Dallas Fan Videos Top Ten Channel of Supersoaps

[Toni]

I clicked on this and it said "This video contains content from WBTV, who has blocked it on copyright grounds."

I don't understand why it is that there are lots of Dallas scenes on YouTube whose content would also be WBTV but they're not blocked. What's the difference in how they decide whether or not to block a video with Dallas scenes?

Make sure you have a copy of the darkest moments video saved for yourself in case that video gets blocked too

Thanks a lot for your interest and opinion, @Kenny Coyote! Though that first video was already re-posted here, in this same thread. The other videos don´t have any copyright problem:

Anyway it seems to be a true mystery because I do respect the copyrights law and give review and even promote the dvds (when available) in every video. That one was the exception, maybe because I didn´t use crappy SoapNet re-runs´ clips...

Here´s this week´s first Top 10 video, now for the best Character Introductions in a Primetime Soap. "Return" scenes are discarded because they will have their own Top 10. Meaning that, Alexis´ is in, but not Abby´s in the last episode of KL. This is actually another Dynasty-fest, so I will have to go to the doctor´s for a check-up! Again, sorry for the poor quality of some clips and the expanded version of others. I didn´t really mean for Beacham´s breasts to look so...well, you will know what I mean when you watch it.

Enjoy this video and get ready for another one soon!

I just wanted to share with you that Audrey Landers herself has emailed me back to give me her permission to use one of her songs in my signature video in honor of our late Ken. She was as sweet as always and even kinder than usual with her gesture! Gotta love this woman so far from her character Afton!!

Like wine, Audrey gets better with time...​

Here is the link to an article about her 2018 tour with her Dallas songs:

From now on this character will be played by...

No, seriously, TPTB are against me again and I re-posted the Top 10 Character Introductions video here:

Monsieur le @Richard Channing, moi thought moi could upload videos from Dailymotion but it doesn´t let moi to! Is the direct link the only option! Moi feels terribly pigscriminated!!

Oh how infuriating @Toni! After all the hard work you put in it's awful to then have it blocked. I'm afraid I don't know anything about Dailymotion, I've never uploaded anything to there. But I'd imaging it must be possible to post something from Dailymotion on here??? Surely?? Sorry I can't be more help!

As for the video this one was so much fun! And a wonderful trip down memory lane once again. Your top 10's are so enjoyable as a fellow soap fan. Very good choices and again some quite interesting facts.

Hello again!

Here is my newest video, now for the top ten most memorable Season Premieres of a Supersoap. I hope it is on enough time for you to watch it. As usual, I have included "Dallas", "Knots Landing", "Falcon Crest", and "Dynasty", because they were the ones that had the best Season Premieres. Remember that I already did one video for the most watched Season Finales (see above). This video will probably be uploaded to Dailymotion if YouTube banishes it for some kind of obscure reason. In this case I will re-post here the new URL. Thanks a lot for your interest and encouragement. More videos to come soon! Opinions are not only welcome but very much needed!

Dedicated to all of you who have posted your thoughts in this thread:

Great stuff Toni! You are really working hard these days! I hope YT doesn't take this one down as well. So how did you come up with the top 10? Is it based on ratings or did you pick the ranking yourself?

Thanks a lot Mr. Dick! Not really, one video per week is a reasonable pacing...If YT takes it down, you will be able to see it on Dailymotion...Funny that Facebook does allow to embed the videos if you upload to it directly...

This ranking is my own thing completely, these have been my favorite season premieres since the beginning (or ending) of Soap times. This time ratings have nothing to do, I don´t want to be a slave of numbers...or fashion if you ask me! Still working on the video with the best 39 quotes from Falcon Crest, and a few others too.

 

[Jimmy Todd]

Great work, @Toni! Thank you!

 

[Toni]

In case you had trouble to watch the video, it should be available now in the link above mentioned. Thanks for your feedback! If you have any suggestions for future videos, you can post them here!

 

[Toni]

In case the YouTube link disappears, here is the same video to watch from Dailymotion! Enjoy it!

PS: @Richard Channing, I finally found out how to embed the videos to Dailymotion...

Well, I got good news for you...I´m not sure if I should believe it, but my last Supersoaps video has been seen by 500 people (or 500 times by one freak of a fan!) without including my own views, in only 4 days! YouTube has given me this info and also hints that if, it´s not been forbidden yet, it probably won´t. Also quite incredible to me is the fact that this year I reached the number of over 600 subscribers. Actually, I don´t pay any attention nor do anything for the numbers, just for the pleasure of making it and sharing it, but this just was a bit of a shock... FYI, I pay nothing and get nothing from uploading my videos, as happens with my site, which I maintain just for my love for soaps.

​

So I´m going ahead with a few more videos. I can tell you a few clues: one if for the best "Falcon" quotes, as I already told you; another has to do with "Actors who started in Supersoaps"; another one with "Female Powerhouses" (the ones who went from rags to riches, so to say), and another one with "Huge mistakes that ruined the SS". Nothing we can´t read in these our forums, which as usual is a great inspiration, not only thematically, but also for all the friends who also make (really) good videos who have encouraged me over and over. Thanks a lot to you all.

After all these years, this family I love so much still makes me happy!!
​

And I also want to remind you that I´d love to see more suggestions to make the Top 10 "Dynasty" videos!! So far only one fan has given his choices and I´d really like to count on the votes of more of you! Come on, don´t be bitchy shy!!

 

[Toni]

Here is this week´s video. Due to the subject ("huge mistakes that ruined the Supersoaps", go figure...!), it will take two parts to complete. You can watch Part One here, with the first (or last) 5 mistakes. Including the "usual suspects": "Dallas", "Dynasty", "Falcon Crest", "Knots Landing", and "The Colbys". "Flamingo Road" will appear in Part Two...I hope you enjoy this video, as you can see at the end, I´ve included thanks to you all here on Soapchat because part of the info you can read about the shows, could be found and confirmed thanks to the threads and posts from here that Google directed me to.

For the Spanish speaking fans of our soaps, here is the same video with our dubbing voices:

Coming soon, new Top Ten videos!

 

[Toni]

Voilà the second video of this week: "Top 10 Tour-de-force Performances on Dallas". I´ve (logically) focused on the first 8 seasons and tried to not only feature "grandiose" scenes but also others more subtle that I think were quite effective and showed off the actor´s skills. I hope you enjoy it!

Here is this week´s video, the second and last part of the Top Ten "Huge Mistakes that Ruined the Supersoaps". This one is a bit longer and, as in the previous one, covers the four major soaps (both D´s, Falcon and Knots), and also "The Colbys" and "Flamingo Road" because...well, we are talking here of "huge mistakes"...if you know what I mean. Number One (the last part) includes a bit of TV history about why we are using a certain expression for a certain moment when quality begins to drop...

 

[Toni]

Here are the 2 videos for "Top 10 Huge Mistakes That Ruined The Supersoaps", now with the original Spanish dubbing they had in the 80s and all the subtitles translated into Spanish too. For all the Spanish-speakers out there who also love those typically American TV shows!

Coming soon (probably this week too), a whole new Top 10 video dedicated to a certain kind of Soap divas that were very, very entertaining to watch...

 

[Toni]

Voilà my latest video and the first new one for September. This time it's for the 10 (+1) rags-to-riches women in the Supersoaps, i.e., those (mostly) young ladies who, despite their humble (or just poor) origins, got to have millions in their banks. As usual, it's a countdown video starting with number 11, plus three more as "honorable mentions". Enjoy them and "like" if you like...
