Yeah...That's all good. But the most important subject I would very much like to see on this message board is whether or not American Dreams is going to be returning for a fourth season, for there are a lot of upcoming great oldies hits I'd like to hear this series play!
I've been wondering the same....
maybe with the better ratings we might get a fourth season....
I wanted so much that the show could get until 1969 and see they mentionig Woodstock!Even better would see the characters' reaction towards the end of the war...
I recently heard Brittney Snow on a radio program here in Philly and she said it is the series writers intentions to go from Kennedy's assassination to Watergate. So hopefully if the ratings continue to go up and NBC continues with it, we might get there. I would love to see them get that far. This show is wonderful.
1969 would represent the sixth season of this series which would also cover the events of the release of the Broadway musical "Hair", which music theme score was performed by the Cowsilis...Hopefully I spelled that right. (It would be interesting to see who American Dreams' producers Dick Clark & Jonathan Prince will get to portray them on the Bandstand set!) And our country landing our astronauts on the moon....OOOPS!..I keep forget to mention the 1969 death of Judy Garland on this website. Season eight would cover 1972. The year in which Nixon won re elction and when the Watergate burglers were discovered. Season nine covers the following year (1973) in which the networks covered the Watergate hearings, and later in the season the US troops are leaving Vietnam and the oil embargo comes up forcing the begining of rising gas prices. So my belief is that AD will probably end at season 11...(1974)... the year that Nixon resigned. Also the speed limit was reduced from 70 to 55 mph (Oh yeah... And Hank Aaron's 715th homerun!)
Yep. That would be great for AD to make that 11 season prime air time. But I myself, as I've mentioned earlier on the Almost Human website, that I would like to see this show end at atleast 1977...(I assume that would be season #14!) Which was three years after I graduated high school and when Jimmy Carter's one and only oval office term began. It was also the beginning and the end of the Farrah Fawcett, (then Majors), craze,...(Does anyone out there believe along with me that Brittany Snow can potray Farrah in either a theaterical or made for TV movie about her life and times three years from now..., which would be 2007 marking the thirieth annaversary of the Farrah fascination? I very much truly believe that that part would be custom made for her!) Reggie Jackson's three or four home runs against the LA Dodgers in game six of the 1977 World Series equaling the Yankees the title, and the release of the smash hit science fiction flick of that year, Star Wars, to name a few events of '77. I would like to imagine how Ethan Dampf would like at that time for this would be his period as an adult that the American Dreams' 14th season would focus on. Along with some of jammin' disco hits from that year the show will play by some of mid to late 70's artist such as the Commadores, Elton John, Donna Summer, Three Dog Night, The Bee Gees, and how about the outstanding Barry Manilow and his disco hit from that year Coppacabanna?
Number #1; You are refering to Ethan Dampf's character as Will Pryor as I'm sure. And number #2; Brittany Snow as Farrah Fawcett,..."OH, DEFENATELY YES-SIR-EEE-BOB!!!" I remember seeing the old reruns of the Six Million Dollar Man that were filmed within that particular two year period of 1976 and 1977 in which she made one or two guest appearances on her, (then), husband's show while maintaining her regular starring status on Charlie's Angels as I was growing up. (Oh yes...I've seen the reruns of that series also!) You all wanna' know something that's interesting? I was born in 1982. Which just happens to be the year in which Lee & Farrah divorced. My mom and her younger sister were real Farrah Fawcett fans back in those days, at least up until the time she divorced Lee Majors. To this day I still don't understand why that was. But getting back to Brittany playing her, this in my opinion is the perfect feature for her to be casted for I see an awful lot of the younger Farrah in Brittany's Meg Pryor character on American Dreams. And here's another item of interest. the year 2007 not only will mark the golden 30th annaversary of Farrah's rise to stardom but Brittany Snow will be celebrating her 21st birthday. 21 was the exact age Farrah was when she made her television debut as a contestant on the old dating game as history explains it. Of course, this was all before my enterance into this world. I just happen to study things such as this in archives as you would assume. Plus my aunt saved all of the old tabloids and magazine articles from the 1977 interviews with Farrah and her then husband Lee Majors that she , my aunt-my mom's sister, let me check out back when I had just turned 15. I found that stuff fascinating and thought to myself that one day there should be a movie made about this person, and not just about her life as an actress on Charlie's Angels. But her life shortly before the camera and of course her life and times off camera also. For example, her entire life with Lee Majors.(1973-1982). I think that Jamie Elan who is currently playing Luke on AD is the best candadate for this part. he seems to have Lee's younger age qualities he demonstrated at the time by the repeats of The Big Valley. A western tale of a wealthy minning family headed the the glamorous late Barbara Stanwick in which he played Heath Barkley some several years before becoming Col. Steve Austin. The question is who can be selected to play the young Ryan O'Neal who Farrah began her second romantic lifestyle with plus mothered is child. I repeat...Brittany Snow can portray Farrah Fawcett...Then Majors, then Fawcett again. Wanda, I indeed agree with you. What do the rest of you Brittany Snow fans who follows mid to late 1970's to early 1980's history think of mine and Wanda's suggestion? "LET WANDA AND I HEAR FROM 'YA!!!"
