Joan Van Ark, Michele Lee & Donna Mills Hollywood Museum Interview - Knots Landing 40th Anniversary

In celebration of Knots Landing's 40th anniversary, the Hollywood Museum unveiled its first lobby exhibit of 2020 featuring the costumes worn by the three leading ladies of the series: Joan Van Ark (Val), Michele Lee (Karen) and Donna Mills (Abby).
Michael Fairman was on the scene with the Michael Fairman Channel for a behind-the-scenes sneak peek before it was shown to the public on opening night. Michael chatted with Joan, Michele, and Donna to get their thoughts on the wardrobe their characters wore during the series run from 1979-1993, the exhibit itself, and the show being loved and remembered by so many people at this special time in its history.

It is hard to believe Donna Mills is going to be 80 years old in December. Wow, that's what 80 can look like?!!

[@NH-ti5rf]

Donna's voice sounds like it did 40 years ago, as opposed to the other 2 grand dames of knots.

[@alanwisdom7777]

Joan van ark she desperately wants to look young, but she's a little bit ridiculous, Donna Mills she's so classy and gorgeous just because she don't do too much.

[@VC-mo5yg]

But Donna wears Too Much Makeup! Joan is very articulate and smart...and Michelle is elegant plus. All very gracious ladies, indeed.

[@dianapearson1771]

Comment not cool!!! They all look FABULOUS!!!

[@claudecrosatto669]

Travis James Why was Julie fired?

[@kathleenfedrizzi315]

Geez, can't Michele Lee just shut up! It's obvious she's envious of Donna Mills.
