@@ForeverCarrington My childhood shows were: "Dynasty" at 9pm on Wednesday night, "Knots Landing" at 10pm on Thursday night, "Dallas" at 9pm on Friday night, and "Falcon Crest" at 10pm on Friday night. Although I never really cared for Falcon Crest, I always watched the rest of them though.
I was on the set of flamingo rd w stella stevens, morgan fairchild in march 1982 and got to talk w morgan for quite a while in pasadena! That was a fun day!!!!
Technically they weren’t soaps, they were primetime sagas with seasonal breaks. Soaps in America air in the daytime and sell soap and cleaning products in the commercials.
linda when I see you or john forsythe I regret that this time is over. You two are the couple, even if it was only on TV, a couple that reflects what love should look like. I love you both so much
Ive been binge watching it lately...and actually found every episode/season, online for free. That show...just dominated. Granted, it didnt have the longevity of Dallas or Knots Landing or ER...but for a shlocky, insanely ridiculous night time soap, it became a heavyweight moneymaker...and you couldn't find a ton of folks who didnt dig it.

I love how Joan and John were so competitive over the spotlight. You could always see them vying at these People's Choice Award. One year when Joan got to podium first and started the address, John was so pissed off he refused to finish the acceptance speech.
Joan and John never got on and she didn't get on with linda evans so well either. Joan was just very competitive with the other actors as always wanted the limelight. They were all Wonderful characters and actors in their own way. I don't understand Joan not getting along with them though because John and linda were great friends for years after and it makes me Suspicious of Joan Collins that she didn't get on with them. I suspect Joan was a bitch with them all because it couldn't have been everyone else. She was clearly always wanting fame at any cost. She hasn't changed into her 80s! She's still clinging on to her big sprayed wigs and massive jewels and sparkly dresses as if it's still the 80s. She's doing "the 80s" in HER 80s!!!!!!!
@@stmichl9433 Joan felt that she saved the show from cancellation and so deserved all the attention. John sensed that and resented her for it, which is understandable.
I love Dynasty and the 80s! My screen is about to burst from the amount of sequins in this clip. Joan and Linda's shoulder pads don't even fit in the full frame as John Forsythe is accepting. Between Michele Lee, Joan and Linda there has to be a gallon of hair spray and a ton of make up! Absolutely wonderful!
@JRSueEllen Joan wore the dress in episode 83 or 84 at Fallons engagement party. Whats more fun for me is that i now own the dress and have it on display in my house ;)
My favorite soaps were Knots Landing and Dynasty. I remember when Knots Landing was first announced as a replacement series in Fall 1979 I thought the series was about UFO’s! Go figure! From its premiere in Dec 1979-May 1993 I never missed a single episode. I also never missed Dynasty from its January 1981 premiere to the end of season 7th season in 1987. The final 2 seasons I’d catch from time to time. 1987-1989. I did see the series finale. I have the series on DVD. I wish they’d release seasons 3 of Knots Landing. I watched Dallas from time to time and the first season of Falcon Crest then on occasion. I have season one and two of Falcon Crest.
@@djcooki320 and linda evans dress she wore in dynasty as well. Nolan Miller would dress them all On and off the screen and they were slower to Wear the clothes for awards nights and other events. Apparently they were all given the clothes after the series ended.

