"Val, your babies are alive."

[@comixreadr]

absolutely THE best nightime soap!!

[@marvinnewbill6470]

No show could top KL. This show has been gone for 24 yeare and still people talk about it. Why? Great storyline and excellent writer's. I just wished these shows today could look and see what knots did. Damn I miss this show so much!

[@judycadana]

oh god, I freaking LIVED this show back in these days

[@michellewilliams7695]

Same lol

[@nadineporter5008]

The look on Abby face when Val put the radio on a country music station priceless

[@reginalannister2262]

She's like: even I hаve to feel sorry for poor womаn, but dаmn, she's bаtshit cаrzy.

[@Texaslawhorn]

Haha I love the comedic moments in "Knots."

[@MrCraigblaze]

LOL .She could have managed Like mae-s band. XD Thanks for the Upload

[@christianhirko]

The best ever Knots Landing real stories and of course the amazing Donna Mills so Emmy worthy every year.

[@keithhunter5564]

Donna Mills was not happy when the writers initially had Abby arrange for Val's babies to be stolen, so Abby was only indirectly responsible. Abby made a comment to evil Scott Easton about her concern about Gary being the father of the soon to be born twins. Scott Easton, who was working for Abby at the time, on his own, plotted with and apparently paid the evil Dr. Ackerman to do it. Scott Easton was killed before Abby could find out where the twins were so it took the rest of the season to unravel the mystery. Great, great storyline.

[@karenmonson9893]

I know Donna Mills was not comfortable with this story line!🤔

[@robertscott8344]

​@@karenmonson9893gave further notice of her character she soon to felt was hard to play and by season it was the end for her but she and Jr Ewing what gave the ratings the highest TV shows in in TV history.

[@robertscott8344]

​@@karenmonson9893it was by season 10 she threw in the towel 😔.

[@fwdthinker]

Ms. Mills instincts were correct. This all seemed more real for the Abby character. I don't see her intentionally doing such a thing; even to Valene. If you remember, Abby had some of her most emotional breakdowns over her own children.

[@robertscott8344]

@@fwdthinker some just too her daughter's drug addict and the episode the unraveling what she gave her best performance.

[@dlastqueen]

This was the STORYLINE to end all storylines!!! Abby only told Val so she wouldn't find out that she was behind the babies disappearances.

[@jred1975]

All 3 of Val’s children were stolen from her.

[@Cv227a]

I watched all 14 seasons. Favorite show of all time. Wish it would be made available on Netflix or other service for us to relive all those years. My fave was always Abby Fairgate Cunningham Ewing Sumner!!!

[@tonybuc67]

OMG I loved this storyline so much and Knots Landing. I was so wrapped up in this story I remember back then having a dream that was with Val and I was trying to tell her that her babies were alive. LOL

[@crevrath]

KL writers often gave the actors a lot of freedom with their characters. Originally they planned Valenes stolen twins to be arranged by Abby . But Donna Mills protested saying she felt viewers would never forgive her character for stealing another womas babies. So they improvised to have Abby unwittingly say she wishes the babies were taken away from Val and use her own form of detective work and bringing Val back to the babies. Classic story

[@OceanKingNY]

I guess that Abby's punishment for stealing Val's babies is having to listen to Val's country music.

[@angievincent2458]

Lol!

[@conithomson4409]

I think this show came on before the new country music became so popular. Val was playing a country station that was in old time mode. I can’t remember 💯 per cent, but I think Abby was into classical music. They should’ve cranked up some FM hard rock or 80s new wave. I remember this story. I know Val got the twins back. The one dr blew his brains out when Mac and Karen cornered him in a parking lot. I don’t think Abby really knew the story of the twins being stolen until later. She was trying to help Val by this time.

[@JhomasE]

Joan Van Ark is a wonderful storyteller. She really has an art for doing that. It's like she can totally separate herself and take on the personality of another and tell a convincing story and make you feel for her. Superb. At times, she doesn't even have to say anything. She says a lot with her facial expressions. Wonderful actress!!! A++++

[@profipferdchenBodie37]

Joan Van Ark is my favorite actress❤

[@mikesterSTLMO]

How many more hundreds of thousands of You Tube posts must there be before the geniuses realize what a demand and interest there is for the complete KL series on DVD?

