I was a huge fan of Sidney Sheldon in the 80s. Actually I still read his novels.

In the 80s many of his books were made into "made for t.v." movies.

I just wondered who watched these movies besides my mom and me.:eek:

You know that I watched them, jen*!!! I love Sidney Sheldon's books, especially his books from the 80s. I enjoyed Master of the Game, If Tomorrow Comes and The Windmills of the Gods. I think my favorite is If Tomorrow Comes , as that was my favorite of his novels. Rage of Angels and Bloodlines were also enjoyable!!! :cool:

My favorite Sidney Sheldon novel to film would have to be "Rage Of Angels"!! :thumb: The mere fact that Jaclyn Smith starred in it was enough for me to tune in! :D Great tv movie!

Do you guys know that the original title of Rage of Angels was actually supposed to be Rape of Angels? The publisher refused to publish the novel with that name so it was changed.

Well, I'm glad that the publishers changed the title, as Rage of Angels sounds much better!!! Did I forget to mention that I've met Sidney Sheldon at several book signings? He's a very nice and friendly gentleman. My signed edition of The Best Laid Plans occupies a prized position in my bookshelf.

Trixter, don't forget that Jaclyn Smith also starred in The Windmills of the Gods. :cool:
