Members Vee Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 Age is not what it used to be. Show is the right age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 Add that the original Dynasty actually never made a huge deal about Krystle and Blake's age difference. That wasn't really portrayed as an issue on the original show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 I think what bothers me more (than Show's age) is the fact that Show, IMO, is dreadfully boring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 As a child, the age difference made zero impression on me, I just saw two grown-ups. Sure, JF was older than my grandfather, but LE never came across as young chippy wife either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 I think people forget, or just don't know, that Aaron Spelling originally wanted Angie Dickinson (age 49/50 at the time) for the role of Krystle. It was never supposed to be about the age issue, of course, getting Linda Evans meant that they could have a pregnancy in season two and later have her be pregnant with Krystina. That probably wouldn't have happened if Angie had taken the part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 29, 2017 Members Share Posted March 29, 2017 I'd love to have seen Angie Dickinson as Krystle no matter how good Linda Evans was in the part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AArredondo02 Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 I read that Deidre Hall and the late Elizabeth Montgomery were also considered for the Krystle role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 Angie Dickinson was also an early choice for Sable, which I really can't picture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 Faye Dunaway was also an early choice for Sable. Faye being Faye, she wanted her salary to match Joan's salary on 'Dynasty'...she was not pursued after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 I feel as though Angie Dickinson as Krystle would have been a bit stronger in regards to her interactions with Blake and Alexis. Not that LE was always a weak flower - lord knows she played Krystle's growing strength against Alexis wonderfully - but I'm not sure Blake would have been able to boss around AD the way he did LE. Linda always seemed a little bit older than she actually was. She was in her very late 30s at the start of the show but easily played 5-10 years older. I think the number one thing that they have to get right as far as ages are concerned is that Alexis and Blake were much more closer in age than Blake and Krystle were, BUT the Alexis/Krystle feud was never about Krystle being younger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted March 30, 2017 Members Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) All of these men are movie stars...and old as hell. I didn't see this posted: http://deadline.com/2017/02/dynasty-cw-reboot-cast-robert-christopher-riley-valor-charlie-barnett-1201970567/ Please register in order to view this content And this is a better picture of the guy (allegedly) playing Steven. He's certainly not ugly. But I am surprised they didn't go with someone younger and hunkier looking. The show has (at the moment) has exactly one straight white male lead. Pretty interesting.

Members KMan101 Posted April 2, 2017 Members Share Posted April 2, 2017 I think this has bomb all over it. And it may not ever even get picked up to series. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
