I would probably say Pam. At least this is a possibility. I mean nobody's ever proven that aliens don't exist. But with Pam and the entire season being a dream? Nah. That was just insulting our intelligence.
“Now stay tuned for 2020”, so says the continuity announcer and I’m watching this in 2020! Chilling! As for Fallon being abducted by aliens, well this storyline was barking mad even for an American soap in the 80s :) Loved it!

I would love to have been a fly on the wall in the writers meeting for Dynasty when The Colbys was cancelled. Seeing those writers break down trying to figure out what the hell to do with THIS to get Fallon back onto their show
At the time (1987), there was a big alien abduction craze going on in the US which is where this story was inspired from. Whitely Strieber's book "Communion" was a #1 best seller and he was all over the talk shows talking about his abduction by aliens (yes, even I read the book 🤣 I just wish the space aliens brought back the original Fallon: Pamela Sue Martin.

Fallon also recall being stuck with needles on the craft.
@@zed3238 correct. She's said In an interview before had the series gone on it was going to be part of a nervous breakdown she'd have. Yet on dynasty when it was played out Jeff mentioned she was found "miles from her car with not a scuff on her boots" so that always made me think the space ship did exist and once found out she was. Carrington/Colby and all the drama them families carried decided to let her go?
Lol! 🤣What in the?! Fallon gets abducted by aliens?! And then the E.T. -esque music as she slowly approaches the craft just like Elliot did?! This is too much!
I think I read they hired the same production crew from ET and Close Encounters to do her scene with the music and such. No CGI back then so they spent a lot of money on however that space ship was done up
Stephen Fox me too I love this and think it was ahead of its time in soap terms. I can't think of another soap that moved the narrative into that direction as soaps normally deal with the housewife'ishly mundane and domestic: love affairs, homes, children and husbands. But this high strangeness storyline moves the whole genre into a more modern context and gives it an edge that it had lost. People should also remember that alien abduction was a very big deal in the 80s. It was the time of the famous cattle mutilations reported on by Linda Moulton Howe and also the Rendlesham forest incident on an American naval base in Britain. The 80s also saw ET, Close Encounters and numerous other high strangeness motion pictures so I think this storyline is very much of its time and a wonderful way for the producers to inject more Modernity into the series which by then had become rather stale with the usual "soapie" plots of births, weddings, murders and funerals. Fallon, as a character, always had a kind of spacey quality, so it makes sense that she would be chosen to carry out this sub plot. Soaps have always been about a kind of high strangeness anyway. They always have a spacey, whacked out housewife-on-Valium feel about them and I think that an alien abduction plot line works fabulously well in underscoring the whole high strangeness ambience of the genre. In the 1950s and 60s, pop Culture was filled with news stories of housewives and their children being abducted from suburban American homes. The Colbys and Carringtons are a typical American family in many ways, despite the wealth. It makes sense that one of them should be abducted. God only knows that Alexis - the ultimate alieness (a Brit in America) and wicked witch - was always trying to snatch away her children off Blake during the earliest episodes. As abduction is known to happen within family groupings or "constellations" it follows that Fallon's mother (Alexis) was probably tampered with or abducted herself! That explains a lot about Alexis's highly strange and pathological behaviour over the decades! Most viewers wouldn't even realise that Abduction, kidnapping, loss and elevation are staple themes and leitmotifs within the soap opera genre. An alien abduction storyline is therefore a logical extension in terms of this genre of Teleplay. It is not at all "too much" or "crazy" as people keep saying but in fact historically typical of soaps, and also of the times in which it was produced, the late 80s. Only about 4 years after this episode, the X-Files was launched on our tv screens. So in fact, Aaron Spelling, ahead of the pack as he always was, prefigured the whole genre with Fallon's rather romanticised abduction storyline which no one else was doing in '87 in soaps. In fact, if I were rewriting and relaunching the series now, I would have begun the reboot with this abduction storyline and rotated the other characters and plotlines around this one and then reimagined the whole Colby clan through the lens of this abduction. It would've modernised and updated the whole series rather than the silly Moldavian terrorist plot they chose later : I love the idea of high strangeness meets haute couture and making alien abduction kind of chic and ever so camp. (The good looking tall alien with broad shoulders waiting for Fallon on deck looks like a supermodel, and he's wearing a rather fetching metallic one-piece or onesie, which has a high fashion feel to it. If I didn't know any better i would say it was the broad-shouldered and very handsome Linda Evans playing the alien!!!!) Did Nolan Miller make the alien's suit as well with signature Dynasty-era shoulder pads???)
