About Falcon Crest
Falcon Crest follows the Gioberti and Channing wine families fighting for Napa Valley control across nine seasons from December 1981 to May 1990. Jane Wyman leads 227 episodes as Angela Channing with vineyard schemes, marriages and corporate raids driving each year.
Broadcast order is the guide because alliances, inheritances and vineyard ownership shift across seasons. Watch Seasons 1 through 3 for the core family feud, Seasons 4 through 6 for expansion and new heirs, then Seasons 7 through 9 for the closing corporate battles. The soap serializes every feud, so season skipping breaks later reveals and returns.
Good to know
Each season runs 22 to 30 episodes of about 48 minutes, so the 227 episode run is the longest in this batch and suits a long soap watch. Early seasons center on Angela versus Chase, while middle seasons add Richard and Melissa power plays. The final seasons shift toward corporate takeover stories. No revival beyond the May 1990 finale has been produced, and the vineyard ending closes the family war.
