What’s This TV Show About?

A CW soap opera, Dynasty stars Grant Show, Alan Dale, Elizabeth Gillies, Nathalie Kelley, James Mackay, Sam Adegoke, Robert Christopher Riley, Rafael de la Fuente, Brianna Brown, and Nick Wechsler. The drama centers on the wealthy Carrington family and the energy empire they must defend against the Colbys and other adversaries. Although Fallon (Gillies) is the heir apparent to father Blake’s (Show) company, she grows suspicious when she learns he is marrying the beautiful, much younger Cristal (Kelley). When Fallon sets out to expose the interloper as a fraud, her actions cost her her father’s trust, so she forges an alliance with his rival, Jeff Colby (Adegoke). Blood is thicker than water, but whether it’s dearer than oil remains to be seen.

Telly’s Take

Dynasty got off to a slow start in the ratings and the numbers haven’t gotten better. However, ratings are less important to The CW than the other networks. The series is based on an existing CBS property and Netflix releases the show internationally so, word is, a deal with the latter makes Dynasty profitable right out of the gate. For this reason, I suspect that a second season renewal is inevitable.  Subscribe for free updates on any Dynasty cancellation or renewal news.
