The second season of Dynasty introduces two new surprises that turn the Carrington household upside down and they may never be the same.
The first surprise is Blake Carrington's estranged first wife, Alexis Carrington (Joan Collins). She is called in as a character witness in Blake's murder trial. She testifies about the years of neglect and abuse at the hands of Blake Carrington. What she does NOT testify about is the lifetime of secrets,lies, and personal vendettas to get even with Blake after all these years.
The second surprise is Krystle's estranged niece, Sammy Jo Dean (Heather Locklear). She is basically dumped on the Carrington doorstep by her father (who was married to Krystle's now deceased sister). What she brings with her is a lifetime of experience from learning how to survive on the "wrong side of the tracks".
Both women are shunned and openly criticized in front of everyone. They both find a friend and solace in Steven Carrington. Alexis from a maternal instinct and Sammy Jo from a survival instinct. By the end of the season, both women's fate is hanging in the balance as to how to get what they really want from the Carrington household. Will the two women be able to complete their plans for what they really want from the Carrington household? Sorry, you will have to wait until season 3 to find out.

The hair! The clothes! The jewels! The cars! The furnishings!
There never was, and there never will be again, a show like Dynasty. Revenge, greed, lust, homosexuality, abortion, miscarriage, adultery--it's all here and it's a tasty treat indeed.
John Forsythe is the very image of corporate power and Linda Evans is a modern-day Melanie Hamilton, sweet and kind but with a steely resolve when it comes to family. But it's Joan Collins who walks away with the show. She doesn't get her "look" until about the 8th episode, and when she does it's a flashback to that super-sophisticated 1940s Hollywood glamour. She wears her designer hats and turbans like a true diva, and delivers her acid-dipped lines with great style and flair. You just can't look at anyone else when she's on screen.
Also, given our country's dealings in the Middle East, the show's setting in the business of oil gives it a very
contemporary feel. After nearly 30 years, it's amazing how little the storyline has dated.

Season two of Dynasty gets better and better with the arrival of superbitch Alexis! Glamour, elegance, great costumes and a lot of bitching. Fabulous serie.
Why, oh, why does it take sooooo long to release season 3 to 9???
Dallas is already at season eight and even "Alf" is completely released on DVD?!?! The studio seems to forget that Dynasty was at one point the number 1 show on TV!!! And all the fans are still alive and waiting to buy it. And it was even more popular than Dallas here in Europe. So, please release the other seasons and don't forget to release the two seasons of "The Colby's".

I just read an article about how the Shapiro's (Dynasty creators) were good friends with Harding Lemay (Another World writer from 1976-1980). The name Carrington was "borrowed" from Iris Carrington from AW and the Krystal, Blake, Fallon triangle was mirrored after Rachel, Mac and Iris. Some of the scenes in Season One of Dynasty were so familiar with scenes on the Classic daytime soap Another World. Claudia having to reveal that she had an affair with Steven on the witness stand was very similar to Mac discovering he wasn't the father of Rachel's baby on AW. Great soap writing on both shows.
