Joimiaroxeu April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 Do rich people really have this many parties? It's like almost every episode they find a reason to throw a bash at the mansion. I don't recall the original series having so many parties. Why couldn't Adam get a tux that fit? Was Nicollette Sheridan a problem on the set or something? Seems to me having EG do this mimicry of her isn't quite complimentary. I guess it's cheaper though. Maybe Liz can play Cristal too. 1 1 Link to comment

AnimeMania April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 I don't know why they let Sam stay at the manor now that he is divorced. He is getting alimony but he doesn't have any expenses. Seems like the Carringtons are paying him twice. Read an article that said Nicollette Sheridan left due to a family matter. Here is an article about Liz Gillies getting the role of Alexis, Spoiler: Spoiler It's temporary.

LakeGal April 28, 2019 Share April 28, 2019 I don't understand Sam living at the mansion either. I am sure he wasn't paying for that party. I realize they like the character of Sam. But it makes no sense that he would continue to live there after splitting from Stephen. Link to comment

The producers have done a pretty good job of cutting all his ties (original Kristal and Stephen) to the other characters. If this was real life, of course he would not stay, but I tend to invoke the line from the Josie and Pussycats movie said by Alexandra when she is asked why she is there. "I was in the comic book." So Sami Jo remains on the show because he was in the original and they apparently don't want to lose the character. 1 Link to comment

sarkygal April 29, 2019 Share April 29, 2019 I’m more baffled by the fact that last episode Alexis was terrified of psycho Adam and her new Fallon face has somehow made her grateful and loving to the son who burned her face off. Then I remember this show shouldn’t ever require this much thought. 3 Link to comment

Why would Alexis be happy to have her daughter's face? Alexis doesn't seem to get that she looks like Fallon. She kept repeating that she looks like she did "5" years ago. The mask they put on Liz gives a really good "uncanny valley" effect, which tends to happen a lot when someone gets REALLY extensive plastic surgery, like Michael Jackson or the poor unfortunate Mickie Rourke. Quote Was Nicollette Sheridan a problem on the set or something? Seems to me having EG do this mimicry of her isn't quite complimentary. I guess it's cheaper though. EG says it's a tribute to the wonderful character that NS built, but I keep feeling Lady Gaga more than anything else. Spoiler It looks like it's just a placeholder until they cast another actress. It really does sound like NS does not want to come back, and after the season they gave her, I don't blame her. Quote Not to the normal observing eye, no. However, Fallon, Kirby, new Cristal, Blake and Anders all still think of him as family. He's been a brother to Fallon. He's good friends with new Cristal and Kirby. Lastly, Blake and Anders think of him as a son. He's also a link to the first Cristal. I feel like when the show realized that the actor, as cute as he is, simply did not have the sexual magnetism needed to play a gay male version of a vixen like Sammi Jo, they reversed course and made him more like a family member. Then it seemed like they were going to go with Kirby being the little troublemaking vixen, but then they reversed course on that and then decided to make her a tag-along to Fallon and Sam.

Artsda May 4, 2019 Share May 4, 2019 Alexis's new face is already over. Wonder who will play her when she returns. Fallon and Liam haven't had their first date yet, but she's saying his mom will be her mother-in-law again. Link to comment
Joimiaroxeu May 4, 2019 Share May 4, 2019 Oh come on. Fallon and Liam still haven't had sex yet? I think the show is just effing with us now. Remind me again: are we supposed to be rooting for Cristal and Blake? Please let Adam's evil chickens finally be coming home to roost. Nice curve ball with him and Liam's mommy though. 1 Link to comment
Fireball May 5, 2019 Share May 5, 2019 Adam. I don't understand him. Is he bent on making Fallon's life miserable because he's jealous she got the life he thinks he deserves and he's trying to make her life as bad as his was? Lima and Fallon still haven't slept together. I certainly hope the show doesn't go the route of Liam is really Adam that would be so creepy. Spoiler This isn't Game of Thrones! Yeah they haven't slept together, but they have made out and are apparently in love. On 5/4/2019 at 11:48 AM, Joimiaroxeu said: Remind me again: are we supposed to be rooting for Cristal and Blake?

Is he bent on making Fallon's life miserable because he's jealous she got the life he thinks he deserves and he's trying to make her life as bad as his was? I don't think it's necessarily that. I think he's bored and wants to play a chess game, basically. Life all seems like one big chess game to him. I think he's trying to figure out how to manipulate and control everybody around him, so that he can assume total control like a dictator or something. I feel like the cake thing is Adam's thing- he's showing that he can infiltrate and take down Fallon like it's a piece of cake, but Fallon takes the cake to show him that it's not going to be so easy. Thank god the Alexis face thing is done. Can we also bring back recast Steven? Maybe with Hank's face because I think Brent Antonello is pretty sexy?

