Does Swingtown Remind You Of Knots Landing - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does Swingtown put you in the mind of the early years of Knots Landing? Susan & Bruce Miller remind me of Laura & Richard Avery. Roger & Janet Thompson remind me of Karen & Sid Fairgate and the swingers Tom & Trina Decker remind me of Kenny & Ginger Ward.

Um not sure. I've never seen Knots Landing.

Yes, it does. I do know Richard Avery had an affair with Abby Fairgate Cunningham after she moved into the cul-de-sac - then she had one with Gary Ewing. So yes, there are definite parallels.

This was a good drama type show than ran from 1979 through 1993 on CBS.

They certainly did their share of swinging on the show.

Let us not forget the one episode fling Richard had with Sid Fairgate's first wife.
