I always liked him. This is sad news. I’ll keep his family in my prayers.

I’m not sure if there was a bigger fan of the show than me in the 1980s. I always loved Michelle Lee (Karen) and Kevin (Mac). I also loved William Devane, Alec Baldwin, Donna and Nicolette. The best storyline was Olivia, Abby’s daughter, being on drugs.

This is one show I would love to see a re-boot. I am sad that KD would not be a part of it, but Karen, Abby, Val and others had kids that would be a “next generation” KL.

I’m kind of glad they’ve never done a reboot. KL in its original incarnation was just the embodiment of perfection for so much of its run. A reboot would have the cards stacked against it; it would be awfully hard for it to be anything but a disappointment, compared to the original.

Myself and the fans in the Knots Landing Community are beyond devastated over this. He was such an amazing man always of service to his family and Country. And our beloved Mac McKenzie. He will be in our hearts forever

Watching an old Kojak episode with Kevin Dobson…just wondered what happened to him. I google him and see that he passed away over 2 years ago. Sorry to hear. I really loved his character on both shows. Great guy.

Tyra Banks Exiting ‘Dancing with the Stars’

Yesterday, Tyra Banks dropped a bombshell when speaking with a reporter from TMZ, while out for a stroll.

Banks shared that she’s not going to be returning as host of Dancing with the Stars, and has decided to focus on the business and entrepreneurial side of her career, plus producing behind the scenes entertainment projects.

This morning on Friday, Banks confirmed the news to Deadline.

Tyra had joined DTWTS in season 29 when she replaced longtime host, Tom Bergeron. She also became an executive producer of the reality-ballroom dance competition.

Last season, DWTS streamed exclusively on Disney Plus, and was taken off the ABC network.  During the last season, Tyra co-hosted the show with Alfonso Ribeiro, although she still presided over the ballroom competition.

Thus far, there has been no news of the next season of the series, although it’s expected to return.  In addition to Banks, dancer Mark Ballas along with the previously announced departure of dancer Cheryl Burke, leave the show with some shoes to fill.

Check out Tyra’s chat with TMZ below.
