    I also remember her as 'Dottie West' on 'Big Dreams & Broken Hearts. It was in the 90's, I have it on, yes, VHS, and I still watch it from time to time. She was great in that role.

    I loved the Val's babies story line as well. It was so brilliantly crafted and kept us on the edge of our seats. Ultimately, it was Ava Gardner's character who tips off Abby about where the babies were and that's running parallel to Mac and Michelle finding them simultaneously. Only issue with the plot was, I would think even in the 80s someone in Valene's position would have hired a lawyer to find out how this could have happened. Lots of depositions. The hospital would be on the hook. But that aside, amazing story-telling.

    I never saw many Blacks on knots Landing except for those 2 seasons with Lynn Moody and her family. What was Ms. Lee talking about? I am a fan, but where were these Blacks that she spoke of?

    • @kindspirit7
      @kindspirit7 2 роки тому +1

      I remember that Larry Riley was the only main cast member and sadly he succumbed to AIDs and died during the last season. Lynne Moody as you mentioned who played his wife and really annoyed me she did not have much to do after her story line of witness protection was solved and then killed off by Danny. It was also one of Halley Berry's first roles as a possible love interest for Larry Riley's character. I did like when Kent Masters King the daughter got revenge for her mother's death. That was a classy closure to the character of Danny and was not expected. Other than that you are right. Do not recall any other black actors on show. Maybe she means those behind the scenes who kept show running? No clue.

      Re: the Williams family. When she talks about race not being an issue on the show because nobody talked about it, that strikes me as a cop-out because it’s pretending like racial factors don’t even exist among integrated neighbourhoods. I’m sure she thinks that’s a progressive viewpoint but it’s also a sign that white people such as herself are uncomfortable acknowledging the historical inequality.

But different races, religions, and lifestyles should certainly be able to exist together and tell great stories with and about their differences! We are not all the SAME. But, we are all EQUAL!!

    • @EastSide-qc5oy
      @EastSide-qc5oy 2 роки тому +4

      She just seems like an actor with a strong and dramatic personality in real life but with a heart and she really doesn’t seem to take herself too seriously otherwise I don’t think she’d be so willing to display her goofy sense of humor and laugh so much. And I don’t think anything “ruined” Knots Landing seeing as though it was a big hit. If it was ruined it would’ve been a failure. But to each his own.
