[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 86380, member: 8"] Yes, and... Describing an off-screen important event in such detail, makes it sound like hilarious fan-fiction, or one of those horrible-death-stories from WILL & GRACE's bartender Smitty. I always love to see soap characters being burdened with a secret, it's frustration at its best. Hm, I could believe/pretend to believe that Alexis was (one of the) richest woman in the country eventhough Dynasty never excelled in business storylines to support that idea. As for Knots Landing, I thought it was a bit unnecessary to make Galveston Industries [I]so[/I] big and important, since it wasn't the kind of show that would focus on the 1% of the 1% (whatever that means). It didn't bother me, it just felt a bit wasted on a soap that wasn't a Family Saga. Ironically, I found the whole Empire Valley story easy to accept, or maybe I [I]wanted[/I] it so that Galveston Industries had something to show for. There was nothing shocking about the idea that Greg would simply walk away from it all in one of the later seasons (13? 14?), well, of course he also didn't have it when he was a struggling politician - and in fact, GI was kind of an un-birthright. LOL. Sure makes me wonder how much other irrelevant yet funny stuff has gone unnoticed. What a heartless bastard! [/QUOTE]
