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.

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.

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.
