Knots Landing Mini Maration

So like Falcon Crest, I finished the second season of Knots Landing in one go, Michelle was at a co-workers making oreo truffles for their employee appreciation week. 

I watched Episodes 11-18

Here is what happened:  Val has cancer and Gary freaks out to Miss Ellie over the phone, so she sends Bobby to help.  Eric saves Ginger's sister who smoked some pot laces with some other drug she is in a coma, and when Ginger's mother comes, she tells him that he will either be a hero or the one who killed her, he was the one to bring the pot to the party, I don't remember why he was the one who had to carry it.  Abby's ex comes back and wants the kids, he wants to get back with Abby, who has no interest in him anymore, it looks like Richard and Laura are back together, though Richard is suspecting that something is going on with Laura and her boss Scooter.  Anyway in the last episode Abby's ex has kidnapped the kids.  Val goes to her writing class and has a sub, it's Earl Trent, the husband of Judy, who Gary was having an affair with.  He is completely rude to her in class then finds her in the library and convinces her that he wants to help her get her story published in the school paper, Gary tells her to stay away from him.  She goes to he apartment to work on the story and he locks her in and wants them to get back at Gary for what he did.  Val handles it.  The women of the cul-de-sac are held hostage, and Ginger almost loses her baby because of the stress, she and Kenny are back together.  Sid is working on his engine with Linda, and Abby tells Karen that she needs to watch out since she is in love with Sid, Karen doesn't believe her, and invites Linda over for dinner, since Sid's nephew is in town.  It's an awkward dinner, and when the nephew asks her to go out with him she leaves.  Sid and Karen have a fight and Sid goes to the garage and Linda is there, they go test drive the car that has the engine in it and get stranded in the desert, she comes on to him, but he turns her down.
When JR is in town he gets Abby to show him the designs of Sid's engine, Karen wants to look at them that day and can't find them, Abby gets them back in time before Sid notices they are gone and, he is convinces that Karen just didn't know where to look.  She works for a day at the office when Abby has the day off to find out something about her kids, and Karen begins to suspect that something is going on and that Abby and Gary up to something.  The FBI start poking around and Sid looks at the books and confronts Gary, who admits everything, when Abby arrives she denies everything and says that she was just doing what Gary told her, the only one who is buying any of her story is Sid, Karen believes Gary that she was a part of it and Richard who was with Karen when she went looking for evidence seems not to buy her story either.  Val is so mad at Gary she won't talk to him.  Gary goes to the FBI and they say he will be fine if he cooperates with them, Sid wants to be involved so they set up a meeting with the guys that are selling the stolen parts.  Someone at the dealership tampers with the brakes of Sid's car and when he and one of the FBI leave, they crash over a cliff, leaving up with a cliffhanger of an ending.

UPDATE!! Falcon Crest mini marathon

So it's been a long time, since I've updated, and honestly even longer since I've watched any of the shows, since the move to the new house, my schedule has been all screwed up, not to mention all the great new shows that have started.  Anyway, I decided that I would have to do things a little differently, since it was so hard for me to totally recap the shows, it honestly too me almost double the episodes length to watch it, so I wouldn't miss anything I was writing down, and another hour at least to type it all down here.  And since I found a new hobby that is perfect to do while watching TV, cross-stitching.  I decided that I would just enjoy the shows, and write a synopsis of what happened with my thoughts about what happened, we'll see how this goes. 

So I had Friday off since I was asked to work on Saturday, and I decided that it would be a perfect time to start watching Falcon Crest again, since it was the last show I watched before my "break"  and since I finally managed to get the entire series!!!  So excited about this!  I watched while I was cross-stitching the last of 3 of the same project I've been working on. 
  1. The Namesake (November 19, 1982)
  2. Choices (November 26, 1982)
  3. The Vigil (December 3, 1982)
  4. Confrontations (December 10, 1982)
  5. United We Stand... (December 17, 1982)
  6. ...Divided We Fall (December 31, 1982)
  7. Pas De Deux (January 7, 1983)
  8. Above Suspicion (January 14, 1983)
  9. Broken Promises (January 21, 1983)
  10. Deliberate Disclosure (January 28, 1983)
  11. Love, Honor and Obey (February 4, 1983)
  12. Separate Hearts (February 11, 1983)
  13. The Odyssey (February 18, 1983)
These episodes dealt with Cole, and the murder of Carlo Agretti, Maggie finishing her script, going to Hollywood, and almost having an affair, to finding out that Richard and Chase are brothers, and that his adopted father had something to do with Nazi's.  So Cole has been cleared but that doesn't stop the police from hounding him, and people of the town still thinking that he did it, even if the evidence cleared him, it was proven that a right handed person hit Carlo and Cole is left handed, if this show was on today, this probably wouldn't still be an issue, someone tried to kill Cole and make it seem like suicide.  Maggie finally finished her script and went to Hollywood to give it to the producer, (I forgot his name).  I don't know if my copy was missing a few scene, because once she is looking for an agent to the next moment she is calling Chase telling him that she has to stay and do rewrites because the movie is being made.  So this leads to her going to the producers house to work on the script because the hotel had complaints about her typing all night.  The walls must be very thin there I can only imagine what else there are complaints about.  So once there the producer tries to seduce her, which he almost succeeds but Maggie leaves and goes back home.  Chase's mother comes back to help him with proving Angela has been taking money from the vineyard and using it to buy the New Globes stocks.  She tells Chase to work with Richard, since it's Angela that he should be fighting.  Jacqueline admits to them that Richard is her so, and at the founder's day party at Angela's house Richard tells everyone that she is his mother.  Now Angela wants to find out why Jacqueline abandoned her baby and goes to France where she meets with the nun who ran the orphanage, she tells her that Denault dealt with the Nazis.  Through all this we also saw Melissa having a son, who almost died, Richard bringing the doctor who saved him, Melissa and Richard almost getting together, then publishing the news that Lance isn't the father but Cole is (Lance took the baby and had a paternity test done.)  Now Lance and Melissa seem to be together, working to get Falcon Crest.  Maggie doesn't want Chase to continue his investigation into the murder of Carlo and has moved out.  Vicky is having an affair with an married man, Nick Hogan, who works with Chase, who is now getting a divorce, and now Vicky has left home to move in with him.

