up might be? Is it a rights issue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 It's coming out in HD soon via streaming. Just like Dallas did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1974mdp Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 That would be awesome! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 I’ll take what I can get, but I hope they do a complete series Blu-ray for both series. Streaming has proven to be so unreliable so I’d much rather have a physical copy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 Licensing and profit, etc. Dallas is a bigger pull than Knots at the end of the day. If Dallas' debut, in HD (and 16:9) is a success on Max, Warner Bros. will likely plan on Knots for 2024/2025. There was discussion of a remaster, but nothing set in stone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted July 17, 2023 Members Share Posted July 17, 2023 I want the blu rays as well. I bought the entire series of Dallas from iTunes and could not be happier. I'm going to do the same with Knots when it becomes available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted July 18, 2023 Members Share Posted July 18, 2023 The person on the Dallas forum who was involved in the Dallas remaster said the Knots remaster is already ongoing. I believe WB is going to remaster their entire back catalog, but we’ve gotten hints that like Dallas, something is coming imminently for Knots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 18, 2023 Webmaster Share Posted July 18, 2023 When I made my first comment about this, that's what I was hearing. I didn't want to be specific because things can take time, and we could be waiting until 2025 or later before it becomes available. But ultimately, I was told a deal was finally made to make the show available. What I don't know is where or when. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
