Review: The Warner Archive website has become infamous for releasing the obscure, odd and underappreciated!  This latest addition of the second season of the vintage primetime soap Falcon Crest is no exception.   This long-running show lasted 9 years on CBS, when it was finally cancelled.

I watch these vintage TV shows and a lot of them seem rather silly, be it clothing or just acting, but then I wonder..how many years will it be until Desperate Housewives or Grey's Anatomy seem silly to the next generations?  Its inevitable.  The ground that they broke will be broken time and again, until what they innovated and made great is a tv cliche.  Falcon Crest was a great quality show, thats why is lasted the entire decade of the 1980s.  Its definately worth reliving.