[@jenniferwellman5311]

Snarky Enigma I bought a bootleg copy, somewhere on the Internet, it’s not the best copy. But it’s a copy, I watch it all the time.

[@themightyotis7893]

Amen

[@QueenAlexis556]

Valene and Abby were so much more mature than Alexis and Krystle!! They never got into a catfight over Gary the way Alexis and Krystle fought over Blake. This scene is very intense.....

[@robertscott8344]

Abby was at her most loyal championship with Valene in this scene and storyline that viewers were shocked and couldn't believe it.

[@johnflynn9619]

These two Actresses are Brilliant. Michelle Lee is also Great.

[@jenniferwellman5311]

Nobody could wear eyeliner the way Abby Cunningham could

[@thehindenburg811]

Wish Lucy would have crossed over during this season.

[@luvhart]

This was Abby's redemption. She may have inadvertently been involved in the kidnapping of Val's babies, and spent months covering up her involvement....but in the end she brought Val to her babies.

[@jaylore6516]

Amazing storyline and an amazing show.

[@anmoroto]

Best night time soap EVER!!

[@marvinnewbill6470]

tony I so agree

[@rahlohmcdonogh280]

Dallas

[@cecilialozano53]

I wish Val's and Gary's twins would have come out in the Dallas reboot when they had the funeral for JR.

[@MyFreddy68]

Abby Could be ruthless, or so it seemed, but she was a loving and devoted to her children, not matter what people thought of her personally.

[@deb310red]

As a mother herself, Abby couldn't keep Val from her babies.

[@michellewilliams7695]

Man I Loved This Show!!!!! Take Me Baaaacccccckkkkkkkkkkk.............

[@michellewilliams7695]

UPDATE: FINALLY FOUND THE SERIES TO STREAM AND RE-WATCHING NOW. THANK YOU GOD!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@052970]

I love Abby. She loved Val like a pet hampster.

[@cloverfield911]

As Payton in Savannah would say Abby was "wicked but good". A bitch with a heart.

[@MrCraigblaze]

Thanks for the Upload

[@RedUncle]

oh man, I remember this... major flashback! awesome show

[@emerybayblues]

Donna Mills eye make-up.

[@brianhenson8083]

+emerybayblues I rented her video and did my mom's eyes for her...yes I'm gay.

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

As a waitress in Texas, Valene always longed to live by the ocean. Such a poetic scene!

[@johnnyexplains]

Knots Landing, Legend.

[@jbro8934]

"This time we'll try things myyyyy wayyyy"

[@nadineporter5008]

Awkward Abby and Val in a car when they really hate each others guts

[@conithomson4409]

Too cool. They both could have used some kick ass rock. They were great actresses!

[@michael65]

She made a remark about Val's babies to someone who worked for her and that person went ahead and organised the whole thing unbeknownst to Abby. She spent the entire season totally conflicted about the whole affair and grabbed this opportunity to set things right.

[@DorisDayFanatic]

@adelgado75 No, she was never on Dallas. The only thing Abby had to do with the baby's disappearance was that she casually mentioned how upset she was over the fact that the babies were Gary's to a coworker (I believe his name was Scott Easton). Easton was the one who went to Dr. Ackerman and arranged for the babies to be stolen, but he died mysteriously. Abby received a call from Ackerman's people after the babies were already stolen, but she could do nothing.

[@stacystoltz8722]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😇

[@SaxonC]

David Jacobs created Dallas and KL on the basis of the charactors and how the premise of both shows weren't fixated on the materialism that DYNASTY did. That is why these TWO shows last for as long as they did. JR EWING has to be the greatest of all time. He was evil but had a redeeming quality same as Abby. That is why we love these shows. I wish SOAP NET brought them back on tv

[@bette1908]

@adelgado75 Abby went to DALLAS with Gary once after Jock died, but it was on this show.

[@swolfe9668]

The best storyline

[@stacystoltz8722]

🐻🐻🐻🐻🔥🔥

[@indianahoosier6367]

The only decent thing Abby ever did on the show. The look on her face at the end when Val turned on country music. LOL

[@jessianjel]

I never did get to see this thanks so much

[@RobThompson-de2db]

uh Val you seem calm

[@adelgado75]

A few questions: 1. Did Donna Mills ever cross over to DALLAS? 2. Did Abby have something to do with the baby's disapparance?

