True, people always complain when they killed off the minor characters - like DYNASTY's Moldavia, everyone shot and bleeding, but by season premiere only Luke and Lady Ashley died and everyone else, no blood...Melrose Place blown up by Kimberly...but only guest star Morgan Brittany died, and despite the cast all scratched up and bruised, Alison went blind.
Killing off main characters never worked all four big soap opera canceld killing off main character, Dynasty joan collins, Dallas Bobbie ,Falcon Crest mellisa, and than the colbys they were abducted aliens yes its true
I still can't watch Maggie's death and it was wrong to kill off Melissa too. I am still not sure why Richard did not try to save Terry and the baby at the same time.
The show was never the same after Melissa‘s death. With that said I never wanted to get in the pool again after Maggie died. I also found it funny back at the time that both Maggie and Chase drowned. And the earthquake that Terry was killed in… Killed off Dwayne and he was the only guy I ever liked with Emma.
Hmm, Melissa, indeed, absolutely. Terry? For me, the character never really developped, not my cup of tea. Maggie? An important character for the show without the shadow of a doubt. But as of season 7, 8 painful annoying imo, but that`s just me. All in all, I hear you: to many deaths of key characters over the years.
They killed off way too many important characters. They should have just had Chase and Maggie leave the show. Julia should have stuck around for the entire series. I think it was a big mistake to make Julia a killer.
@@str.77. Agreed. Taking dramas of this magnitude past Seasons 5 and 6 was a daunting task for the writers. It was almost like FC had 3 incarnations: Seasons 1-4, which were fantastic, 5-7, which were reasonably good, and 8 and 9, which were dreadful.
A big thing back then was bringing characters back from the dead. They did it with Julia in an earlier season and Dallas did it with Bobby. Supposedly in the scene during Maggie's funeral during rehearsal, Susan Sullivan sat up in the coffin and said, "I'll be back" as a joke.
This show never hesitated in killing off major characters, but they only ended up burning their bridges. Melissa's death will always be a major head-scratcher, because it aborted what could have been the show's best stories in a long time (Melissa and Angela's epic war over FC) mid-way through the very beginning of it! They regretted it because they ended up bringing Ana-Alicia back as another character, which clunked miserably. Maggie's death, however, tops them all with its out-and-out gruesomeness. Apparently, Sullivan did not ask to leave the show - she was fired. Another major head-scratcher. They fully intended to bring Chase back - he was supposed to be the monk Angela was talking to in the monastery in season 7's cliffhanger. Foxworth had no interest in returning.
The biggest mistake was definitely killing off Melissa, and then replacing her with that god-awful, atrociously unwatchable Pilar Ortega character. Maggie's death was not just wrong, but the way it was done was cruel, tasteless and gimmicky. Both Melissa and Maggie, as well as Chase, could have been written off as opposed to their shock-o-rama deaths. And I agree, it does seem as if TPTB thought they were being bold and brave by killing off main characters; the problem was the abysmally carbon-copied replacement characters and storylines that followed. The seventh season after Chase's death wasn't too bad; given the show had more than half their budget cut they did the best they could and at least it was still watchable. But then the eighth season came with that Pilar Ortega coming out of nowhere and practically dominating the entire show, forcing the season characters to the back burner. At least with the last season all was wrapped up with no cliffhangers, as they knew it wasn't being renewed.
I agree, it was a mistake to write off Chase, Maggie, and Melissa the way they did. The character of Pilar should never have been introduced. It should have been Lance and Melissa expecting a baby in the final episode. They should have had a love triangle with Chase, Maggie, and Richard in season 7. Maggie chooses Richard and Chase moves away from Tuscany. He could have moved to Australia to work with Cole again. Then in season 9 Maggie moves to Australia to reunite with Chase. After the show was canceled they might have been able to bring back Chase, Maggie, Cole, Joseph for the final episodes. Instead they wrote all 3 off in a shock and awe manner. Leaving them with just Richard, Lance, and Emma left during the final season. Too often TIIC overestimate their ability to create great new characters.
Pilar was different from Melissa. They could have had both characters and made them rivals. Pilar and lance did have a bunch of hot scenes that lance and Melissa never had. I always though Pilar and Cole would have been a good couple.
