Top Ten Knots Landing Moments- Part 2

[@beeweejr]

During season 2 & 3, I became a big fan and stayed loyal thru the end. My favorite PM serial drama of all-time. Michele Lee was the bomb!!!!! Loved that Karen Fairgate McKenzie.

[@aneXXa]

I enjoyed your list. Another good moment that I'll always remember, is Greg breaking down after viewing Laura's tape (after her death). William Devane is a wonderful actor and this scene was emmy worthy in my opinion.

[@josephgraefe4886]

Knots Landing had so many great moments, it is hard to pick just one as the best. I simply loved Knots Landing!! The cast and crew were awesome!

[@misstoppertop]

Great. Thanks for that! Abby who was once called "the White Witch" in an episode is my all time favourite, number 1 female soap bitch. No one else comes close!!!

[@gymbeef]

WOW what an amazing show it was and so well written and acted .thanks for the memories by far the best soapie ever

[@edwardgately5931]

Thanks for posting this. I would totally buy a DVD set of the entire series. Can't understand why it's not streaming anywhere.

[@mthivier]

IMO, the number one moment was Abby and Val's showdown: "I'm not saying I'm having an affair with Garry, and I'm not saying I'm not; I AM saying that I can have him any time I want." .... SLAP!

[@fwdthinker]

The storyline for #2 is another example of Knots Landing full circle storylines. Remember that Valene had spent YEARS hiding from J.R.; especially whenever she would sneak into Dallas to see Lucy. She was a pro at being on the run and hiding. So the idea of her being kidnapped, escaping, and hiding out actually made sense.

[@rck1174]

"Didn't you know it would float??!!??" Classic scene!!!

[@user-hx7mi7ml8u]

“Go to bed, Brian,” “I’m just making a terrible noise by hacking up the door.”

[@noqualms1960]

Great effort in assembling and posting, thank you! My #1 moment didn't make your top 10 though : Abby burying Peter Hollister's body. The whole season finale that year in May 1987 was an incredible hour of excellent writing and acting!

[@knotval]

Great choices.... and it's hart to pick a top 5 from 14 seasons. In number 2... oh my gosh... I get chills every time. Having loved them together from the first time I saw them together, this is spellbinding and goose-bumpy for me. The way Gary says "cooommmme home" and Val catches her breath when she looks at him. That's the heart of the whole series to me. Thank you for cherishing it, too.

[@Sbamabelle]

Olivia's drug addiction was my favorite Abby storyline and Donna Mills said it was hers too. So real and powerful

[@NYCEllieMonster]

omg!!! I forgot how GREAT Abby was in the Olivia is a drug addict story line!!!

[@kurt4271]

I agree with #1. But I hoped it might be when Gary & Val got together towards the end of the show. Thanks for bringing back some great memories! They have to release seasons 3-10 at least on DVD so I can stop surfing KZbin for snippets of my favorite episodes!!!!!

[@TIPTON340]

The scene with Karen saying goodbye to Sid was actually Michelle Lee saying goodbye to her husband James Farentino who she was divorcing at the time.

[@tribe1964]

and thanks for posting this my all time favorite series

[@ksmithwhite]

LOVE this!!! Thank you so much for the best show ever! Would you please also upload the scene of Val's wedding to Ben where she and Gary talk about the twins being his? P

[@williamdexter9032]

ive tried for an hour now n can't find somethin plzzzzzz help me- what season and ep is- when val gets blown up in a vehicle-

[@irememberla6460]

I got hooked during Olivia's drug storyline! Classic

[@patriciahill2320]

iremember la "Give me the keys."

[@tigerlilly573]

That was a good one

[@ksmithwhite]

Sorry my daughter sat on my phone and hit send. Anyway, I remember loving the music and feeling sad and romantic about their relationship and all just as she was to marry Ben! Thanks so much.

[@CentsMy10]

This was my show back then and I grew up to it about 10 when it started in 1979! I couldn't avoid this show since EVERY female in my family watched it! By 14 i was dedicated too! LOL

[@jennhunt1996]

Love your #1 pick. I'll always have a soft spot for that moment. LOL!!!

