'Falcon Crest'to ride on'Dallas' coattails this year
By FRED ROTHENBERG AP Television Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Jane Wyman’s new series, “Falcon Crest,” is bound to fly and James Coburn’s spooky anthology, “Darkroom,” is bound to die. And it has little to do with the quality of these shows. Just blame J.R. Ewing. Today’s lesson in television programming begins and ends in Dallas. CBS’ “Falcon Crest” is on J.R.’s side; ABC’s “Darkroom" is the enemy. Last Friday, the premiere episode of “Falcon Crest” inherited “Dallas’” fans at 10 p.m. EST and finished ei4in the weekly rankings. At 9 p.m. EST, “Dallas,” the secondrated show for the week and the TV season’s leader, had three times as many viewers as “Darkroom,” No. 69 out of the week’s 70 programs. If remote control ever caught on, it could jumble one of TV’s most accepted axioms. Many viewers are lazy. After the dial is set to one channel, it stays there. What viewers see next is what they get, particularly if the follow-up program is compatible with the lead-in. “Dallas” and “Falcon Crest” were hatched from the same rotten egg, so to speak. Lorimar Productions created “Falcon Crest” and bad gal J.R. Wyman in the image of “Dallas” and its dastardly oil manipulator. The only trouble is that Larry Hagman, as J.R., brought a gleeful delight to the art of menacing. Miss Wyman, the Academy Award-winning ac-

tress once married to an actor named Ronald Reagan, is not a natural snake. And it shows. After a 15-year acting hiatus because she couldn’t get the roles she wanted, Miss Wyman looks and sounds stiff as Angie Channing, the scheming matriarch of the family vineyard. Falcon Crest. It’s possible Miss Wyman could grow some fangs since in the original pilot seen last summer, she was even more wooden. That went back for an overhaul in plot and several of the major characters, but not Miss Wyman and her nasty grandson, Lance (Lorenzo Lamas). It emerged last Friday as a slicker production, with enough sprawling, soap opera conflicts for a long run of convoluted battles of good and evil, if you care about such things. Over at ABC, that network has taken a different approach to counterprogramming against the themes of power and passion on Friday nights. The tact now is horror at 9 with “Darkroom” and unchecked violence at 10 with “Strike Force,” the fourth lowest rated show this season. “Strike Force” is a bloody waste, but if “Darkroom” could find better scripts and stronger endings, there could be an audience for its mystery and bizzare twists. Coburn, as the shadowy host, strikes a nice balance of foreboding and irony, and the spooky special ef•'ects do build suspense nicely. It’s just that J.R. Ewing ioesn’t scare easily.
