[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 366181, member: 57984"] Didn't they say during Blake's trial at the end of the season that he and Krystle had been married for 10 months? I can understand the "nine year" thing -- the show didn't premiere until January 1981, but the wedding took place either in May or August of 1980 (depending on the source or wall calendar you rely on) and Krystle's last episode aired in January 1989, so I guess they decided that nine seasons translated into "nine years" and I'm fine with it. But these dates are always up for dispute and debate and, for the most part, don't really make sense. And nobody keeps a family bible of character-related dates for a show (even if they should) in order to keep them consistent. I mean, even in the first season, they decide Roger Grimes died on the night of November 12, 1980 (which seems a wee bit early, even if B&K were married in, say, September) and then there's the date on that receipt where Krystle, her name misspelled, tried to pawn and reproduce her emerald necklace (which clearly occurred in the fall or December at the very latest). And that was when the show still knew what it was doing. [ATTACH type="full" width="736px" alt="emeraldnecklace.jpg"]46496[/ATTACH] But then this is a series that re-used its banal episodic titles multiple times. So time frames aren't going to matter at all. [/QUOTE]
