I have been binge streaming "FALCON CREST 1981-1990" for weeks. The series is unapologetically capitalistic, brutal, ruthless, crime filled, and hard core greedy. In the years it aired on television, I did not realize what the storylines and character arcs meant. In a few episodes, the tag line was, "this is the American way". Tell us your impression of the show.
Did you know the late Jane Wyman was married to the late former President Ronald Reagan, when they both were actors?

LTC Trent Klug well, this year I have streamed all of these shows. Believe you me, I have learned what all the fuss is about concerning "Make America Great, Again". I did not know how big business operated until I got schooled by Angela Channing, J. R. Ewing, and Blake Carrington.
Wage issues, worker conditions, union issues, imperialism, back alley deals, the regular working joe, all of this, I never understood how it all works.

PO3 Phyllis Maynard A Hollywood interpretation of capitalism is never how things work.
I stopped watching Yellowstone in season one when a fired hand was taken to the 'bus station'.

I never watched Falcon Crest, so really cannot say much about it... However, based on your discription, I would have been hard pressed to watch more than one episode... as for Jane Wyman and Ronald Reagan, I knew of their marriage.

School me CPL Douglas Chrysler. It sounds like a dicey story. Back in the Falcon Crest decade, I read an article that stated Reagan and Wyman remained very good friends over the years.
So since the breakup was before my birth, tell me what the scandal was

PO3 Phyllis Maynard Just that he had been married before. There were other politicians who were divorced but for some reason the people where I lived didn't think it was morally correct for a president to represent America.
