Jamie Rose - Victim of Domestic Violence

Jamie Rose wrote a very personal article about a very important issue: domestic violence against women. She writes about her personal experiences with violence and with her physically abusive husband and encourages women to break the silence.

Please find the article here. I hope that many women (and men!) will read her story and maybe some eyes will open.

Domestic violence against women and children is still a big issue all over the world that needs to be addressed.

Falcon Crest Forum

If you haven't checked it out yet please have a look at the Falcon Crest Forum where fans are discussing our favorite TV show.
They're currently talking about merging together the Falcon Crest forum with Dynasty, Knots Landing and other shows (due to lack of posters). It would be great if we would support Falcon Crest and show them there are plenty of fans out there, still willing to discuss this great show.

Thanks for your support! :-)

Season 3 DVD release postponed!

Very bad news for German speaking Falcon Crest Fans: According to the Falcon Crest Fanclub, season 3 will not be released in 2012! So, we have to pray for 2013.

Right now, it seems that only the U.S. will release Season 3 in 2012 (as a "made on demand" release and only for people who live in the U.S.)
