If whispered monologues were currency, Falcon Crest would settle the national debt.

Falcon Crest has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

Falcon Crest confuses "subtle" with "the cast forgot to act".

Even the popcorn looked bored during Falcon Crest.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Falcon Crest?

Everyone praising the Falcon Crest performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

Unpopular opinion: Falcon Crest is the most overrated film of the decade

Rewatched Falcon Crest last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Falcon Crest actually is?

Just got out of Falcon Crest and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
