I had it on for a couple minutes yesterday and when Ridge moved in for the kiss I was like - that’s a mannequin.  I didn’t know that’s what they were doing....bottom of the barrel.  
 

it’s pretty bad when I’d rather watch reruns of talk shows.

OK, those Vegas flashbacks were AWFUL.  I have never understood the hype around Thorsten.  Why are people in love with his acting?  I feel like his accent throws people off and they equate him to be this great thespian.  When he was on All My Children, I hate how JHC gave him a pass to do almost anything on camera, including wear those stupid Red Wings jerseys.

He’s so different from Ronn Moss’s version of Ridge. Seeing RM in the classics reminded me of that.  I wish TK would get a nice haircut and shave. 

The Vegas shots were very tacky but they kind of go with the new cheesy and choppy looking love scenes!

The camera work on this show is horrible, and so is the blocking. I understand distancing, but shots look like they’re 10 yards away from each other.

 

Kissing the doll is bad enough — so damn fake — but did they lay off all their wardrobe and hair people, too? No one looks styled or stylish. Liam and Thomas have facial hair that isn’t trimmed.

 

And Quinn is buried in a winter wig that has way too much hair,  bad bangs, and weighs about 20 lbs.

 

This show returned too soon.

It's disgusting. I can't believe what I am seeing. How is this allowed on screen? KKL looked naked all the time, with the strange close ups.  The shows is starting to feel like a very very disturbing soft porn.

    • 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.)?
    • Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.
    • Those Soap Central profiles have a lot of incorrect info. According to SOD summaries and the Daytime Newsletter of the time,Tim left town for a new job and Pam reunited with the father of her baby and also departed Springfield.They did not marry.
