In 1985, Itʹs already been a novel, a movie, a nighttime soap, a daytime series, and a made-for-TV-movie. Are there any secrets left to tell in the sleepy New England town of “Peyton Place”? NBC seems to think so and originally ordered “Peyton Place: The Next Generation” (airing tonight in 1985), as the pilot for a new weekly series. A lot has changed since the first TV version, says one of the showʹs original heroines Barbara Anderson (as Betty Anderson…Harrington…Cord…Harrington): “Kisses were different. We had to keep our lips closed and a kiss could only last a certain amount of time. Now on television thereʹs no mystique about it, and they kiss all over a person…(On the new pilot) thereʹs a certain amount of nudity to be shown, and the bedroom scenes are far more racy than the ones we used to do. There are certain story lines in the show that are quite outrageous. Thatʹs all I want to say about it. The show is good commercial viewing.”
