I know Hunt Block.
I went to college with his sister, Aimee... I'll have to tell you about our pajama parties some day.

from the website:
And each of the ladies, dressed in gowns from their own closets, madly primped before hand-held mirrors as a photographer positioned them for a cast photo alongside Ted Shackelford (Gary), Kevin Dobson (Mack), William Devane (Sumner), Michelle Phillips (Anne), Lisa Hartman (Cathy) and a surprise guest, 79-year-old Julie Harris (Lilimae).
But unlike Desperate Housewives' much-publicized Vanity Fair cover shoot, which involved Knots Reunion no-show Nicollette Sheridan (who is on a worldwide Housewives promotional tour), not one actress attempted to upstage another.
"I walked up to the photographer before we started and said, 'I think the two blondes (Van Ark and Mills) should be standing together,' because I didn't think it would look good with me in the center with a blonde on either side," says Lee, who ended up in the center anyway. "The reason this show ran so long is because we are all healthy professionals. Donna speaks out for what she wants, quietly. Joan does her own thing. And I make it very understood what my needs are and defuse a lot with humor."
"We were an acting company, not an ego company," Mills adds.
Van Ark says the only tense reunion moment occurred during a scene when she ad-libbed: "The only reason you want to watch these reunions is to see whether we're in wheelchairs or on walkers." Another actress, whom Van Ark declines to name, demanded that the line be cut and the scene be restarted.
"But it is true," says Van Ark, who is never far from her treasured "Mona," a hand mirror bearing the image of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa. "Why else watch this reunion but to see how we look?"

Posted: 11/15/05 at 11:40amYou know - the back story on this show is interesting. It was actually suppose to be the fore-runner to Dallas, but CBS wanted a backstory on the characters of Gary and Val and they got SO creative that it spawned the series Dallas. It took two years of Dallas being on the air until CBS felt we knew enough about the Ewing family that they confidently premiered Knotts Landing.

i had read that the writers came up with KL first but couldn't sell it so they developed dallas instead which the network bought.
once dallas became a success the network wanted a spin-off, so the writers dusted off the old KL pilot and viola, instant success!

Posted: 12/2/05 at 3:11pmSpeaking of Michele Lee (well, she was on Knots Landing, wasn't she?), she and Chita Rivera were on WILL AND GRACE last night. I don't watch that show, but I was channel surfing and saw them. Not sure if it was a rerun, but I was surprised I didn't see anything posted here (or, maybe I just missed it). They appeared to be lesbian lovers. Didn't really catch what was going on, though.

Posted: 12/2/05 at 9:07pmWhy are they promoting Julie as being on the show, even showing her on the opening credits, yet making this big deal about a "surprise guest", and showing everyone screaming over said surprise? Idiots. I want to slap them for treating us like morons.
