@@loriryan2045 she and Julie Harris were both let go due to a budget cut.Poor Constance basically had nothing to do on the show. The big juicy parts went to Donna Mills, Lisa Hartman, Joan Van Ark and Michelle Lee. That left Constance Mc Cashing with nothing to do.I LOVE 💗💗💗💗 Constance McCashin a lot. Also Julie Harris.Later on they added to many characters on the show which I thought was a bit unfair.I miss both ladies a lot.😢😢.
I miss this show .my favorite is Donna Mills Abby I love the villain.i even got my mom to get me her style when I was in middle school.tjis takes me back
Constance McCashin performance is great here. She played a strong supporting role. Constance was an anchor or sort. Without her the series deteriorated.
@robertscott8344 yes, compared to today, they were mild. Passive evil. Today the just put a hit, or shoot, or poison people they don't like. Much more malevolent
Lol. That movie really suffers because both female leads were obviously written by Clint to kowtow and bow down to his macho persona. Campy movie, but fun i guess. Chauvinist for sure.
This is when the show started to veer away from the cul-de-sac feeling. I liked how Laura got in way over her head here trying to “get a piece of the pie”.
The storylines did get weaker as the show progresses. After Abby left, they couldn't find another villain quite like her and they tried. I love this show so much. Please reboot this show!
That's why they brought Abby back in the final season, she was behind the deal to take over the Sumner Group. Nick Schillachi worked for Abby. He was dating Anne Matheson.
personally from season 3 to 10 it was absolutely great; from the 11th to the 14th season (except the last two or three episodes) it became less and less exciting
Abby had another brother named Paul ,,his son apeared in one episode when he came to stay with abby and sid before sids death he was named Paul jnr. , there was thought once of writing in a sister for Abby that she never knew about but the writers didnt do it ... Heather Locklear and Heather Thomas were considered for the part but nothing came of it !!
+T James But it had to lose that, or at least expand outside of that. It was going nowhere when the stories revolved around just happenings in the cul-de-sac. The only storyline from that era that had legs was Abby's affair with Gary, but unless the show was willing to have every couple sort of do the Bob Alice Ted Carol thing, how far can you take that sort of plot? I don't think they delved into too many business storylines. And this one, with the Wolfbridge Group, was great in that it involved most all the players. They even found a way to get Val involved in this one at the end, even though she had no real connection to Wolfbridge (other than being a neighbor/ex-wife to those who were). The next season, Empire Valley wasn't as strong or compelling a story, but within it, they were able to weave the Val-baby-kidnapping storyline, arguably Knots Landing's most remembered and watched plot.
Thanks to Jock Ewing Gary's inheritance what gave him soberity to start fresh with his own business lotus point development if not Abby would have wanted the file a devorce.