@@paulvoorhies8821I guess I had my question answered that she played Pilar. I recall seeing the show in the eighth season on Soapnet what did not quite recall her character.
Whoever was responsible for killing off Maggie needed their heads examined. They could have had her going to Australia with the two boys. Australia was where Cole was living.
Definitely Maggie's death was the number one shock of the series! I used to love how brutal the producers were in killing off the characters, however, it created a problem with the final season, in that the new characters it wrote in weren't strong enough to support the show and most of the great characters the series had created along the way, had been killed off. I would have liked to have seen Julia back in the last season, or even Melissa's double, otherwise, what was the point of even creating that character? Sadly, with so many of the legendary characters gone, the last season fell very flat. It really was the end of a golden era!
@@zt1053 In a way yes, but it was the way this for so long time "good" guy transformed to an arrogant, egoistical son of a ****. Nevertheless, a big loss for the show.
Thanks for the upload !! I do know the Robot Foxworth was VERY unhappy with his character in season 1 or 2.. I know that He was told he could direct if he stayed for longer seasons..
Maggie’s death was the most shocking! I can’t believe they just wrote her out this way. It’s was terrible! I loved her character so much. Also the cabin fire with Angela’s daughter trapped inside was very shocking too. It was my all time favorite “exit” storyline.
Huh? Yes, it was shocking, in that there was absolutely no foreshadowing of any kind, and it’s not like it occurred during a cliffhanger or anything at all we saw coming.
Maggie's death was just wrong wrong wrong. What a terrible decision. Sadly the show seemed to just make bad decision after bad decision - Melissa's death was such a waste, Ana-Alicia was so integral to the series but when they got rid of Maggie too they well and truly tore the heart out of the show IMO.
The producers loved killing off popular characters thinking they are “breathing” new life into the show in order to prolong the series. These are supposed to be educated people who are masters of the genre?! After season 8, they introduced boring one dimensional characters that had no reason to be part of the series. Viewers felt that through the years, they bonded and knew the characters and in FC’s last season, they killed off one of the most popular original characters and then bring in some weirdo who tries to smother Angela Channing, the star of the show and they throw her into a coma and tortured fans by cheating them with weird plots and a horrible new theme song. Ugh 😑
God, I loved Melissa. IMHO, FC had the best core ensemble of actors, and the characters were somehow more interesting and intriguing to me than were those in the other prime time soaps. Dallas and KL were a bit too bland (though I loved Abbie), while those on Dynasty were a bit too over the top. Vintage FC, 81-85 or 6 was just right. It’s a shame that the last 2 seasons were virtually unwatchable.
Robin Greer exited the show in an AMAZING story arc, i thought, and i was really impressed with her acting in the role of Dina at the Spa. Apparently Robin’s romance with Lorenzo had soured and he got her fired from the show.
Maggies wasn’t a shocker for me because Susan Sullivan was on the Tonight Show a few months before this episode aired saying she was leaving falcon crest and Maggie was going to die. Maggie wasn’t even in the opening credits that should’ve been a major red flag
I knew Maggie’s was going to be in this list and i turned the video off before i could watch it again. As a kid, this brutalized me for some reason. I have never forgotten about it and cant watch it again. I thought it was the wrong way to get rid of such a strong character. The cheap irony, and the mundane dangerousness of that ring terrified me in the wrong way. It was bad writing…like most of what followed in season 9.
@@paulvoorhies8821 thanks for agreeing with me…she wasnt even a favorite of mine, and it isnt exactly a topic i would take to a therapist, but that scene SERIOUSLY traumatized me.
I’ve watched hundreds of deaths on soaps but Maggie‘s death was really shocking! Like Pam Ewing’s death in the car crash! I just couldn’t believe it! 💔 After so many years of entertainment it’s like a family member has died! Melissa‘s death was similar to Claudia Blaisdal‘s death!
@@Mister_Listener Yes, a year after Victoria Principal left the show, Margaret Michaels played Pam for one episode. Margaret later played Jeanne O'Brien, a Pam-look-alike who took up with Bobby
Maggie was my favorite character and it still breaks my heart! Followed Susan Sullivan from Another World (and David Selby-Dark Shadows). More passionate than the Chase/Maggie pairing, I thought. Chase could have used more variety as well as the character often one dimensional. Robert Foxworth’s talents were under appreciated.
