Falcon Crest is an American primetime television soap opera that captivated audiences for nine seasons, airing on the CBS network from December 4, 1981, to May 17, 1990. With a total of 227 episodes produced, this show became a staple in American television history. The series is set in the picturesque Tuscany Valley, a fictitious location northeast of San Francisco, and delves into the lives of the wealthy Gioberti/Channing family, who are deeply entrenched in the Californian wine industry.
At the heart of the series is the indomitable Angela Channing, portrayed by the talented Jane Wyman. Angela is the tyrannical matriarch of the Falcon Crest Winery, a woman who will stop at nothing to maintain her power and control over the family business. Her character is complex and multifaceted, making her one of the most intriguing figures in the series. Alongside Angela, we have Chase Gioberti, played by Robert Foxworth. Chase is Angela's nephew, who returns to Falcon Crest following the death of his father. His character adds an interesting dynamic to the series, as he often finds himself at odds with Angela's ruthless ambition.
The series is also notable for its inclusion of David Selby, who portrays Richard Channing. Richard is a character with a mysterious past, adding an element of intrigue to the show. His interactions with the other characters, particularly Angela and Chase, create a web of drama and suspense that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. With its compelling storylines, rich characters, and stunning setting, Falcon Crest is a must-watch for any fan of primetime television soap operas.
