[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 444420, member: 57984"] But those critics were being "fair" based on what they were seeing at the time. They likely had no memory of Season 1 & 2 and her more nuanced work, nor her perfectly decent performances from the '70s. By the mid-'80s and mid-DYNASTY, Linda was coasting on "automatic," suffocated by S.A.D., was not written for, and clearly felt "stultified" (Gordon's wording). At least Rita allowed Linda to do something else, preposterous as it was. And, yes, maybe they should have gone even crazier with it than they did. But the audience was cratering so rapidly, an extension probably wouldn't have been accepted --- although I do want Alexis to hire [B]another [/B]double (Joanna Cassidy?) to briefly impersonate Krystle yet again around Denver boorishly in order to cast doubt on Krystle's "likely story" about Rita! ([I][SIZE=5]That Alexis is such a bitch!)[/SIZE][/I] [SIZE=4]Much like I want Krystle's post-limo crash headaches to morph into something more significant.
