Message: <blockquote data-quote="Luke_Krebbs_Ewing" data-source="post: 369421" data-attributes="member: 64">David Jacobs was a creative genius.Not only did he create Dallas but Knots Landing as well.Katzman might've steered the Dallas ship during Dallas's hey day but I gather he was really miffed about Jacobs creating the show and wanted a hit show of his own.I'm not really a fan of Knots Landing however even I know that David Jacobs guiding light kept that show grounded in reality much more that Leonard Katzman did on Dallas.I want to take this opportunity to thank David Jacobs for creating both shows and changing the landscape of the soap opera genre during the 1980's.  He was an original and deserves recognition for creating both of  these iconic shows.  Thank you Sir.   <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />[ATTACH=full]47081[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
