WHAT ABOUT SPAIN?
A quiet cul-de-sac in CALIFORNIA, located in a suburban area called Knots Landing...Here, five minutes away from the beach, under a cloudless sky, where it is always fair weather, the sentimental intrigues that developed kept 100 millon Americans on the edge. In the episode RETURN ENGAGEMENTS, part of DALLAS?s Season 2, GARY and VALENE EWING moved to CALIFORNIA after a second marriage. Thanks to Miss ELLIE and BOBBY, the couple would settle in a urbanization: KNOTS LANDING.
Actually, KL was a DAVID JACOBS? project prior to the EWINGS? series: it simply was about the story of four middle-class couples. However the Network proposed JACOBS a more ambitious show, ?more saga-like?. Once DALLAS hit success, he could develop KL, turning the just married into one of these couples.
In 1993, after 344 episodes and a 14-year running, it was cancelled because it was not profitable any more, though it always enjoyed a considerably high audience rating. This was the only surviving supersoap from the 80?s decade. In 1997 a Reunion Mini-series was shot, BACK TO THE CUL-DE-SAC, proving, once more, what was all that distinguished KL from its rivals, including the mother series, ended in 1991.
