"Knots Landing" always was about a cul-de-sac and a number of couples going through life.
It wasn't always just about that. It started to change and expand around Seasons 4 and 5.
Paige only sponged out the Mackenzies
Well, she started working at Lotus Point pretty soon after arriving. So presumably she was paying her way.
they factually weren´t even a couple (only in the missing years between the last episode and the miniseries).
Well, they felt like a couple. In a pleasingly on-off sort of way.
We fans are a bit too benevolent with this show of ours.
Why do you think that is?
We can beech endlessly about the latter years of "Dallas", "FC" and "Dynasty"
I think there's a lot to love about the latter years of each of those shows.
it seems almost a sin to say anything about the last half of KL.
I've never felt the vibe that on the forum. The opposite, if anything.
And those were crappy years too
I loved Seasons 11 and 13, and 14 once it gets going. 12 is the only one I have a real problem with, but I really enjoyed the first handful of episodes.
Paige and Greg were used to try to win the rivals in the last half of the 80s.
How do you mean?
Sumner Group was born to beat "L.A. Law", not organically.
Possibly, but it felt organic to me. And exciting. The Abby and Ted Melcher period of the Sumner Group -- I just love it.
Claudia was brought because since Donna Mills left, audiences were watching it half-asleep.
I wasn't. The period between Abby and Claudia, i.e., Season 11, is a series highpoint for me.
