Lorenzo Lamas praises Jane Wyman

Check out what Lorenzo has to say about Jane Wyman in this article from fansshare.com:

#001e.7 Wyman, Lamas & Apollo - Expecting the Guests - FCVM EntranceActor Lorenzo Lamas has worked with some top names in the industry in his career but he says that he learnt most from working with the extremely talented Jane Wyman. Lorenzo says that Jane was the perfect role model, as she was in no way a diva and was always there to help him when needed.

Lamas explained, "She was an actress, not a diva. Always arrived on time, knew the dialogues, did not ask a huge caravan. So no other actor could ask for a huge caravan. The only thing of which she could not talk about was her marriage to Ronald Reagan."

He added, "Working with stars intimidated. What happens is that when you're young and a bit silly not you realize that you have the opportunity to work withBTS04.10b GoldenGlobe Jan29,1983 - Wyman & Lamas legendary actors. There were times when I thought that at one point someone would appear on the set for me. 'We realize that you have no idea of ​​acting, is over' That's what I did to keep the humility."

Lorenzo Lamas has a very busy couple of years coming up, with a number of movies due to be released over the course of the next year or so. Lorenzo has no fewer than five films in post-production right now, as well as a couple of television projects.

Surrounded by loved ones, the "Law & Order" vet was overcome with emotion as she received her star, which is perfectly placed next to that of her mother, the late Jayne Mansfield. Among those who came out to celebrate Hargitay's milestone moment were her husband, Peter Hermann, their three children, August, Andrew, and Amaya, and her half-sister, Jayne Marie Mansfield.

Theme Swap: Falcon Crest meets North & South

It’s time for another theme swap and this time I’ve tried another series that also has a great opening theme (composed by Falcon Crest composer Bill Conti): North And South.

For this theme swap video I’ve used the design that was used in North & South’s season 2 and filled it with the actors from Falcon Crest’s season 4.

So, Enjoy! Smiley

Falcon Crest returns to Canadian TV

seas038Good news for French speaking Falcon Crest fans in Canada: The show returns to Canadian TV. Starting August 26, Falcon Crest will be aired on Prise2. In Canada, the show was called “Sous le signe du faucon”.
I’m not quite sure if they’ll air the whole series as the trailer only speaks about the first season.
Here’s the trailer with the French voices:

New Falcon Crest Article

FC182 months ago, the Hill Place Blog published a great article about season 8 and how Falcon Crest had changed after that particular producer’s change.

I remember how I felt when I watched the season 8 premiere for the first time and how disappointed I was (after the terrific season 7 finale I had expected an equal season 8 premiere). Things had changed on the show and one of my most loved characters got fired: Ana-Alicia. After this the show never was the same (for me) and I know, many of you feel the same way.

So, enjoy this well-written article. It’s worth reading it.
