I'm new to the world of glitzy '80s soaps; Scruples was my gateway drug. I just got the Warner Archives DVDR and loved it. Couldn't believe how well it was done!

Please recommend some other, similar miniseries. I know there was a Lace 2, and also "Scruples" with Lindsay Wagner...are there any others that reach the heights of Lace? Glitzy, glamorous, globe-trotting minis with lots of sex and sin? (The only thing that worries me is seeing those horrible '80s fashions...I didn't even like them back then, let alone now.)

Master of the Game was a pretty good mini series for it's time.

Anything by Judith Krantz, preferably PRINCESS DAISY, and Tll' We Meet Again (see Princess Daisy ASAP!!)

I am 90% sure that the ABC show Revenge is the offspring of Lace, or at least the wannabe offspring, but oh how that show works hard to remind me of Lace.

Agree definitely Princess Daisy.

Lace was the forerunner to all those glittering, trashy and fabulous 80's miniseries like 'If Tomorrow Comes' with Tom Berringer and Madolyn Smith, Joan Collins in 'Sins' and 'Deceptions' with Stephanie Powers. I loved all four of them, and except possibly for Sins, Lace was the grandest of them all.
