This mini-series has some deeper meaning for me which I will spare readers. Suffice it to say, it is Carol Burnett at her best and supported by a wonderful cast who simply bring out the best in each other. It is of course a scathing parody of such 80s fare as Dynasty, Falcom Crest, The Colbys, Dallas, Knotts Landing (get the picture?) Except for one thing. Ms Burnett and crew totally and remarkably lampoon the above shows. Laughs abound as each member genuinely looks as if they are having the time of their lives. Charles Grodin is wonderful, Dabney Coleman is at his best and Bill Paxton is as sexy as ever. As a matter of fact, this is when I first began to notice Bill. He has evolved into a wonderful actor and I wish he would do more comedy. I love this mini-series so much.