[@AjrimmerMr]

That was such a treat Thanks guys!

[@tdeladeriere]

Good job ! We all have our favourite moments, and I'm very grateful to watch yours.

[@TimsDale4ever]

Also.......when Val wakes up at the hospital after her overdose from Jill. Gary moves to the side to reveal Jill standing there. When Val sees her, she completely wigs out. Also, and I can't remember the storyline, but Gary is "dead" and is in an ambulance at his ranch. Mack is there and Val drives up and walks to the ambulance. She realizes Gary's in there and when Mack tries to pull her away, Val goes balistic. Van Ark's performance here if almost "frightening" to watch.

[@chuckgan]

That storyline was dealing with Wolfbridge and faking Gary’s death leading to the best cliffhanger ever!

[@jeremyjones8354]

number one should have been when val got the babies back..the acting and storyline was brilliant!

[@knotval]

Oh yes, season 6... Val's babies... my favorite.

[@CadillacL]

Didn't see it here but, my favorite scene was when Karen sees Val again & regognizes her. The scene w/Val & Gary was great too :)

[@MrCraigblaze]

2 of Abby's classic lines .."Go to bed Brian". .And Paige. ."Your fired".. XD

[@MrCraigblaze]

It's nice to see what everyone's version of what their faviorate top ten moments are.

[@MMAfighter38113]

Karen's storyline of her addiction to painkillers was pretty good in my opinion. She was very convincing. I loved how Mack found Karen unconcious in the shower after almost overdosing. I wish somebody would load that clip on youtube.

[@pdlbean]

@vidhead85 I agree, too many to count! I'll have to do "10 more of the best Knots Landing moments" and use some of the suggestions I've gotten. :)

[@vidhead85]

#5 is amazing! Gary did that with conviction even as a drunk..#4 was just great writing and great acting! #3: Abby going crazy to save her baby! #2 Classic Knots...Val was gone for a year...but boom! She's back! # 1: Oooh...that moment made me want to cry so bad! I have to say that Knots had so many wonderful moments that you can't count them all! Esp when everyone thought Gary was killed by a Wolfbridge assassin! Olivia wanting the car, Karen and Val's fight after Laura's funeral

[@loudounlad]

This is great. I don't know how you narrowed it down to 10. If I were able to put something like this together, I'd include: --Karen bringing the babies back to Val (although the scene you included with the "adoptive" parents was awesome) --Lilimae running down Chip --Laura's video goodbye to Greg

[@61766]

These are all great. I totally agree with these!

[@not2stern]

Great clips. But I thought one of the all time best moments on the show was when Jill help Val at gunpoint and forced her to take all those sleeping pills. Those episodes had me on the edge of my seat.

[@jennhunt1996]

I agree. Simply Fantastic!!

[@eugenephillips4340]

This was one darn great show

[@djintheatl]

Olivia: Are you gonna lock me out? Abby: No, I am gonna Lock you IN...with ME. YES!

[@comixreadr]

Great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CarlD2]

Some great scenes here that I haven't seen elsewhere. I appreciate them a lot, some of this is often forgotten. I was wondering if you had the scenes where Laura drove off to die alone; where Ciji sang and Karen, who'd just old Mack they couldn't be together, wept; where Karen kissed Abby on the forehead after Abby gave a kidney to Diana; where Eric slapped Diana; where Greg tried to see Abby without any makeup on.

[@MMAfighter38113]

KL did a great job fooling everybody into thinking that Val died in that car wreck when she was kidnapped. Never in a million years would I have expected her to return at the end of the season. Karen's prescription drug addiction should've made the list as well.

[@jeremyjones8354]

I knew she would be back somehow...and her and gary and twins be back together,,,the show was my favorite...

[@MrThesheenster]

Michelle Lee was always one of the ten best actresses ever to live...BASTA!

