Dynasty - The 1 Season
Aaron Spelling's addictive
primetime soap opera, Dynasty, ran for
nine seasons on ABC, a saga of the rich and
super-rich, family feuds and betrayals, class
conflicts, revenge, corruption, and power. The
13 episodes included in this first-season boxed
set introduce a wide range of characters (quite
a few dispensed by season 2) in the orbit of oil
empire Denver Carrington and its acquisitive,
stop-at-nothing CEO, Blake Carrington (John
Forsythe, who was simultaneously providing the
off-screen voice of Charlie in Spelling's
Charlie's Angels). Of particular interest is
the way Blake and Denver Carrington's business
problems--a groundswell of anti-American
sentiment in oil-rich Arab nations, the recent
energy shortage in the U.S., disagreement about
developing alternative fuel sources with tax
dollars--are a window onto real-world events
when Dynasty debuted in 1981. |

Dynasty - The 2 Season
"That's a lie," an outraged
Blake Carrington, on trial for murder, insists
to his attorney, "She's lying." "She" is Blake's
despised ex-wife, who has resurfaced in court to
testify against him. And Blake, you'd better get
used to it, because as Dynasty's second season
unfolds, perjury will be the least of her
offenses. Joan Collins joined the cast as the
vengeful, scheming and manipulative Alexis
Carrington and immediately put Dynasty on the
map as a formidable ratings rival to Dallas. It
doesn't take long for Alexis to literally make
herself right at home. She moves back into her
former art studio on the Carrington estate and
insinuates herself in the tumultuous lives of
her ruthless ex-husband ("'Don't' and 'Can't'
are not in my vocabulary," he proclaims), his
"ever so noble" new wife, Krystle (Linda Evans),
her sexually confused son, Steven (Al Corley),
and her spoiled, resentful daughter, Fallon
(Pamela Sue Martin). |
