Dynasty

[Bouchard]

Who here has seen it? i watch the marathons every sunday morning. it's a really good show!

I used to watch Dynasty with my mother when i was a kid in the 80's. Michael Nader used to be Joan Collins boyfriend on the show. Michael also played on All My Children as Dimitri & he was Erica's man & Edmund's brother. What channel does Dynasty come on now on cable? Is it the soap opera station?

I watched Dynasty for the first time today (I got SoapNet on Friday). I like it a lot! It was great.

isiahthomas: Yes, SoapNet airs Dynasty.

Well I've been watching it for over a month and I still think it's great, lol. On Wednesday Diahann Carroll's first episode airs. I'm looking forward to it. I wish Pamela Sue Martin hadn't left after season 4. I think she's great as Fallon, and I'm looking forward to SoapNet eventually getting back to season 1 and 2, since I hear PSM was at her best then. I've seen an episode of The Colbys, and Emma Samms did a good job as Fallon in it but I don't think she was as good as PSM.

I've watched since SOAPnet started airing it back in November, have almost every episode on tape, lol.

Pamela Sue Martin WAS Fallon. Even though I'm a guy, I think I can enjoy a good soap, lol. Anyway, Emma Samms was good as Fallon, but she overracted at times (At least she did on "The Colbys", I've never seen her as Fallon on "Dynasty") and there was just such a character difference between Pamela and Emma.

For some reason, I've always liked Pamela Beller (Claudia). Both Beller and Sue Martin leave at the end of the fourth season. I'm looking forward to seeing Diahann Carroll's first appearance.

I wonder if SOAPnet will air the reunion movie after the series' rotation ends. I ask because SOAPnet has yet (at least to my knowledge) to air Knots Landing: Back to the Cul-de-Sac.

I'm also still waiting for SOAPnet to finally acquire Dallas. That's the one primetime soap missing on their lineup that needs to be added. Melrose Place would be nice too, but I can't see that on SOAPnet any time soon.

Do you mean Kathleen Beller (Kirby) or Pamela Bellwood (Claudia)? Beller is the one that leaves after season 4, Pamela Bellwood stayed until 1986.

LOL. I'm so out of it tonight. Pamela Bellwood. I actually like both you listed. LOL, how could I get so mixed up.

Anyway, yeah, for some reason, I always have seemed to really like Pamela Bellwood. Why I thought Bellwood left at the end of Season 4 is beyond me. I've read enough of the recaps and such I should know.

Sheesh, I'm so out of it tonight. Thanks for the corrections.

Yeah I like Claudia too. She's an interesting character and Pamela Bellwood plays her very well.

Pamela Sue Martin WAS Fallon.

I totally agree. Fallon didn't seem recastable to me. I thought they did a way better job recasting Al Corley with Jack Coleman as Steven.

I wonder if SOAPnet will air the reunion movie after the series' rotation ends.

I hope they do, since the reunion movie wraps up the show's storylines.

I'm also still waiting for SOAPnet to finally acquire Dallas.

It would be great if they did that. I used to want to watch Dallas more than Dynasty, but now that I've seen Dynasty I don't think I'll like Dallas better than it, lol. But I'd still like to see it.

According to TVGuide.com, starting March 31st Dynasty will begin to also air at 5:00PM on weekdays. I don't know whether it starts over or it's just a repeat of the 10:00am episode. [probably the 10:00am one, but I can hope ]. Knots Landing is gaining the 4:00PM timeslot that day also.

Wow, really? That makes it handier. Maybe they are just fillers for new shows? One can hope... lol. I know Knots Landing had a 2nd timeslot, and then Dynasty took over it's 2nd slot. Are these eastern times? Because on satellite, I get Dynasty at 1:00PM (three hours later than 10:00AM), Knots Landing at 2:00PM, etc.

So, if it's 5:00PM, than for me it's either 5PM or 8PM. LOL, confusing. I'm sure I'll figure it out though. Maybe SOAPnet.com has a new schedule up.

EDIT: Well, I doubt they are fillers (but I still hope they are). For me, Dynasty and Knots Landing will also air at 7:00PM and 8:00PM. Which is great. I find the move a bit odd, though. Not that I watch the other daytime soaps, but it pushes them back even later, unless more changes were made. SOAPnet.com hasn't added a new schedule, so maybe it isn't a permanent move?

Yeah, I was wondering why they were getting rid of their afternoon airings of the daytime soaps [although they added Port Charles at like 6:30PM I think]. I guess they thought the evening airings is enough, or maybe Dynasty/KL have been getting good ratings?

The 5:00PM airing is gonna be a repeat of the 10:00am airing, so on March 31st episode 100 ("That Holiday Spirit") is going to air at both times.

Well, it is in an interesting move. I'm still hoping those timeslots are just fillers, lol, but we'll see I guess.

I'm sure SOAPnet.com will have some info up soon. I'm not sure about the ratings, I'm guessing about the same thing you are.

Thanks for the scoop though!

It looks like they changed the SoapNet schedule so that Dynasty doesn't get the 5pm airing. *shrug*

I think they're skipping the weekend run on next Sunday because of the Soap Opera Digest Awards...The Colbys aren't airing that Sunday either.

NOTE: werm whenever I view the seperate listings for SoapNet on TVGuide.com for the week of April 7th - 11th, they list Dynasty as airing at 9:00am. However, when I actually click on the name it shows up as 10:00am. *shrugs* I guess that's just an error on their site.

[TVJunkie101]

Thanks for the update.

Weird. Why would they make the changes, then not? Is the schedule staying the same as it is now?

Darn, I was hoping those extra airings were fillers for new shows.

I've been meaning to ask, and this may be a dumb question, but what does "werm" mean? LOL.

I'm just thinking out loud, but maybe it's because they thought that the soaps might be frequently pre-empted due to the war in Iraq? *shrug*

LOL. Well it's hard to say. Here's the explanation I gave a few weeks back:

"Well that's hard to answer lol. I usually put werm when I'm either thinking or when I'm confused, though usually it's when I'm thinking. Technically werm means everything yet means nothing, but that's the two ways that it is commonly used by me, the other people who use members of the erm family, and the creator of werm, Beruche. That is the lesson on werm. "
