[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 357819, member: 673"] Wow! I didn’t realise there was such a gap between seasons 13 and 14. A gap of that length plus the Sunday afternoon slot that it eventually aired in, I think is pretty indicative of how the BBC and the general viewing public viewed [I]Dallas[/I] at that point. As others have said [I]Dynasty[/I] (and [I]The Colbys[/I]) were the only two to stay in primetime for their complete run. [I]Knots Landing[/I] ran for two and a half seasons in primetime (first on Saturday then Friday) before being dropped mid season three. BBC started broadcasting it again (picking up where it left off), three years later, in 1986 when it was added to their daytime schedule. [I]Falcon Crest[/I] was on ITV and I think its time slot varied by region. I don’t know if it was a case of it starting in primetime before being moved to daytime or if some regions only ever aired it in daytime. Regardless, ITV dropped it somewhere around the middle of its run and it was then picked up by Sky, who ran it in primetime. [/QUOTE]
