Fallon's funeral.
Ruined by Jeff.
Fallon's funeral.
Actually, it stood out because of Jeff's outburst. He was in pain. In another episode shortly after, he had to have that talk with LB, at the top of the stairs I think.
What do you need for heart-rending moments?
Sorry but I don't see it. It's not like Alexis would slap Krystle in the face for telling her the good news, this is about the good news and yet it showed how different these women are.Rare moment of tenderness between Krystle and Alexis
I'm sorry but the actor didn't do a very good job with this, neither did Jack Coleman when he tried to poop out a tear - and the others barely reacted to Jeff's outburst which is exactly what would have made that scene so spectacular.Actually, it stood out because of Jeff's outburst. He was in pain
I think it totally depends on the acting. That's why a moment is a moment, and not a story. And that's why I felt sorry for Alexis when her wicked plan didn't work out, eventhough it didn't make sense to feel that way, story-wise.Well, first of all a good back story, a good lead up and for it all to make some sort of logic sense
to get that news from Krystle creates an awkward situation not to mention a missed opportunity because it wasn't Blake who played the night visitor.

And all this time I thought you were a spontaneous personI need a proper crescendo I guess
Rare moment of tenderness between Krystle and Alexis
"A natural phoney-ness" -- haaa!Sorry but I don't see it. It's not like Alexis would slap Krystle in the face for telling her the good news, this is about the good news and yet it showed how different these women are.
Alexis has a natural phoney-ness when it comes to kind feelings she is supposed to display and it seemed to me that Blake and Fallon were the only ones who sensed that.
Now I'm sure she's happy that Steven is still alive, but to get that news from Krystle creates an awkward situation not to mention a missed opportunity because it wasn't Blake who played the night visitor.
"I want you and Adam to be there" / "Oh we will, of course we will".
The score at the end of the scene (Alexis' apartment score, I believe) adds a mood to the scene that doesn't quite befit the topic of the conversation and to me it seems to underline the different vibes coming from these characters.

The S.A.D. and other things caused a bad performance from JJ --- everything had been so frozen for a couple of years by this point that it couldn't work. And the lack of reaction from other, as you say, resulted in a tantrumus interruptus.Willie Oleson said:I'm sorry but the actor didn't do a very good job with this, neither did Jack Coleman when he tried to poop out a tear - and the others barely reacted to Jeff's outburst which is exactly what would have made that scene so spectacular.
Although I rather liked Linda's minimalism, at least in her case. She credibly blinked back tears without affectation.Willie Oleson said:John Forsythe looks as if he performs at gunpoint and Linda Evans cries because she's just standing there. If only they had showed that these characters were holding back their feelings for the sake of appearances.
Joan Collins' performance looks relatively dignified, with just enough 1950s melodrama.

Is true! The official word* for it hasn't been invented yet because no-one ever thought that it could exist."A natural phoney-ness" -- haaa!
It's fine with me, but I think Alexis would have preferred to get that news from Blake, and not her nemesis.I do like, though, that Krystle was the night visitor.
I like that better for the scene itself, but this situation doesn't last forever. Steven comes back and Blake is going to be fine too. What reason does Fallon then have to behave friendly towards Krystle?and that way her relationship with Fallon could become a touch-and-go kind step-by-step improvement thingy.
Credible pacing.I like that better for the scene itself, but this situation doesn't last forever. Steven comes back and Blake is going to be fine too. What reason does Fallon then have to behave friendly towards Krystle?
How many more episodes, or seasons? What would be the starting point, because that's what this is.Credible pacing.
I dunno. Just more.How many more episodes, or seasons
But one scene is not enough.Willie Oleson said:What would be the starting point, because that's what this is.
It takes a lot of energy to dislike someone who's never hurt you, of course I'll always prefer the bitchy Fallon but I don't think she had the energy that her mother had.
Yes.Willie Oleson said:I also would have preferred this to be the beginning of a reconciliation, and to see how Fallon would try to adjust to her new feelings, or to be more precisely, feelings she no longer has i.e. she still wants to dislike her stepmother but she just can't and eventually she realizes that it takes less effort to just relax and treat Krystle like the decent human being she is.
But I still say they did it too fast. The only change I want in that scene is Krystle not going back into the room from the hall.Willie Oleson said:But they decided to put all this in one scene, the angle being that she realizes that Krystle isn't a phoney gold digger and that she really really loves Blake.