I preferred to watch Dynasty over Hill Street Blues. But the writing (writers) started to go downhill following the Moladavian Massacre. Some of the writers didn't even watch Dynasty and they based their wiritngs on scripts from one or two previous episodes (that sometimes had no bearing on the characters or the storylines). Almost every episode that one year had a different writer for each episode.
I loved season 7. season five should have gone into the season 7 storylines of Alexis and Ben bringing Blake down and Alexis owning a newspaper. I love the Moldavian Massacre but only two characters killed and the rest of the cast coming out in full makeup and hair and wardrobe perfect was silly. But what really killed season 6 was the Krystle twin storyline. it dragged on for ages and was completely implausible.
The Moldavian massacre was terrible!!!! I remember thinking it was awful even as a teenager. All Those dead bodies after the cliffhanger seems completely implausible back in the mid-80s. The best writing in Dynasty was always when they centred the action on business dealings: wills, takeovers, mergers and Alexis trying to take over Denver Carrington. When it veered too far away from those storylines outside of Denver it lost its soul. Denver was the main pivot point of Dynasty and it was critical the story stayed there. Once they got too many characters involved and too many implausible plot lines and outrageous antics it lost any "credibility". A soap still has to remain within the bounds of some kind of weird believability even though it can be outlandish. It must remain "real" with its own internal logic - but after the Moldavian massacre episode it lost all believability and went to hell in a designer handbag.
@@stmichl9433 yep totally agree ,Dynasty worked best when the stars of the show numbered just a handful (like 9 or 10) and kept the writing simple . I agree the business scenes were the best for me on the show- more drama/conflict, less cotton candy.
when she left Dynasty at the end of season four, I stopped watching. I began to not like the show or the story lines after that, the ones I did see without our sweet Fallon in them. The show was not the same without her
Joan was the reason behind Dynasty's success, pure and simple. Had she not joined the show not only would they not have been winning any awards in 1984 but they wouldn't even have been on the air. Forsythe was by all accounts a consummate gentleman so it wouldn't have hurt him to let Joan and Linda say a few words. Despite his trying to position himself as the star of the show Dynasty didn't have a single main lead like JR in 'Dallas', it had a central trio comprising Blake, Krystle and Alexis. And as Alexis was the show's chief antagonist and arguably its most prolific character, she had as much right to make a beeline for the microphone as John did, "charming female" or not.
@@adamcarrington2818 100 percent correct. Dynasty’s first season without Joan was not very good . She saved the show and they all owed her a debt of gratitude. Having been on the down turn of her career she wisely made the choice to milk all her Dynasty success for every bit it was worth and she deserved it .
1984.....dam I won't to go back to the 80s !!! Prince n Dynasty or Joan Collins - I thought she was the hottest and was surprised Prince didn't have a fling with her.
I guess each have their own but Dynasty had far more glamour if you were into that. The woman were just the bomb on Dynasty. I never understood why Susan Lucci didn't end up on Dynasty or at least guest star yet she did Dallas? ABC created Dynasty and Lucci was a star with ABC - I wanted to see Alexis battle Erica Kane and they both could have fought over Dex since Michael Nadar played loved interests to Alexis and Erica. Wow, Michael survived two divas.
Today's television can’t even touch the television we had in the 80's.
Indeed
I agree with you TV stinks today
I miss the American soaps from this era: Dynasty, Dallas, Knots Landing, Flamingo Road. I loved them all.
And Falcon Crest. They were all so good!

Thanks for the info. Not a chance though! Dynasty was a LOT more fun!
Gosh did you see that tension between John and Joan Collins., Or am i missing something here, i taught they all got along like a family.

RIP Dex

With all the shoulder pads, it looks like the ladies forgot to take the hangers out of the dress before putting it on.

Hill St. Blues.
Pamela Sue Martin???? :-(((
Where were Amanda and Fallon?
1984 was the year that PSM left Dynasty
@@dezideniro3514 this was during the 4th season, PSM was still on the show, probably didn’t appear since she was leaving and didn’t care.
@@sharronure3670 the actress that did Fallon chose not to appear. Amanda was created the season after this one.
what did it tie with
"Hill Street Blues".
Shoulder pads for months and years
Original soaps is the best the reboots are just the duplicated flop cannot succeed is successor .
I clearly remember how all the ladies thought Dex was a hottie. I'd have picked Mark Jennings over Dex Dexter any day of the week! 😄😄
John James was the hottest of the dynasty men any day.
Mark Jennings was hotter than hot. Dripping with testosterone. John James was a total beta pretty boy.
Joan in her book trashed him bad.
Who else won? They said it was a tie. 🤷😋
Gosh, Joan, is desperate to be seen and heard and up there first and craving the spot light. Ego is out of control.
RAH, She had no class! You would never see classy Linda Evans pulling that sh**.
1984.....dam I won't to go back to the 80s !!! Prince n Dynasty or Joan Collins - I thought she was the hottest and was surprised Prince didn't have a fling with her.
They should have written Collins out after season 3 she got her revenge what else was there for her,
nwlman What else was there but her in that show?
Dallas was better
I guess each have their own but Dynasty had far more glamour if you were into that. The woman were just the bomb on Dynasty. I never understood why Susan Lucci didn't end up on Dynasty or at least guest star yet she did Dallas?

Wow, Michael survived two divas.
Joan Collins is profoundly annoying.
Yes she is. Her John Forsythe hated her
I’m going through all the damn comments and why is no one talking about who the other so that time with them? This is so stupid to have a tie
