[QUOTE="Zable, post: 194475, member: 47"] Neither do I have a problem with Sable not recognising Fallon: 1. My father was the oldest of 14 children, all full siblings. Most of the siblings were born in a different country; dad & 3 brothers were raised by an uncle from when dad was 16. I only knew 2 of these 3 brothers plus dad's youngest sibling who visited us from abroad. While I know by sight and name my first cousins from 2 of dad's siblings, I wouldn't know any of the rest of the paternal side families from Adam or Eve. I'm told I'd met some of them as an 18-month-old baby but, heh, what do I remember. Basically I never had a desire to learn about them. 2. The Colbys existed in a universe different from Dynasty; with differences in the backstory alongside the 'sameness'. Why would everything and anything that might have been newsworthy about the Carringtons of Dynasty necessarily show up in The Colbys's universe? Part of Sable of The Colbys' backstory was that she stayed with her mum in England when her parents split and her dad came to America. She only once mentions Alexis, and not favourably; that's when she speaks to Miles after learning Fallon is heading home to Denver. Sable's relationship with Alexis is a virtual blank slate on The Colbys. From her words to Miles, isn't it possible Sable had kept her distance from Alexis? Possibly for a very long time. I can easily envisage how she might know who her cousin is married to but not know anything at all about her family, including children. [/QUOTE]
