Donna Mills "Knots Landing"

She was the woman America loved to hate. From Clint Eastwood’s Play Misty for Me to nine unforgettable years as Abby Ewing on Knots Landing, Donna Mills turned elegance, ambition, and icy stares into television gold. In this exclusive conversation with Steve Kmetko, Donna opens up about her Hollywood journey—from her first soap operas in New York to becoming a primetime icon. She shares behind-the-scenes stories about working with Clint Eastwood on his directorial debut, why Abby was more than just a villain, her thoughts on a possible Knots Landing reboot, and the powerful ways the show touched fans’ lives. Donna also talks about motherhood, her new podcast We Are KNOT Done Yet with Michele Lee and Joan Van Ark, and what legacy she hopes to leave behind. If you grew up in the era of 1980s TV dramas, or you’re discovering Knots Landing for the first time on streaming, this episode is a must-watch.
