Let’s preserve this show the way it is and pray for no reboots.

You said it. Enjoy your life.

Amen.

I'm working on one right now starring Paris Hilton.

80s Soapie theme songs just oozed wealth and old money. I loved them!

[@GospelAccording2ME]

That bird at the end kills me every time.

[@dalemcilwain]

A proper finishing touch to a nice intro.

Are you a cat? I think that you can only be killed once.

@@felix121984 nothing to do when you're 15 in the mid 80s no driver's license or girlfriend stuck at home on a Friday night watching Falcon Crest on CBS

[@lindakristinekjrlibraten5759]

I remember this when I watched it in the 80s. The broadcaster sent this and Dynasty every 2nd time and stopped the series when there was a drama going on. Just to keep the excitement on in each of them. I loved both series.

[@njdh]

This is defo my favourite version , just love the middle bit between Margaret and Laura

[@MrSandRune]

Everybody sat in their dark oak room, late at night with furniture tv, and drank wine & whiskey

[@UFOsAreRealArea51]

And dreamed about upgrading their land, to an Heavenly place to be, for themselves and THE FAMILY.. oO O

Wonderful show!!!😍❤❤❤

[@juliansmith4352]

Back in the day on Friday nights visiting my late grandparents in Columbus Georgia my grandmother was obsessed watching Falcon Crest in the mid to late 80s on their CBS affiliate WRBL

[@jimstone7928]

The theme song was written by an Italian ( heritage). Is that surprising? (Think of Ennio Morricone). Nothing this elegant, glorious and decadent is provided by Hollywood anymore. Its all politically correct, silly bull sh** sitcoms and reality shows today. A reflection of why society is worse off now than we were 25 years ago. Damn, why does entertainment keep getting worse? Despite the treachery, egotism and gold digging demonstrated by this nighttime soap, the protagonist, Angela Channing, (Jane Wyman) did something no other television character in her position aspired to do: keep the family together and protect and defend the land that belonged to them. What a powerful and wholesome message when you come to think of it, really. There was an honorable message to be gleaned from this television series. I don't think we can say the same about any other. Especially the garbage they shovel out today. I miss these shows.

[@jameswhite7997]

I'm 8 again and all is well. This music meant I should be in bed!

[@bethfollett1249]

I used to sneak out of bed when I heard this start to play

[@lindakristinekjrlibraten5759]

I can tell you that lots of people know that feeling, James! I was 11 - 12 years old and had to watch it in the afternoon the next day. But the big conversation at school from Kids who were alowed to stay up came with some spoilers during the day. Not nice......

[@Parkape79]

😂😂😂 I’m right there with you

[@MrRubenGNavarro]

My new ringtone. Please call me at innopportune times, or when I'm in the middle of some crazy drama!!

[@imenea7520]

Wow I didn't know that the guy from Manimal, Simon MacCorkindale started off in Falcon Crest! 🤩

[@CaptainSiCo]

He filmed this AFTER Manimal.

[@tj.espygil4544]

His first big role was in the 1978 Agatha Christie film Death on the Nile.

[@michaelknight8149]

This theme says we've got a shit load of money

No doubt in my mind that this guy wrote Superman / Star Wars theme music also

This Music fits also in an good round of The Dark Eye or Dungeons und Dragons !!

Lade precis upp signaturmelodin från Dallas och falcon crest på min kanal. Med lite kommentarer Vilka underbara serier det var :)

Sounds like NFL films

[@Katzenpapataunus]

This one is a Little faster …cause from vhs …….butt ..this version issss different…….Power

[@abcabcboy]

Is this from Icelandic TV? Interesting to see that they even translated Falcon Crest to, "Falkahreidur".

[@robertsilva8097]

The one thing I never got about this TV series was if their family was supposed to be multi-millionaires and their company was a multibillion-Dollar company why they Did Not Have A modern mansion on the other side of the property

[@felix121984]

Chace Gioberti was suppose to be the original J R.

[@oskihaddad6406]

I was a 4 year old

[@felix121984]

Does anyone else see Emma Channing as the middle aged adult version of Ponyboy from the Yearling or Pollyanna ?

[@CH3CH2OCH2CH3net]

Given that there are palm trees and grape arbors, I guess it's safe to assume that this was filmed on the southern, interior portion of Iceland? [gentle, good-natured teasing about the Icelandic subtitles in this video!]

[@estew6764]

Can anyone tell me why Billy Moses changed to William Moses? Wondering what made him change it.

[@lianebarrett1622]

I think I heard he changed it from billy to William Moses because he got older billy sounded like he was a teenager or younger. William R Moses is better I think

[@robertsilva8097]

From 1981 to 1999 Lorenzo Lamas was one of those hot actors that made a lot of movies and TV shows from 1995 to 1999 Lorenzo Lamas made a lot of Generic movies They Never went to the movie theater they went Directly to VHS it could have been in the movie Navy Seals with Charlie Sheen also another great movie that Lorenzo Lamas could have been in was Terminator 2 Judgment Day another movie you could have been in was Quigley Down Under Doc Hollywood nothing but trouble The Burbs Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead The Rock Demolition Man these movies I just mention Lorenzo Lamas could have been in all these movies were hits in the movie theater why would an actor pass up an all these hit movies

[@robertsilva8097]

I thought Lorenzo Lamas I thought his first acting was the TV series Renegade 1993 but then I remember seeing him in this TV series as one of the sons

[@tj.espygil4544]

He played Olivia Newton Johm's initial boyfriend in the 1978 movie Grease.

What is the EXACT version of this? The version I downloaded from itunes is not precisely the same -- more tame and lame. Unacceptable.