I watched this way back in the day. And now I just started and am near Season 3. But I read a Character List, and it revealed too many spoilers. But, I am thinking the storylines are getting a little tooo crazy. Every week some one dies a tragic death. That made the series too unrealistic. Chase dead? Maggie dead? Melissa? The crazy marriages? No wonder it was on the bottom of the ratings by last few seasons. Please don't tell me that they killed off Chao Li too????
This video should be better retitled THE TOP 5 FUNNIEST DEATHS IN FALCONCREST. Except for Chase's drowning in number 3 which actually signals the real death of the show itself. They should have included the fatal shooting of Lana Turner as Jacqueline Perrault at the end of season 2. But the logical rationale for her death was totally undermined by the later revelation that Angela and Richard are mother and son.
It's time for a Falcon Crest reboot - bring back Lance, Cole, Vickie (and their kids) and then continue the fight to be the best vineyard in the valley.
Don’t resurrect the dead.. These new shows that are reboots never really work. We seen how that these new shows have ignored the original backstories and add new backstories that make no sense and add insult to injury by trying to convince fans of the original series that these families and company names were part of the original series. Dallas was not even picked up by a Major network like CBS and they butchered the Barnes Ewing saga by making up history and weird company names and adding mainly Hispanic characters and dwelled too much on drug cartels and ruined the interior of Southfork and tried jamming down the loyal fans throats that miss Ellie was in a mental hospital after Jock died and created the Latino family and tried fooling viewers that the Latino mother was the Ewing maid and her kids grew up with the younger Ewing kids. Soon as Larry Hagman died I knew it was all over and thank goodness! Now they have a Dynasty reboot without any of the original cast and changed the spelling of main character names and even has a Black Jeff Colby.. Nowadays every reboot has a rainbow of colors regarding the cast. I’m all for diverse characters but where does it say that every reboot has to totally change the show they are rebooting? Just create a new series and then knock yourselves out! The trouble with Hollywood today, is that they don’t have any creative people to write and produce new shows so they have to reboot a dead series. Roseanne started off great then she makes an off colored joke and she’s immediately fired and killed off her own show that bore her name and made ten of millions of dollars in revenue during its original run and actually had a good start viewer wise. She gets killed off, they change the name and made deadpan and monotone, Sara Gilbert, it’s new star and the show tanks! The show didn’t tank when Roseanne Barr was the star and had amazing ratings because she wasn’t politically correct so ABC becomes the new SJW of the entertainment industry and kicks her out? So in their quest to be politically correct, they rather lose millions of dollars by rebooting their own reboot! Idiotic move and they deserve everything they get. Roseanne was the winner and she should be glad she’s out of that snake pit! While we should be compassionate to others, we live in a world where it’s not forgivable if fallible humans make bad judgements or make an offensive joke! She apologized and that’s not good enough? I’m tired of this sissified culture where everyone is offended by everything and people protest every little thing if they don’t get their own way.
Did Cookie actually have Lance's baby and told him just to not be in the child life because that was the last episode of season 8 I could find her telling him that. That child could claim something as an adult.
Interesting that both Chase & Maggie died by drowning. Likely a rumor, but I read that Jane Wyman didn't get along with Mel Ferrer and that's why he was written off the show...
I have to say, out of all the primetime soaps...Falcon Crest was the boldest. This show had no problem killing off main characters.
True, people always complain when they killed off the minor characters - like DYNASTY's Moldavia, everyone shot and bleeding, but by season premiere only Luke and Lady Ashley died and everyone else, no blood...Melrose Place blown up by Kimberly...but only guest star Morgan Brittany died, and despite the cast all scratched up and bruised, Alison went blind.
They kill off Melissa and the shows ratings dropped and it was canceled.

The show died along with Maggie in that pool

Agreed. Abby Dalton’s salary may have been a factor but I did not miss Chase. Foxworth was a definite 10 but the character was boring.
Agree about Abby Dalton's Julia. Such an interesting/ dynamic character. The character should have been on the entire run of the show.