[@Ed-uz6em]

Those 80s eyes

[@TheJaking87]

No, it's Donna Mills, although I think she and Morgan Fairchild had similar features, especially the hairstyles.

[@mikesterSTLMO]

TNT's new Dallas was fantastic last summer; let's hope its success fuels renewed interest in a NEW Knots Landing (assuming all the main players would return) ... and I think all of them would.

[@CadillacL]

Does anyone have the scene of the Season Finale where Karen realizes Val is alive? talk bout tear-jerk.

[@ethelhoose2972]

When they did Dallas the next generation none Gary's kids mentioned

[@SweptAway529]

Abby wasn't digging Valene's choice of radio stations!

[@GinaHoffman-er6cw]

Knotts landing great.❤❤ G.H

[@bradybowden7590]

Abby is a good stepmom to Bobby and Betsy

[@mikesterSTLMO]

@scrowfan41 The reason I switched to DIRECT TV was because they were including the new SOAPNET cable channel that aired the entire 13 yr. run of Knots Landing (twice). We were addicted all over again for the two years they aired (two episodes 5 nights a week).

[@colleb95]

It actually ran 14 seasons. I do believe this is the longest running night time soap ever.

[@pdlbean]

Knots Landing is the spin-off of Dallas.

[@bonniekeough244]

Believe it or not but people use to say I looked like Donna Mills. 🤩

[@WolfModig]

Lnots landing was the Best nighttime soap until Donna Mills left

[@WolfModig]

Agreed, once Donna left the show became a joke

[@ReneeDeborah]

Where is the scene where Valene gets the babies back?

[@GinaHoffman-er6cw]

Donna mills did a great job as Abby. G.H

[@Subzero20044]

Dallas is Invated Knot Landing? because she said Ewing.

[@michaelperkinson4444]

Brandon Lee Perkinson

[@littlelouie11]

Donna Mills looks like Advril Lavigne mother.

🎉❤😊🌹😊🔥🐻👋🏻

Who are you talking to?

[@trulymadeup]

I LUv Donna Mills Style Her hair and Make-Up Look so HOT. I try to Look like Her in My videos!

[@heddalee]

Yes, the shows are related. Gary is JR Ewing's brother. Generally, the shows had nothing to do with each other, storyline wise, though.

[@vidhead85]

True Regisperron, but the fact is that Donna Mills did a wonderful interpretation of Abby from what they gave her, but it was true though Abby did wear too much makeup

[@deb310red]

It was the 80s. Everyone wore too much makeup.

[@Gransonec]

Man, did I love Knots Landing. I watched every episode, starting at age 7, through to the end. I remember the hoopla over Dallas. But, Knots was better and I stopped watching Dallas ages before it was finally put to a merciful death. I think, I have the complete first 3 seasons. But, I would love to watch the later episodes again because I think it was season 3 when the show really took off. Why can't they make television like this anymore

[@moonrice555]

What do you care?

[@MrCjdavis12]

ok so is there a place online were i can watch the episodes

[@kreed82]

Is that morgan faichild?

[@thehindenburg811]

kreed82 not hardly

[@jasongibson3496]

Donna Mills is a wonderful actress, but Laura was the best and she was my favorite. To me Laura was the most beautiful actress on Knots Landing. When Laura was replace with Paige, Anne, and Claudia the show went down hill and most of the chemistry was gone. If Laura was allowed to stay in Knots Landing, I would be the first to say the show can have continue after the spring of 1993. But since, the producers killed off Laura, I am glad the show ended in 1993. I also felt concerned for Michelle Lee when Knots Landing entered the 1990's she started to gain weight, but still beautiful. From the early seasons Karen's clothing fit her perfectly, but as the seasons progressed some her clothes became baggy on her. Same problem with my beloved Bea Arthur, when she gain a lot of weight in season seven of The Golden Girls, her clothes beame baggy also. I am so happy when both shows ended Bea Arthur and Michelle Lee lost the weight the gain and started to healthy again. I need to lose weight my self, but I know how hard it is when love food.

[@johnwelford3528]

Karen turning from business woman to celebrity chat show host didnt help things either

[@dlastqueen]

@jasonROXcarlySUX YEP!!

[@vistaprime]

abby's face look's like Trumps tan with those white around the eyes. what's up with her makeup.
