[QUOTE="Zable, post: 130005, member: 47"] I believe Emma Samms was hired to portray a Fallon, The Colbys' version -- that of a missing heiress who had amnesia, thought to be from an accident but was (also) found to be suffering mental health problems. (A missing heiress who didn't have a resurrected-from-the-dead backstory on TC, if I recall correctly.) I'm trusting that the then Mrs Ken Howard got it right when she said her husband was the only character to have 2 separate on-going contracts, one each for The Colbys and Dynasty. (Each for 3 years.). Ie, he didn't have to sign a one-off contract each time he crossed from TC to Dynasty. I'm thinking that if ES was meant to be the replacement actress for a one-and-only ([U]the)[/U] Fallon, she'd have been given a single contract that covered her time on both series. Esther Shapiro has said that they required the cast to have separate contracts for each of their special appearances. John James has said that when TC was axed, he didn't have a Dynasty contract and wasn't sure if they were going to give him one; ie, return to the Dynasty series. [/QUOTE]