[@jackjackson9812]

Its hard to choose ten when there were so many good moments from 14 years of amzing writing actors and actresses. I never missed one show. Still miss it today. IMO however somewhere atleast in the top 5 should be when Abby was looking in Bens computer and reads a letter he wrote to Val -and it says he don't know if he can ever get over the fact that GARY is the father of the twins. I believe this was season 6-It shows Abbys face in the screen of the computer-shock disbelief hurt mad and steamed. She knew they could take her fortune-this is when the plot gets deep and the storyline got heavy with the kidnapping and all-it was a powerful scene when she found this out. Another great one was when Val thought Gary had died and she was 8 months pregnant with his twins and he was in an ambulance-her acting in this is problably the best acting ive ever seen by anyone-I believe it was season 4 -maybe 5? But I mean it was truly amazing acting. Does anyone agree with me and remember these?

[@EWollberg]

It was towards the end of season 5 (as part of the Wolfbridge storyline). I'm not sure she was 8 months pregnant though - it had few more episodes till the cliffhanger & few more in the upcoming season before she went into labor.

[@lostindiancamp]

I think the episodes with Olivia on drugs are my favorites. It really shows Abby while she isn't in control like she normally is. She is just a real person in these episodes.

[@heavenleigh2463]

That must be where I got the idea to take my daughters door off when her grades were bad. Hahaha

[@Katee586]

Number 1 should have been when Laura died and left the videos for everyone and the ending was of her reading "Good Night Moon" to the baby.

[@brianhenson8083]

yes yes yes my poor li'l Red!

[@natashazent919]

Kathy qqqdau

[@beckymigdal3140]

Best ever

[@CarlD2]

@pdlbean KL had so many wonderful little moments, they always packed a lot of small gems in with each episode, so random things will just come back to you. Another I loved was when a drunk Jill "accidentally" hit Paige with her purse, containing an urn filled-with Peter's ashes.

[@drlee2]

#1: The scene that was the start of Val and Gary being apart for the next 8 seasons of the series. #2: The scene that set them up staying together for good.

[@scottaznavourian3720]

The smirk on chips face ..

[@PajafromPrague]

Good episodes where Phil kiddnapped Karen . I liked how Greg figured it out and then saved her when he wanted to chop the door of barn down . But mistake letting him go . When he blackmailed he was suppose to pass him to cops .

[@michael65]

I loved the way Valene and Abby returned and smack into the middle of a storyline they'd both been connected too even offscreen for the whole season. Only KL could've allowed such irony and gotten away with it. How I miss this show.

[@EWollberg]

That was so good, indeed! This was really "tying up the knots", retrospectively, for the entire season!

[@stewartlynch7859]

"WE'VE GOT TO STOP THIS! WE'RE HURTING PEOPLE WE'RE RUINING LIVES!" Gary Ewing's Armageddon speech.

[@stewartlynch7859]

P.S. It should also serves as Gary Ewing's speech to combat the coronavirus.

[@badwolfobfxfile1081]

Do you have actual full episodes of Knots Landing it would be great to see them if you do, cant find any proper episodes in order and no one seems to have posted anywhere season 10, 13 or 14 just bits of clips in a foreign language. This would be great if you have them but if not we shall take what we can get, cant believe season 3 to 14 has never had a dvd release which is such a shame their are people who prefer this drama to the rubbish we get today!

[@pdlbean]

@linny50 in hindsight, I could've placed some stuff better. But hey, this was a collaborative effort with a friend. She had some say too.

[@vidhead85]

@CarlD2 Wow! Some moments that I hadn't thought of and forgot...I never saw the one where Laura drives off and the scene with karen and abby was amazing! Great writing and great acting put together! I never saw the one where Eric slapped Diana and Greg trying to see Abby w/o makeup was futile! lol

[@tatik8682]

Watching clips and reading comments, I am so jealous of the people that could watch this. I really wish someone would point out a way to get this series somewhere. All these youtube clips had to come from somewhere.

[@DarthSideous63]

@pdlbean How about when Gary gets the phone call that his brother Bobby died? I know it was Pam Ewing's dream but he named his son Bobby.

[@MrCjdavis12]

Hey could someone send me these seasons or just upload them to youtube please. im like everywhere trying to find them

[@tatik8682]

Same here. I wanna watch this so much!

