Thanks for sharing!

I wonder what the 1986 ep is. The 1992 episode is the infamous Sheila & Lauren farmhouse fire episode. I know the 2004 ep is when Nikki and Sharon went into the sewers looking for Cameron’s body that Larry told them he dumped down there.

They keep blessing us with 2004 episodes, which was a good year, but still no glimpse of Joan Van Ark’s superior Gloria! I’m hoping to at least fine one of her episodes somehow. 
 

 

She begged for a storyline for years before she left. They used her a bit for Malcolm’s return both with Shemar and Darius in the role. She also interacted with Sofia and Lily over their medical issues, but I think after MAB we never saw her again. From what Victoria Rowell has said, she has a successful film festival and is more involved behind the scenes. I remember when they brought her to B&B and made Justin Barber Dru and Liv’s cousin she tried to parlay that into a regular role but they never used her beyond the guest spot at his wedding to Donna. It’s a shame too because she was great on that show as well.

IMDB's summary of the 12/4/1986 episode: "Jack decides to move back into the family mansion. Brad confides in Traci that Jack issued threats at him. Julia pays Ashley a surprise visit. Ashley's behavior deeply concerns Julia. Paul is having lunch with the mayor when several women recognize the latest centerfold model of "Contemporary Woman". Lauren is still hoping that the whole fiasco will blow over, as Mary confronts an unsuspecting Paul with his nude shots."

I believe I've seen this one online.

I was wondering the same thing lol. I think I have seen part of that 1986 episode on your playlist @YRfan23 with that hilarious scene of the hypocritical church ladies threatening Mary they would ostracize the Williams family...my question is why were the old hags reading the Playgirl-esque magazine anyways?

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