It turned it turned the show into a sci-fi drama. No one watched an 80s nightime soap for sci-fi. And people need to stop saying she was abducted. She went willingly.
Emma was shocked when she read the script. Everbody thought it was a joke. They had to do this scene several times because she and the actor playing the alien had to laugh a lot. In the next season this UFO line would have been explained as a mental illness of Fallon but unfortunaly the producers decidid to stop the show.
@@devontehuntley6274 they resolved it when Fallon and Jeff went back to dynasty although I don't know had the show stayed on if the story would have had the same resolve or not
Everyone remembers this who watched tv then. I think even the BBC news next day reported on it! It was actually really entertaining to watch as a 13 year old kid, and tapped in to alien abduction stories popular on chat shows then.
So we're not sure whether Francesca will live or die and then we cut to the worst plotline ever...and THIS is what they carried over to Dynasty when THE COLBYS was cancelled. Fallon doesnt ask and Jeff doesnt tell her about Francesca. Apparently she recovered but .....
The series broadcasted in China in 1990-1991,and we translated it in Chinese 浮华世家 ！as teenagers we loved it !but the the end of series is so ridiculous!!! We talked about it a lot and got so confused!!!
Smart aliens.. They chose a rich beautiful young chick to kidnap.. How come a spaceship as big as this entering American airspace wasn't detected by the military is beyond me.. If Fallon survives and we all know she will, the only explanation why the aliens abducted her was to take her for a joyride.. We can't have her being impregnated & giving birth to an alien. This storyline just wont fly. Pun intended 😂
At 04:15, does the VO says “The Colbys will be back in a month” or “in a moment”? Surely the latter, though all that was left to run were the closing titles.
Only in the 80s - the best and indeed most camp decade. I wouldn’t have missed a second of it for all the so called advantages of now. By comparison the 2020s are dull dull DULL. The biggest disappointment of a decade EVER.
As a fifteen year old watching this in 1987. I even then, said to myself, this must be in her imagination. Never understood why others took it literally
Because there was no reason for her to be imagining this. If we saw her hallucinating before or doing some sort of drugs beforehand leading to this, then it makes sense to brush it off as that but there nothing of the ordinary to indicate such a thing. Sleeze. Even on Dynasty in the season following this, they have her out back at the house somehow unconscious, so she really was meant to be abducted, which was a good call. Too bad we just never really got to see who these beings were or what they did to her on the craft but we did have multiple episodes of Fallon dealing with the whole thing in Dynasty Season 8.
Pour moi fallon à été victimes d extra terrestres, même dex lui conseille de voir une association des victimes d extraterrestres mais après ils n en parlent plus, de toute façon ou était l intrigue avec ce cliffhanger
Sort of a low budget Close Encounters of the Third Kind. What do you guys think of the effects work for the time? I remember watching this - I must have been about 10 at the time with my Mum and afterwards she went : "What a stupid ending!". This is proof that the writers needed to be be better paid - either that or don't write whilst stoned off their faces.
alphabetaxenonzzzcat I'm pretty sure there has to be at least one fan fiction story available online where someone wondered what happened to Fallon if the UFO was actually real.
Well, I suppose if any of the cast or crew had tried to give away the cliff hanger ending no one would have believed them, they'd have thought they were taking the piss. Personally, I liked the Colby's and I loved this!
So this was on The Colbys and Dynasty? Cause i remember this on Dynasty season 8 episode 3 i think but I only remember Jeff looking for her then her later explaining what happened after he found her. I'm guessing if you wanted to keep up with the Colbys more you had to watch both? I was just a kid when this aired but i still watch Dynasty. I hate the new one though.
This cliffhanger was never shown on Dynasty. The eight season just started with Jeff searching for Fallon in the dessert and then finding her unconscious by the road. Fallon then told Jeff what had happened but he didn't believe her. No one did. It must have been so confusing for the viewers who didn't watch Colby's.
It was in middle of desert. No town at all. Fallon us driving the exact same car Sur Ellen had for a while on Dallas and the same car that would end up running Krystles nurse over in Dynasty The Reunion.
