December 11, 1986: The characters of the "Dynasty" spin-off "The Colbys" continued their tormented existence, with Charlton Heston´s Jason Colby trying to save two Russian dancing siblings from deportation. But it wasn´t just to prove that he was a good American: his daughter Bliss (Claire Yarlett) was in love with the brother Kolya (Adrian Paul, later on the "Highlander" series), who had jumped off the hotel balcony in the previous episode cliffhanger. Of course, Kolya was alive and well, and Jason made possible for him to stay in US. Also in the episode, Jason´s other daughter Monica (played by trashy Tracy Scoggins) freaked out about his little son Scott, fruit of her romance with Senator Cash Cassidy ("Knots Landing"´s James Houghton) who, of course, had married somebody else, a neurotic, boozy woman called Adrienne (Shanna Cassidy). In the meantime, Jeff and the all-new Fallon (now played by Emma Samms) were isolated in a ski lodge together with those two greedy freaks, Miles (Maxwell Caulfield) and Channing (Kim Morgan Greene). No wonder that Barbara Stanwyck left the show and called it "the biggest piece of shit she had ever been part of". Who could blame her for saying that? Of course, her character was cruelly killed not long after she said those words...
Los personajes de la serie-hermana de "Dinastía", "Los Colby", proseguían su azarosa existencia, con el Jason de Charlton Heston intentando salvar a dos bailarines rusos de la deportación. Pero no lo hacía sólo para demostrar que era un buen americano, no: su hija (Claire Yarlett) se había enamorado del bailarín Kolya (Adrian Paul, luego visto en la serie "Los inmortales"), que había saltado por el balcón del hotel al final del episodio anterior. Por supuesto Kolya estaba sano y salvo, y Jason logró que se quedara en su país. Además, en este episodio la otra hija de Jason, Monica (interpretada por la ordinaria Tracy Scoggins) se ponía de los nervios a causa de su hijito Scott, fruto de su aventura con el Senador Cash Cassidy (el James Houghton de "California") quien, claro, estaba casado con otra, una mujer neurótica y borrachina llamada Adrienne (Shanna Cassidy). Mientras, Jeff y su reformada Fallon (ahora encarnada por Emma Samms) se quedaban aislados en una cabaña en la montaña, con otros dos frikis avariciosos, Miles (Maxwell Caulfield) y Channing (Kim Morgan Greene). No me extraña que Barbara Stanwyck dejara la serie y la llamase "la mierda más grande en la que había participado". ¿Quién podía culparla...? Su personaje, claro, fue asesinado cruelmente no mucho después de que dijese esas palabras...
