DYNASTY REUNION: CATFIGHTS & CAVIAR reunites original series
stars Joan Collins, Linda Evans and John Forsythe to pay
tribute and celebrate the long-running series "Dynasty," one
of the most popular series in television history, to be
broadcast Tuesday, May 2 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the
CBS Television Network. The legendary cast will gather
together at the Filoli Mansion in Northern California, which
was the home of the show's billionaire hero, Blake Carrington,
and his infamous family. Al Corley, Pamela Sue Martin,
Catherine Oxenberg and Gordon Thomson also return.
Premiering 25 years ago in 1981,
"Dynasty," which ran through 1989, exposed the saga of a
wealthy oil business family and the conflicts that constantly
arose between two huge corporations: Denver Carrington, owned
by patriarch Blake Carrington, and the Colby Company, owned by
his ex-wife, Alexis. John Forsythe played Blake Carrington
and Linda Evans played his former secretary and current wife,
Krystle. Joan Collins played Alexis Morrell Carrington Colby
Dexter, Blake's volatile ex-wife and business rival. Al
Corley was seen as Steven Carrington, Blake's openly gay son,
while Gordon Thomson played Adam Carrington, his son who was
kidnapped in childhood. Pamela Sue Martin played Fallon,
Blake's pampered and spoiled daughter, and his fourth child,
Amanda, who was hidden from Blake by Alexis, was played by
Catherine Oxenberg.
Each cast member will reminisce
about the time spent making the series and the scenes that
they most treasure and enjoyed. Show creators Esther &
Richard Shapiro, as well as famed fashion designer, Nolan
Miller, will also be on hand to talk about how the show and
its style evolved over the years. Film clips of scenes from
the show will also be seen.
During its nine season run,
"Dynasty" was one of the most popular primetime soaps,
spending three seasons ranked among the top five programs,
peaking at Number One in its fifth season averaging 25.0/37.
