[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 123845, member: 8"] [I]The Colbys[/I] wasn't very kind to its characters, and it was almost the opposite of Dynasty. Dynasty had a very upwards approach i.e. Krystle (and Alexis) [I]coming in[/I], while The Colbys was quite downwards - Sable [I]going out[/I]. And that's how she ended up: a very wealthy but tycoon-less divorcee, and nothing more than that. ("I'm here if you need me, Blake"). One could argue that Jeff & Fallon were the newcomers, but hey, they came from Dynasty so it was hardly a "new life". And yet they had learned [I]nothing[/I] from it. The romance between Jason and Frankie felt somewhat pathetic, not necessarily because of the plots but because Jason seemed to feel guilty about it, especially in his scenes with Miles. Sometimes it was hard to distinguish between "wanting Frankie" and "not wanting Sable anymore". Which motivation was stronger? All of this seemed character-driven, rather than a perfectly planned story. But who knows, maybe it was carefully plotted from the very beginning (I doubt it, to be honest). [/QUOTE]
