Lynne Moody was also the first actress to play Jenny Willis on All In The Family. When they decided to spin off the Jefferson's she was replaced by Berlinda Tolbert. I think Moody said the producers wanted her for the series, but she was already under contract to That's My Mama.

It's been mentioned on the main page, but apparently Amazon and I assume Plex are pulling all free streaming of Knots in the US as soon as 13-14(?) days and pushing it as pay on demand. This is ridiculous to me since they rolled it out with great fanfare what, six months ago? Hopefully it's temporary and pending a remaster a la Dallas, but I'm not holding my breath.

I am going to take steps to secure the rest of the show for my obviously quite leisurely viewing - I've been busy - and I suggest others do the same.

As much as I love KL, I don't intend to pay for any episodes.  Not when WB could allow a FAST streamer such as Pluto TV to continue running them w/ commercials.

I hope you can continue, @Vee.  Reading your analyses has been a real treat.

I will, but I was running the Dallas Dream Season concurrently with S7 when I had to take a break and I'm still several behind on Dallas. I've taken steps to safeguard KL for myself and I'll resume it at some point in the next month or two, I'm sure. Just a lot going on IRL and a lot of stuff to watch, lol.

Hopefully they don't pull it so soon. I would rather only pay for a physical release and I'm not done with my re-watch. 

Something similar happened to me re-watching My Three Sons. They finally added it to Prime and I got through like 4 seasons before they pulled it. That show has almost 400 episodes so you'd think they'd give people some time to work through it.

See, this is why I didn't bother watching KL reruns when they were first available on Plex and Prime.  Because, the Internet giveth, and the Internet taketh away (and then stick it behind a paywall).

    • I love me some Anita and TT. They need to give her a good storyline and I know that it's coming. 
    • @Franko Thanks for tagging me. A few days ago I was talking in another thread about the rise of "snarky" critics for TV shows in the '90s online recaps, but this is just more along the lines of a mauling. There's also the unspoken reality that these were seen as movies for women, so therefore they sucked. Pauline Kael also had her share of blunt, at times incredibly nasty remarks, but the vitriol is often balanced by her love for film. I'm not seeing that here.  With that said, the comment about Field's work becoming unbearable describes how I felt when I tried to sit through her and Maura Tierney on ER. 
    • I skipped most of Daniel too. I think it's awful he has kids with Nicole, Csrky5 and Chloe and Brady, Bo and Philip do not.

    • Today was very focused on Bo and his illness.  I’m liking how everything is ultimately tied together, even though everybody doesn’t know it yet. The EJ connection seems a little sudden and random though. I’m guessing that that was not on Ron’s agenda. And I’m not really sure why any of these rich people couldn’t help the hospital months ago lol  But I really like how the whole sepsis drug thing is being written a lot more realistically than what we’ve grown accustomed to with Dr. Rolf and all of his wonder drugs. They’re definitely putting more of an effort into this storyline. It feels more real.  Philip was a little whiny and self-pitying today, but I also feel like the writing has improved for him as well. He’s coming off less like a villain and more like a tragic hero. I enjoyed his scene with Stephanie and hopefully it means that at some point, we’ll get a revival of Philip/ Stephanie/Alex. Tying it to Stephanie’s novel could be really good. And, the dorkiness of Xander and Sarah was really sweet too. I’m looking forward to their weekend together and what secrets may or may not come out lol 
    • "And I also want to flirt with every woman that comes my way... but then beat up anyone who talks to my wife. BECAUSE I'M A MAAAAAAAAAAAN." Give me a break with your ugly baby paintings... You're in the same category of the hacks that sell paintings with a single dot for thousands or even millions of dollars.

    • I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore. 
    • My favorite moment in SOAPDISH is the HW taking the star to the mall in NJ to improve "morale"!! 
    • Oh no! The shoulder pads! I will mourn them when they're gone. Please tell me the head pieces and hats remained!?
