[QUOTE="Julia's Gun, post: 379023, member: 987"] Season 8 - Knots started looking like Falcon Crest at that time - cheap, trashy with tacked on cliffhangers at the end of an episode. Gone were the complex, character driven multi-story arcs that cleverly linked most of the cast. Instead we had silly Jean Hackney, Ben's character destroyed, the first one-dimemsional bitchy version of Anne trying to steal Mack, and wonderful actresses like Constance and Julie Harris being marginalised. Karen's kidnapping was desperate, the only things I remember liking is Donna chopping through the bathroom door to confront Olivia, and I quite enjoyed Val and Lili-Mae escaping out the back door of the grocery store to avoid Jean Hackney. The rest was pants, except for the cliffhanger - which should have been Olivia accidentally pushing Peter and killing him, and then abby realizing it wasn't deliberate AFTER she had buried Peter under the cement. No need for Paige being retrospectively involved. [/QUOTE]
