Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This sequel aired just one year after Lace became a surprise ratings phenomenon, capitalizing on the 'Who shot J.R.?' era of event television.
The original Lace miniseries coined the infamous line 'Which one of you bitches is my mother?' — this sequel trades that energy for a slightly more sedate mystery, reflecting how quickly 80s TV trends burned hot and faded fast.
