[on her popularity while playing the sixty-something Angela Channing on Falcon Crest]: It's not that she's vicious, it's that she wants her own way. She's demanding. But she's old enough - I'm playing her in her 60s - that she can demand the respect. People cross her once in a while, and she doesn't fight them as much as she asks 'how can I get around this?' It's a different role for me. I like it. I think the closest I ever came to this kind of character before was Aunt Polly in Pollyanna. Aunt Polly was a matriarch of sorts and always held the family together. And that's what Angie does. She's a multi-faceted character who treats everybody differently.
