The ultimate guilty pleasure show cashing in on the 80's mentality of "I want to be rich, and I want to be rich now!" Dynasty had it all, the big expensive mansions, the over-blown characters, the mall hair, those big shoulder pads! While the plot lines were often much ado about nothing (or who was in bed with whom), everyone tuned in to watch Alexis and Crystal battle it out in a fashion reminiscent of the WWF, thrashing around in a lily pond or throwing furniture at each other, all the while pulling each other's hair out by their dyed roots. More famous than the fashions were their cliffhangers at the end of each season. Can anyone ever forget the Maldavia Massacre? Blood spattered on everyone and a great way to eliminate everyone who's contract was not renewed. A true product of the fun, funky 1980's.
