Members amybrickwallace Posted May 2, 2015 Members Share Posted May 2, 2015 I know that it is hard to imagine anyone other than Jane Wyman playing Angela - but if she never was cast in the part, who else do you think could have played Angela? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 2, 2015 Members Share Posted May 2, 2015 I had that same thought too - the only part I wondered about was if she would have been able to do the wry humor as much as Jane did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted May 2, 2015 Members Share Posted May 2, 2015 Jane was excellent as Angela. It's hard to think of anyone else playing that role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 2, 2015 Members Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think so. Remember when she was in "The Lady Eve" with Henry Fonda and she said, "I need him like the axe needs the turkey"? Classic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 2, 2015 Members Share Posted May 2, 2015 Except for Doris Day, any actress from the "golden era" of Hollywood could have made "Angela Channing" her own. Mostly because, the majority of actresses from that period were used to working in high-gloss, emotionally wrought melodramas. (Don't get me wrong, though, Jane Wyman was literally the only thing that kept me interested at all in FC. Well, her and Ana-Alicia.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 3, 2015 Members Share Posted May 3, 2015 Barbara Stanwyck probably would have preferred FC after her experience on The Colbys!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KateW Posted May 23, 2015 Members Share Posted May 23, 2015 This past Monday (May 18) was the 25th anniversary of the series finale of Falcon Crest. I found this clip of the last episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0HFmhBu7_0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members te. Posted June 18, 2015 Members Share Posted June 18, 2015 Stanwyck was originally the one they wanted in the part of Angela - if you watch the original pilot episode it's clear they adjusted the role later to fit Jane Wyman more; in the pilot Angela has gray hair and is interested in horses (which supposedly was written into the character of Angela at that point due to Stanwyck's own interest in horses). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Franko Posted July 6, 2015 Members Share Posted July 6, 2015 Favorite has to be the Ana Alicia, Lorenzo and Jane trio, although that's not a bad photo of Kim Novak. I see Margaret Ladd ticked off the stylist ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted July 17, 2015 Members Share Posted July 17, 2015 Finished watching the first season and I liked it. Angela Channing was hardcore and didn't give a care, which is what I liked about the character. Emma was probably my second favorite character after Angela. When she was dancing by herself outside the window when Chase was throwing a party, I was rolling. I also got a laugh out of her saying things to push Angela's buttons, like "how's tricks?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
