Episode Transcript

(00:00):
All right, so someone brought upApolonia. Well, it's been well thirty
one years, no forty one years, excuse me, since Purple Rain came
out and Appollonia was a star inthat, and of course Apoloia is six.

(00:21):
And the whole thing is she left, but one of the things she
did after she left is she wenton to Falcon Crest. And this is
why this is my response to becauseI love responding to you out there who
listened to the podcast. Thank youso much listen for it. I think
I'm the only Falcon Crest podcast.I know there's blogs out there, but
I don't I there's any other podcastsor not. If there is, let

(00:42):
me know, because I won't listento them. I didn't find any.
But anyway, the communder names Idon't get. I don't you know.
I tell be im very simple.The Falcon Crest after show, that's it.
But they might be smart, butlet me know. Anyway, I
was like Apollonia to me, wasnot a bad actress in Beverlerange. She's
not a bad actress. She wasan actress first. Clappilon Katara was an

(01:02):
actress first, And I thought,this is a great opportunity to go from
a hit movie to a hit primetimeTV show in America around the world.
That probably was a stun casting alittle bit, because you know, first
of Appelin was beautify, still beautiful. She was beautiful back then. Of

(01:23):
course, coming off this hot thingwe associated princess stuff. They brought her
on. They brought her on asa singers. Was a stretch, but
she was off season five. Shewas off like ten episodes. She was
Lance's girlfriend again. It was finethe storyline. I mean, it's one
of those storylines that I guess itcould have went farther. They mean,
she could have stayed on long.I mean, I guess they could have

(01:44):
done more with her. They couldhave, but she was competent. She
was fine on the show. ButI think the long run, the music
business, I mean, this isabout a winery. I mean, nobody
we don't need. We don't reallyneed that. But she did perform some
songs on the show, which I'mafter I finished talking, I'm playing you.
One of the songs she did onthe show as called look into the

(02:07):
Fire in My Eyes. Very eighties. But I like, I liked I
liked it. I liked some ofthe songs she did, and but yeah,
she just came on. That's Idon't. I have no bad thoughts
about her. I thought it wasa little bit of a stun casting,
but ultimately it just didn't unless theywere going to change her character to like

(02:29):
be not really be in the business. Unless they Unless they they could have
created I guess a place where shecould have sang, you know, became
a we'll see she has become likea lounge singer or like a nightclub act
in the city. Maybe she couldhave done that. I guess they could
have. But it was fine.I so for me, no problems with

(02:50):
her. I being on the show. It was fun singer. As I
found Creston as a Prince fan,I was like fun singer on there.
But I want to mention also laterduring the pandemic, she started her Appolonial
Studio six. It's a YouTube exclusiveseries which talks to offer old people bandmates.
So Vanity talks to It wasn't Vanityto Apollonia six to old producers writers.

(03:15):
I just looking there again. Ifshe did anything about fucking Crests,
I'm not sure, but I'm we'lltry to get her on the show one
day. As we get around here, we get we can think going too.
But it's a fun series about herpast and they talk about everything and
it's really it's really cool called ApolloniaStudio six is which in that. But
ultimately I know problems to bring onthe show. But also I mean she
just wasn't. I mean they didn't, they didn't insistedn't. It was a

(03:37):
long term. It was fine.It didn't keep her on that long,
but it was just good. I'mJames D. Junior, Fine quest after