[@neosoulchick76]

Love it!!:):)

[@carolineali7030]

my all time favourite show....watched it time and time over!....William Devane I had a massive crush....still do actually!😀

[@ny228]

What about season 9 finale when Jill attacks Val

[@kevingoodnight124]

That is my all-time favorite

[@dramaticguy]

I love how Valene came back from the "dead",Dallas ended on a downer with April's death.

[@vidhead85]

@linny50 I have to agree...so many people don't take into account that it takes a lot to create

[@MrCraigblaze]

Shelley lomg came back to cheers in 1993. Donna mills came back to knots in 1993. Joan van ark came knots in 1993. Who stuck a bur up victoria principal saddle. XD!

[@MrCraigblaze]

maybe she was mad that they gave pam to another actress..even if it was only for just one episode..XD

[@soapsnthings4182]

"Dallas" had been off the air for 2 years, by 1993

[@MrCraigblaze]

@@soapsnthings4182 Yes true.. xd

[@TimsDale4ever]

The best TV series EVER! Like your picks but you really did blow it. How could you not include Val's reaction when the doctor told her the babies were stillborn? How 'bout when Abby was trying to bury Peter Hollister -- a riot! And anything from my absolute favortie storyline -- Jill's descent into madness. When she breaks into Val's house and holds her at gunpoint to take the pills, Swallow Val, swallow. I can't without water. Beyound amazing.

[@pdlbean]

@CarlD2 Thank you! I have all of those scenes. In fact, I have any Knots Landing scene you can think of. :P However, it would be impossible for me to upload all of them. I'd gladly upload a couple of scenes of your choice. I'm currently working on uploading Olivia's drug storyline, but when I'm done with that I can upload one or two of your choices if you'd like to narrow it down. :)

[@Jupiterwind]

Could you please, upload each serie from season 1, I would love to watch the full serie. Thank you so much. Xxx

[@brianalejandro5746]

pdlbean What about the episode when Gary tells Jill all the things he hates about her which pushed her overt the edge?

[@michael65]

Will you be doing Top Abby moments?

[@harvsoul]

Name the episode: 5- A New Family- 1/27/1983 4- Letting Go- 4/01/1982 3- No Miracle Worker- 1/08/1987 2- Just Like Old Times- 5/13/1993 1- Living Dangerously- 5/06/1982

[@pompeyaschattenhofer4687]

SIN DUDA EL MEJOR MOMENTO ES EL Nº 1, BUENA ELECCION

[@CarlD2]

@pdlbean Thanks! I just listed all those in case you didn't have some of them. If you could, I'd like to see Laura driving away, and, now that I remember it, the scene where Karen realizes Laura is dying. Those would be great.

[@Alvin4NY]

I hated the way the show ended as far as bringing back Val, so much of it was unbelievable and far fetched. But this scene with Ted and Joan shows how well connected they were to each other, and how they showed up for the scene, despite the cracked storyline.

[@jenniferwellman5311]

I remember when Karen lost Sid, it was the first time the main character died. I don’t recall ever watching another show where that happened. I may be wrong

[@pdlbean]

I sure do. Would you like me to make a little "clip" video for it?

[@robertmofford]

What about Laura's death?

[@pdlbean]

@linny50 well thank you for the support. :)

[@geraldhighsmith7710]

Great show the valene thing was too much so much Val all else about the show WAS interesting to watch

[@michael65]

I would've put the scene from Olivia's drug story when Abby's eyes widen at the realisation that Brian's in danger because he doesn't have the money and Abby turns and bolts from the house to rescue him.

[@Mister_Listener]

I liked Manny Vasquez running drugs thru Lotus Point, or when Abby told Paige she worked to get all the things that Paige was given by birth. Or the “Rating you on the Abby Scale” scene.

[@MMAfighter38113]

#2 really threw me for a loop when i first saw it. I really thought Val died in that car accident w/ her kidnapper.

[@macgto]

Seriously?? How could you not even include Jill's attempted murder of Val, making it look like suicide?? What about when they finally cornered the doctor that arranged the kidnapping of Val's babies? I could go on, so many other, more worthy choices.

