Robert Foxworth was only 40 when Falcon Crest started in 81. I graduated High School in 83 but I always thought he was so old at the time. LOL!!!! Good times on Friday night with Dallas at 9 & Falcon Crest @ 10. Miss it.
He was there until season 4 or 5, if I'm not mistaken. The actor who played him wanted to do other things. The show was the most violent of the evening soaps, so it's not surprising that only 3 or 4 of the main characters saw the end of the series. Angela (Jane Wyman) is the one who wrapped up the series in a moving monologue.
This was the last season where Susan Sullivan was in danger of getting whiplash during the opening credits: hence she didn't swiftly turn around in this one.
Well just so you all know: The theme to Falcon Crest was composed by Bill Conti who had also did music for Rocky, The Karate Kid and Lean on Me He also composed music for other TV Series such as Dynasty, The Colbys, The Master Starring the late Lee Van Cleef, Cagney and Lacey from the Sharon Gless Era and of course the theme to the original American Gladiators. and BTW, the 1st AG Theme was THE Best
For me it was Falcon Crest at 9:00 PM and Dallas at 10:00 PM, then I'd stay up later to watch The Midnight Special. I really loved the way these people dressed, especially Chase, Lance & Angela. She could have given Miss Ellie # 1 a lesson or two about fashion.
In Ireland it was Dallas 8pm on RTÉ 1or uk channel BBC1 8pm. We watched it on BBC1 as no ads. When Dallas season was over it was Dynasty they put on. Sunday 9pm was Falcon Crest and on Network 2 (now RTÉ2) Knots Landing.
I never did watch Falcon Crest and only later learned that David Selby who played Quentin Collins on Dark Shadows had been on Falcon Crest. If i had known that at the time the show was on I would have watched it. Next to Barnabas I liked Quentin Collins.
wow . . . .now this was a show that wasnt to be missed back then. i think back to the fights btw Angela & Melissa, Richard, Chase . . .i guess you could say btw Angela & everyone . . . lol. I cried so hard when the last episode aired.
I thought chase was only presumed dead after he and richard dived in to rescue melissa and baby and he didn't return to the boat,anyway dumb again not giving robert foxworth storylines worth staying for.they could do a 3 part film comeback like dallas,if just to allow for his comeback,but maybe no demand at this stage.thanks for the memories as they say
Oh yeah-wealth, wine, Lorenzo, Billy, Jeeps, sportcars along with this phenomenal music made this gay boy want to buy a vineyard in the Napa Valley! I even applied to UC-Davis in high school hoping to snag me a "winery son".
Long live the 80's with wonderful tv-shows like Dallas,Dynasty and...Falcon Crest!

That got old, because so many actresses were doing it.
This and Dallas were my favs when I was teenager...I was in love with Ana Alicia What ever happened to her?...

They need to do reruns on regular TV for those of us who don't have cable

In This Clip, From 0:13 To 1:23, It Was "Falcon Crest" Video Open From October 1, 1982.
She appeared to die in a car wreck which did kill Chase. She returned later.

Dallas was the best show in this genre, but Falcon Crest had the best theme tune.
Nice video 👍
When did Sarah Douglas come I to this, she is a great actress
I don't know if its true or not ;but season one of Falcon Crest is coming out on dvd on april 20,2010 under warner home video.
Actually, it was the 8th season!

I don't think Ana-Alicia was around yet in Season 2.
Yes, but Ana came back as a lookalike character later.
I loved Ana Alicia! Soooo hot.
