Dynasty is an American prime time television soap opera that aired on ABC from January 12, 1981 to May 1989. The series, created by Richard & Esther Shapiro and produced by Aaron Spelling, revolved around the Carringtons, a wealthy oil family living in Denver, Colorado. Starring John Forsythe and Linda Evans as oil magnate Blake Carrington and his new wife Krystle, Dynasty was ABC's competitor to CBS's prime time series Dallas.
Ratings for the show's first season were unremarkable, ranking #28, but the second season arrival of Joan Collins as Blake's scheming first wife Alexis heralded Dynasty's rise into the Top 20. By the fall of 1982, it was a top ten show and by 1985, it was the #1 series on television.Dynasty was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best TV Drama Series every year from 1981 to 1986, winning in 1984.Dynasty spawned a successful line of fashion and luxury products, and also a spin-off series called The Colbys. Dynasty dropped from #7 to #24 during the 1986-87 season, and was ultimately canceled in May 1989 after a nine-season run. A two-part mini-series, Dynasty: The Reunion, aired in October 1991.

Plot: It's 1984, and Michael Jackson is king-even in Waihau Bay, New Zealand. Here we meet Boy, an 11-year-old who lives on a farm with his gran, a goat, and his younger brother, Rocky (who thinks he has magic powers). Shortly after Gran leaves for a week, Boy's father, Alamein, appears out of the blue. Having imagined a heroic version of his father during his absence, Boy comes face to face with the real version-an incompetent hoodlum who has returned to find a bag of money he buried years before. This is where the goat enters.

Plot: The story of Dynasty, a ballerina whose dream was to become famous at the local Vaudeville theater. Unfortunately, she slipped further and further away from reality. Now Dynasty is desperately searching for a new role both in her real life and as an actress. Haunted by her own nightmares and fantasies, there is only one frightening option left: the notorious Pygor and his outdated L'amour Toujours Theatre. After reading an ad placed by Pygor in the local newspaper, Dynasty is confronted by Pygor and his 'freak cabaret' and is about to face what will turn out to be the audition from hell. This film is about anarchism and tyranny, big moustaches and trashy track suits, cocktail parties and terrorism, French cheese and pantomime, new abstract realities and claustrophobic mazes. It is about Princess Stephanie of Monaco and Noam Chomsky. It is a film about nothing.