[@thebigloc1]

macgto that storyline with Val and her babies was the most heart wrenching. I was only 3/4 when I saw it on irish tv 2986 I know it was on USA tv 1984. I remember watching it repeated twice. One of the best soap storylines. The Jill storyline was so good too. When Karen was found drowning in the bath. Loved Paige, such a great character.

[@reilert79]

Laura's death, the scenes where Karen's stalker sends her the snake roses, Karen seeing Val when she comes home, and the black neighbor lady whose name I can't recall getting run over should have made the list. I'm just saying....

[@brianalejandro5746]

reilert79 Pat Williams played by Lynne Moody. I enjoyed her character.

[@CentsMy10]

Ole Crazy Val was ALWAYS in a pickle or some overly dramatic storyline. I swear I don't remember her laughing too much; just a lot of screaming and crying on the TV over some kidnapping, almost murder, alcohol, adultery or addiction! LBVS

[@jane1975]

Joan kind of suits the brown hair.

[@equinespirit2008]

My fav was when Laura was dying & she had to leave Greg...

[@olnightstar69]

My favorite moments were Abby moments: -When Val slapped her for having an affair with Gary. -When she realized that her people stole Val's twins. -When she buried Peter to protect Olivia. -When she rated Paige a 6 on the Abby Scale. -When she blackmailed Greg to sell his company. -When she moved back in the neighborhood. (Just like old times)

[@romanvalentino7024]

i would say the only 2 that should be on this list are wolf bridge cliffhanger and abby breaking down the door. what about val slapping abby in "china dolls" and cliffhanger from "the long and winding road" and greg watching laura's video to him in "noises everywhere?"

[@TIPTON340]

My knots moments would be in no particular order: Sid's death Val's confrontation with Abby Gary' being a suspect of Ciji's murder Laura's funeral Val loses the babies Peter's sudden death Lilimae runs over Chip Sumner's mother comes to town Paige and Sumner play crochet Joshua's fall.

[@soundloud625]

What about the mama and papa’s Singer she was in knots Landing

[@montygreen6228]

You are referring to Michelle Phillips.

[@pdlbean]

I'm... sorry? You're entitled think that's the best scene if you want, I enjoy it myself. :)

[@JonathanAnon]

I guess the scene with Paige in the lingerie getting in to Greg's bed was only in the guy's top ten list then.. ;-)

[@MrBJG79]

For me: #1 will ALWAYS be when Val got her babies back. It was that moment when I realized that Karen was truly the BEST friend ever. I even call a true BFF a "Karen", I still haven't found my "Karen" yet though.

[@tribe1964]

get her abby!! that is the only time I liked her in the show she was a momma bear even though she is to blame for her daughter being a fiend evil mother and all that even if she was great with her kids she was too money and power hungry and her kids was nice it had to hurt having a mother who was a creep to everyone except them

[@princesseluxiole]

I totally disagree with this list. the Karen moments were boring, she keeps yelling all the time. And where are the Sid dying moments? The Gary in rehab? Gary cheating on Val with Abby? The Richard pointing a gun at Laura? Richard disappearing? Gary finding Val inTN? Val's babies returning? Laura stealing Greg from Abby? etc etc lots of better moments than those listed here IMO.

[@labhairgaelinn]

did someone get killed in this show by falling on a paper spike in an office and then the girl who pushed him's mother buried him on the beach?

[@pdlbean]

@purecorkboy06 okay, I'll see what I can do then. :)

[@MMAfighter38113]

olivia was a babe in the later seasons

[@mushymunch28]

@michael65 i'd like to see the top abby moments! there are loads.

[@patriciahill2320]

That Chip! I hated him and Diana!

[@MrCraigblaze]

My favorite Linda fairgate's death!

[@montygreen6228]

I had a big crush on Linda FairgateThe writers chose to eliminate the Linda Fairgate character. I was not happy about it.opinions may varie on this.Lar Par Lincoln is such a cutie. I hated to see her go.

[@CaptainSpalding72]

Kinda of sick of Val's twins in everything. It was great and all but damn, the show ran long enough to rack up more moments. I loved the death of Danny Welska. You thought maybe Gary killed him, but no.....
