[QUOTE="JROG, post: 121334, member: 43"] [FONT=Arial]This is really interesting. Up until this thread, I never realized Rita Lakin became a writer on DYNASTY. There is more than one Lakin/Pollocks connection beyond the obvious. As the headwriter of the daytime soap THE DOCTORS for a couple years in the late 60s, Lakin was responsible for some really good, mature, psychological soap. Less than two years after she left that show, who should take over? The Pollocks. From what I hear, the Pollocks had plotdriven issues on that show too, although I don't know if they ever reached the lows of DYNASTY (I doubt it). Nearly two decades later, they all ended up on the same show again. Having seen Lakin's previous work, I know they would have immensely benefited from allowing her more say. As this interview makes clear, you can't see her talent onscreen because none of it was allowed, but what could have been....[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
