  3. The rating is good. The another prime time soap of 1980 could come back like "Dynasty". This sound like the 1980 after Dallas famous cliffhanger Who shot JR?

  5. So glad to see it back - it's been a long time since I've been this excited and couldn't wait for the show to start - Loved the count down taking place during Law & Order - like waiting for the ball to drop in Times Square on New Year's Eve
