I am halfway through season 2. I cheated and went on to the opening credits of season 3 out of curiosity to see if Nick was around in season 3. It appears he is not but I was shocked to see Claudia still is. I forgot she’s even in the show. There is nothing for her to do, especially since Steven married Heather Locklear.

It looks like they did not end the series willingly like the CBS shows did, is that correct? Did ABC pull the plug on them and not let them wrap up loose ends?

I haven’t given up yet but it’s hard. I know it was popular, up there with Dallas, but I’m struggling. Blake Carrington does not have the charm of JR or Richard Channing or Gregory Sumner. Alexis is no Angela Channing and doesn’t have the looks of Abby. All Kristal does is cry. I liked Fallon early on but she’s not given much to do. I still have some hopes but they’re dimming.
 

Snarky Oracle!

I think I read that they originally envisioned Blake Carrington played by George Peppard. I think that would have been much more interesting.

Peppard was cast as per the network's recommendation, and he shot the 1980 pilot, but he was a problem on the set and was fired.

Peppard and Collins already disliked each other, and wouldn't have worked together well -- if at all.