In the time that she supposedly caught feelings for Liam, she got engaged to Michael and would eventually sleep with again after they had broken up. There is no drama for Fallon being with Liam. Meanwhile, Michael had just betrayed and set up Blake with the FBI. Link to comment

Jennabelle88 May 14, 2019 Share May 14, 2019 Adam really grates my nerves, and I have no interest in the Colby storyline whatsoever. I love me some Fallon though and am interested in seeing how her and Liam's relationship plays out. The sibling rivalry for Daddy's affection is a bit much, considering their ages. I could care less about what's going on with Blake and Crystal, but I do miss Alexis (not "Fallon Alexis") and I absolutely love Sam and Anders, especially together! 2 Link to comment
LakeGal May 14, 2019 Share May 14, 2019 I really don't care for new Crystal at all. I find myself wondering why she is even on the show.

JAYJAY1979 May 18, 2019 Share May 18, 2019 Sam isn't working cause the show isn't following how the original show handled the character..which was to have the character come and go. Alexis...such wasted potential...NS was capable..but the show forgot that she played Paige on KL..the fallon Carrington of that show.

Sam isn't working for several reasons. Firstly, he has no love life. This is a soap opera for fuck's sake. Why isn't a young, handsome gay man dating? Secondly, why doesn't he have a job? He could be CA's diversity director and bump into the Carringtons at the office. Thirdly, besides being a jobless eunuch, Sam has no character flaws. Again, this is a soap opera for fuck's sake, every character should have a fatal flaw. And you are so right, it's the writer's fault, not the actor's. Link to comment
nilyank May 19, 2019 Share May 19, 2019 I still think the mistake with Sam is that they didn't make him bi-sexual because they limited his options for fooling around. There was only going to be a certain number of gay characters introduced on the show and they would have eventually ended up in a story with Sam. Plus it is odd that he is still living with the Carringtons when his aunt is dead and he is divorced from Steven. Since he gave baby Danny back to his paternal grandparents, he doesn't even have the security of being parent to a Carrington child. Last season, he was working for Fallon as her assistant but now with the hotel hopefully he has a chance to do something except hang out in the mansion. Link to comment

JAYJAY1979 May 19, 2019 Share May 19, 2019 I also think it was a mistake making Sam into a gay male given the network, etc. Even the creator Esther S said it wasnt a good idea.

I think it's more like Sam is a secondary character whose main connections to the family (Kristal, Steven) were severed, and at the end of the day, the show is about the Carrington family, not their assorted hangers on. I mean, I think the best thing to have done would have been to send Sam off with Steven, not keep him around in C or D storylines that aren't connected to the main action. 2 Link to comment

ketose May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 I have to assume most of the Dynasty budget this season was spent on licensing "Gimme Shelter" for the last scene. I guess Adam was trying to take down Fallon by getting the divers. Even if he didn't know Trixie was there exactly, I'm sure he didn't know about the other guy. Frankly, I forgot about the guy Blake and Crystal killed. I'm guessing Liam isn't going to die, because Adam would have to go to jail for that. Jeff Colby's mother convinced him to move to the Bahamas to frame someone who isn't going to be framed. Does this mean Jeff doesn't have permanent brain damage either? Anders, Kirby and Sam now have their own dynasty. 3 Link to comment
LakeGal May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 I laughed when Fallon said she hoped her dad's next wife wasn't also a Cristal. I am hoping just that. I want a new Cristal. I do enjoy this show. It is just the right amount of fun and crazy. 5 Link to comment

Granted we know that Adam hit him over the head and stuck him away from a bit, but Liam came out dizzy and fell in the pool. Adam was right with his family the exact moment that Liam was drowning. Even if there were cameras to prove what Adam did, I think Blake would still protect him as he did regarding the Jeff matter. In fact, most of Adam latest schemes had been done in conjunction with Blake's knowledge and approval. Now if there ever bother to bring back Steven, then Blake will more than like turn on Adam, but probably forgive him much later in the season. Michael will probably get out of the FBI charges. I predicted that he found the second bag of money and destroy that as well. Plus Fallon promised to help him after what Blake did. Link to comment
skotnikov May 25, 2019 Share May 25, 2019 (edited) It reached the new heights of camp in the last episodes.