Next time I'll have some pictures to go along with my post and include a cross stitch pattern I created for Dynasty.

   At ColbyCo, Alexis is with Cecil’s secretary, she is telling her how she felt about Cecil.  Fallon walks in and tells her mother that she just heard about Cecil.  Alexis goes off on her for not thinking of her, when her baby was found.  She tells her that not to bother coming to the funeral, she knows that she is only here with her support since Alexis might be coming into some money.  Fallon leaves but turns back and tells her mother that she can feel her concern, is she in Cecil’s will or was she written out.
   Blake comes home early and is out riding, he gets off when he finds Krystle, by the pond.  They walk back to the house, and she tells him that she understands why Fallon wants to work.  She tells him that it isn’t easy for Fallon to be his daughter.  She tells him that she is asking for something that he needs.  Blake tells her that she is doing this just to cut Jeff out of her life.  Krystle says that maybe with the hard work at the hotel, Fallon will learn to appreciate Jeff and the baby more.  He tells her about Michael coming to see him.

   Fallon goes up to Krystle’s room and asks her if Jeanette can continue to take care of the baby till they can find someone else.  Krystle says that it’s fine if Jeanette is okay with it.  Fallon thinks that she is judging her for not taking care of her baby herself.  Krystle tells her that she isn’t judging her she just would do things differently if she were lucky enough to have a baby.  She tells her that she is on her side and told Blake to give her a chance, and that if she doesn’t like what she has to say she can leave since it was Fallon who came to talk to her not the other way around..

   Alexis walks into the office, the secretary asks her if she knows how many people are coming.  Alexis tells her that she doesn’t the lawyer made all the arrangements.  Krystle walks in and Alexis asks her what she is doing there, she tells her that she and Blake were invited by Cecil.  Alexis tells her that she thinks that she was after Cecil and when he turned her down since she wasn’t his type she moved on to Blake.  She asks her if she thinks she made Cecil marry her.  The lawyer is reading the will and Alexis is left his house and the apartment, and half the business, the other half is left to Jeff and his son.  He goes on to the further instructions and plays the tape of Blake threatening to get Rhinewood.  Blake asks how it got here, the lawyer reads further and it’s revealed that Cecil was Logan Rhinewood, and that Alexis will continue his fight to bring Blake down.  After everyone leaves Blake confronts her, asking her if she was in on the whole Rhinewood thing, she tells him that she knew nothing about it.  He tells her that he will fight her for the rest of his life and she won’t get her hands on Denver Carrington.  On the way to the elevator Jeff tells Blake that can’t believe that Cecil was behind the assassination attempt on Blake.
   Alexis asks Cecil how she is supposed to get Blake she turns and sees Michael, she asks him how long he had been standing there, he tells her not long.  She asks him who he is, he tells her that he is Michael Torrance, she tells him to leave, he asks her is she wants to know why he came to see her.  He shows her the rattle; she asks him where he got it.  He tells her that he got it from an old woman claiming to be his grandmother.  Alexis asks why he didn’t contact her before, he tells her that he didn’t know where to find her, and then when he did, he wanted to wait till after the funeral.  He tells her about what the old woman told him about the day she took him from the baby carriage.  He tells her that he went to see Blake, and he threw him out, and expects her to do the same.  He tells her that he will be at the hotel for one more day, and he tells her that it was more than he expected to see his beautiful mother.  After he leaves she picks up the rattle and asks if it really is Adam.  
Final Thoughts:  I think Blake made a mistake rejecting Michael/Adam, Alexis is going to use him to get Blake and I can already tell that his is a jerk.  And wait till he realizes that he was flirting with his sister, yuck.  I’m glad that Cecil is gone, he didn’t bring anything to the show and I’m sure Alexis will find someone else soon.
Best Outfit:  Why not just have the red shirt and skirt, why must she have the red boots?

Final Thoughts:  I feel kind of let down by the ending, only because it wasn’t a big reveal in front of everyone, but I liked it.  I kind of suspected Kristin more once Jock and Miss Ellie found the gun, it had to be someone with access to the house.  When I realized that the 30th anniversary of this episode was on Wednesday I couldn’t believe how lucky I got to be able to watch it on the exact date, if I hadn’t stopped watching the shows since the move to the new house then I wouldn’t have gotten to do it.
On Saturday afternoon I was on IMDB looking something up about the Doctor Who episode we were watching, when I saw the news about Larry Hagman’s death.  I was shocked and honestly a little sad to hear the news, especially when I read what Patrick Duffy had to say about him.  I read that he and Linda Gray were both by his side.  It is amazing how close they were, I don’t think it is that common with many actors on TV shows.  I’m so glad that they got to reunite for the new series one last time, and that the original show is still available for us all to enjoy.
Best Outfit:  It's the suspenders again, this wouldn't be as bad, if it wasn't for the pattern on the shirt with the patterned suspenders.
