[QUOTE="Michael Torrance, post: 139770, member: 719"] Far be it from me to dismiss how much Collins offered to the role of Alexis (plus I am afraid of what [USER=68]@Alexis[/USER] would do in that case). But it was beautifully set up as well throughout the first season: the unseen first wife whose past presence was only whispered about and who was a complete mystery upon arrival with that hat. I don't think peach Dynasty did such a great job setting up Alexis, no matter what their version of it was. Even her part in revealing the Colbys' true lineage, which was quite the bombshell, was presented in the most underwhelming way. So, I can't really decide if Sheridan defined the role to be this screwball "redneck man's" Alexis, or if she simply adheres to what they give her. It's also bizarre that they gave her a rich family past upon arrival, and then did everything they could to erase that image from our heads. [/QUOTE]
