Members Soapsuds Posted November 7, 2018 Members Share Posted November 7, 2018 I couldn't recall since the DVDs haven't continued. That was a great cliffhanger! Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 7, 2018 Author Members Share Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) Dynasty finished up its season in early April with the finale ranked 18th with a 16.2/26, first in its time slot at the special time of 9pm leading into the premiere of its 10pm replacement the medical drama Heartbeat .

Members I Am A Swede Posted November 7, 2018 Members Share Posted November 7, 2018 The final Falcon Crest episode of the season saw Richard being (supposedly) killed by Eric Stavros, and Melissa gaining control of Falcon Crest itself through some old deed. The cliffhanger was Angela meeting a mystery man (with a beard) and asking him "Isn't it time Maggie knew you're alive" or something similar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 7, 2018 Members Share Posted November 7, 2018 Thanks! Not that bad a number....the numbers for the last year must have been real bad for the show to be canceled. I find it funny that FC outlasted Dynasty considering FC had much lower ratings on the same season. Ah...thanks.....I think everyone assumed she was talking to Chase. The rumors were that Robert Foxworth was returning the next season but didnt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted November 14, 2018 Members Share Posted November 14, 2018 Yes, with Cosby, Roseanne, and A Different World - I believe it was the first time one studio (Carsey-Werner) had the top 3 shows on television. Roseanne was indeed an instant hit, and was the top show the night it premiered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
