In this episode of Adapt or Perish, we're looking at Jacqueline Susann's Valley of the Dolls! We're very sorry.

In this episode we discuss:

• Jacqueline Susann's original 1966 novel
• The 1967 movie, directed by Mark Robson, written by Helen Deutsch, Dorothy Kingsley, and Harlan Ellison, and starring Barbara Perkins, Patty Duke, and Sharon Tate
• The 1981 two-part TV movie, directed by Walter Grauman, written by Laurence Heath, and starring Catherine Hicks, Lisa Hartman, Veronica Hamel, Jean Simmons, and James Coburn (here's a current YouTube link, for however long it's up)

Footnotes:

• Episode 73: Flowers in the Attic
• The Patty Duke Show
• Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970), directed by Russ Meyer and written by Roger Ebert
• The gloriously 90s intro of Valley of the Dolls (1994)
