[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 437254, member: 57984"] Everybody's pronunciation of Jacqueline stood in sharp contrast to Angela's contemptuous "JAKKLIN PERRAWLT" (which was always funny). But, as we've said numerous times, Jacqueline was almost worth more to the show dead than alive, the potential Mother of all Soap Mothers -- sweetly elegant, blackhearted and vile. Maggie's sordid revelations about her mother-in-law's history in Season 3 would never have happened were Lana Turner still there. With Madame Perrault conveniently out of the picture, they could attach any sin, past or present, to the character (and, if anything, they didn't do that [I]enough![/I]). It just worked. The same can't be said for Caress being shoved aside on DYNASTY -- she should have been fully on display for Season 7 in order to harass her sister (and Diahann Carroll, who also wanted Kate O'Mara out of Denver) before exiting, possibly disappearing in that avalanche which never happened. And then brought back for Phantom Season 10. But Collins was renegotiating her contract in mid-1986 and, yes, probably wanted O'Mara gone. (Kate apparently believed this to be the case).
