TV FLASHBACK : BLONDES VS BRUNETTES 1984

In the 80's at the height of her "Dynasty" fame, Joan was asked to do a TV special for ABC and her co-star was another prime time vixen, Morgan Fairchild. Both glamourous ladies were the most popular stars on international TV screens at that time. Morgan had appeared in "Dallas", "Flamingo Road" and at that time "Paper Dolls", a TV series based on the popular 1982 TV movie of the same name. Incidently Joan originally played the role of Racine in the movie, that Morgan played in the series! Morgan also appeared in "Falcon Crest" and most recently in the awful series "Fashion House", Morgan and Bo Derek been the only redeeming feature of this short lived series. Morgan's last role in a soap/drama was last year in "The Bold And The Beautiful"

"Blonde's  V Brunette's" had Joan and Morgan debate who was better and more fun, blonde's or brunette's. With the help of guest stars including Brooke Shields, Susan Sullivan and Rita Moreno and anyone on ABC at that time. The best part of this special was the sketches, spoofing "Dynasty", where Joan played Krystle and Morgan played Alexis. There was another vignette where the girls played two mothers who meet at various stages in there lives, up till they are old ladies. These sketches are the best part of a silly show, but the ladies look fabulous as usual as you can see by the photos shown. I cant recall this ever having been shown outside the USA, so I was delighted some years ago to get a copy of it, so I could discover the verdict about "BLONDE'S VS BRUNETTE'S!!"
