Dynasty Discussion Thread

Season 4 and after all these years, Alexis/Joan remains the best thing to happen to this show!  

 

Dex was everything all those years ago.  Today, ugh!  

 

Peter de Vilbis.  What a putrid slimy character and not in a good way.  I read up on the actor and Dynasty was just a check to him as you can clearly see in the acting.  

 

Colby has never been anything but an irritating little twit.  Can't wait for her exit.  

 

Fallon's edge is completely gone.  No wonder PSM left.

Season 2 and season 9 were the only times that character, soap, and OTT had a good balance.

 

The krystle/Alexis brawl in season 2 worked because there was good motivation for the fight.  All the other fights were done for shock without proper build up or motivation.

 

I wish Fallon kept her edge and stayed a gray character....not evil nor goody goody.  Season 1 to 2 and season 9 had the right shading to her character.

Season 4 may be one of the worst. Peter de Vilbis AND Krystle's assistant at Denver Carrington were two of the worst characters in the series' run. The writers no longer knew what to do with poor Mark. Also, Kirby always got on my nerves. I can tolerate her in Season 3 but in Season 4, I just want to smack her in the face every time she speaks.

Awful, awful writing (especially the first clip), but seeing Al Corley again my heart went right out to him, the way it always did. Jack Coleman may have been a better overall actor but he was never believable as Steven. I wonder if he has played any gay characters since. 

 

Whoever cast this Bart must have had an eye on gay porn couples of this era because he and Steven have that type of look, which sort of adds undertones that you sure weren't going to get anywhere else in those scenes...

Gordon Thomson always had an ivy league educated way of speaking. Like David O'Brien on The Doctors. In the interview it seems like he is becoming a recluse, but still speaks/is friends with his Dynasty co-stars. It also seems he has developed a friendship with Al Corley who he didn't get a chance to work with on the show. He mentions him in the interview and there are several photos of them at events together. I have also seen Al & Jack Coleman together in several photos.

Thanks for the clips. The Hotel promo features James Brolin and Mrs. Brolin #2 Jan Smithers. The Fall Guy promo reminds me that Doug Barr and Heather Thomas would have been great on one of the prime time soaps after FG ended.  

 

Shea Farrell from Hotel might have made a good replacement for Al Corley as Steven. Tom Schanley who later appeared in the short term role of Josh on Dynasty could have played Steven as well.
