[QUOTE="Zable, post: 108206, member: 47"] I’ve forgotten, was there any character appearing on The Colbys who mentioned Fallon as being thought of as dead? It’s not been in my head that Fallon of The Colbys was a resurrected character for the purposes of the series. I’d thought Fallon of The Colbys played simply as a missing-for-sometime Carrington heiress who had amnesia, not one whose family had given her a burial with all the drama of an uncorked Jeff. ….When Fallon of TC regained her memory, she didn’t remember some things exactly as you’d expect Fallon of Dynasty to have. There was no physical reason for her ‘distorted’ memories, only that there might be gaps as she started to regain her memories. If TC the series didn't exist, but Fallon returned to continue her story with Jeff, I’d be happy with a plausible enough explanation to account for how she was alive, but I’d want her story details to match the story of Fallon of Dynasty before her disappearance, re people and events. Like, if she’s gonna talk about jewellery Jeff gave her, the details should match. Or, if they’re gonna reveal in flashback what she’d done with her wedding dress the night she vanished, let it match how we’d last seen it. Stuff like that. ....I’d want her family to be truly aghast that they’d buried someone else as her, and I’d want them to spend time piecing together who it was and how that came about. Especially if their returning Fallon was amnestic too. … And, who knows, returning Fallon could eventually turn out to be a Wes Parmalee sort, but not before making family trouble for Adam. I liked that The Colbys had that angle to Fallon's story. And thought it sucked it wasn't followed up on Dynasty. [/QUOTE]
