Season 2 (1982–83)

Season 3 (1983–84)

Season 5 (1985–86)

When this new season began, Falcon Crest had started with the regular practice a recap to remind the viewers of the previous episode's recollections, before a short sneak preview of the new episode, prior to the main title. Midway throughout the season, Jane Wyman had been absent for only 2 episodes, due to her abdominal surgery.

Season 6 (1986–87)

This is Robert Foxworth's final year. Originally, the producers intended to have his character attend anger management classes, to fail them miserably, and to become the show's most bitter and obnoxious villain; it didn't happen. He also directed some episodes. Midway throughout the season, Michael Reagan, Jane Wyman's real-life son, had a recurring role as the concierge in a hotel.

Season 7 (1987–88)

Due to the largest number of rotating guests on Falcon Crest, and of budget constraints, 5 of the 10 main stars didn't appear in several episodes of this season.

Season 8 (1988–89)

The show focused heavily on the new cast members. Two of the former cast members did not return. Ana-Alicia played two different characters and Jane Wyman's poor health resulted in the show's episodes being reduced from 28 to 22.

Season 9 (1989–90)

This is the final season of Falcon Crest. It is also the only season in which Jane Wyman does not appear in nearly every episode, due to her ongoing health problems, while at the same time, the show went into a different direction by adding 2 new cast members, who replaced Susan Sullivan, who left the season, before. By show's cancelation, against her doctors, Jane Wyman appeared for the show's final 3 episodes.
