Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

OllieSuave-007 So as a little kid, I've managed to watch bits and pieces of this show. Though I didn't understand the story-line completely, it was fairly entertaining for me seeing all the drama, disputes and characters as the show centers on the trials and tribulations of the two feuding families of the Carringtons and the Colbys.It was interesting seeing the wealth and fortune of the families, and I've especially remembered the character of the spellbinding, vain, trouble-making, villainous Alexis Carrington Colby, played by Joan Collins. Not a bad show, overall.Grade B

Armand another Dallas. or, only, a baroque fairy tale with fascinating characters, with impressive clothes and not bad script. for many, seed of memories. picture of a society and courageous exercise to present forbidden aspects from every day. the series of shining Linda Evans and dark Joan Collins as fascinating Alex. a testimony about rich people, dramas as bricks of a family force and nice dialogs. fights, love, victories, fall. and memorable atmosphere. Dynasty is a legend of entertainment but little more than a monument. it was an experience for many of its viewers. maybe for ambition to be more than a piece from a long chain of entertainment. or for the desire to be itself. it remains special. a name. a fairy tale. an impressive cast.

blanche-2 Dynasty was a huge favorite of myself and my friends, and I have many memories of discussing the show with them either over the phone as it was happening or the next day. The Carringtons were created to compete with the highly successful Dallas and Ewings of South Fork, but Dynasty was never a copycat show. While Dallas certainly focused on the soap opera elements common to all these programs, J.R.'s sliminess in business was a focal point. Dynasty was about obvious, over the top luxury and family with some camp elements included that made it special. What I loved about Dynasty was that, at least in the beginning, it was never camp for camp's sake - the camp was part of the show. For instance, when the casting of Fallon changed, the portrait of the old Fallon that hung over the fireplace was quietly replaced with a painting of the new one, Emma Samms, that looked like a paint by the numbers from Woolworth's. And of course, Joan Collins' Alexis had camp built right into the character. And there was Steven's plastic surgery...so many happy moments.And no other show could boast the wardrobe of Dynasty, or the beauty of Linda Evans. I can still see her, bedecked in diamonds, walking toward Blake in a blue gown slit all the way up her thigh.For me, once they had Alexis disguised as a nun and the whole Moldavian thing started, the show became self-conscious camp, as these shows often do, and I lost interest. But certainly Dynasty was a bright spot in the '80s and for a time, you couldn't beat it.

Billie Rae Bates (BRBTVcom) Although ABC's "Dynasty" really began as a response to the wildly popular "Dallas" on CBS, the show became so much more over its original U.S. run, from 1981 to 1989.While "Dallas" had a bit of the earthy element of the ranch and the land and their value (think Miss Ellie) mixed in with the big-bucks oil industry, "Dynasty" was all glitz, all the time. After the show found its way during the first season, and Alexis arrived for the second, the characters went great guns in their portrayal of '80s capitalism and high living. We all wanted to watch. Maybe, in a way, we all wanted to live those lives. But would we, really? Hmmm ...Being a chick, I enjoyed the **fashions** and the intrigue as I watched the show originally in the 1980s. I was a teen who hadn't yet experienced the big world out there yet, and I think the show appealed to a lot of people my age for that same reason. I'm thankful that the show has been released on DVD now, because I talked to so many fans over the years who desperately longed for the videos (back before DVD)!
