Dynasty (TV series)
''Dynasty'' is an American prime time television soap opera that aired on ABC from January 12, 1981 to May 11, 1989. The series, created by Richard and Esther Shapiro and produced by Aaron Spelling, revolved around the Carringtons, a wealthy family residing in Denver, Colorado. The series was ABC's competitor to CBS's prime time series ''Dallas'', and starred John Forsythe and Linda Evans as oil magnate Blake Carrington and his new wife Krystle, respectively.〔
Ratings for the show's first season were unimpressive, but a revamp for the second season that included the arrival of Joan Collins as Blake's scheming ex-wife Alexis saw ratings enter the top 20.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ClassicTVHits.com: TV Ratings > 1981–1982 )〕 By the fall of 1982, it was a top 10 show, and by the spring of 1985, it was the #1 show in the United States.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ClassicTVHits.com: TV Ratings > 1984–1985 )〕 Other notable cast members included Pamela Sue Martin, Lloyd Bochner, Heather Locklear, Michael Nader, Diahann Carroll, Emma Samms, Ted McGinley, Rock Hudson, Kate O'Mara and Stephanie Beacham.
''Dynasty'' was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best TV Drama Series every year from 1981 to 1986, winning in 1984.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The 1984 Golden Globe Award Winners )〕 ''Dynasty'' spawned a successful line of fashion and luxury products, and also a spin-off series called ''The Colbys''. The series declined considerably in popularity during its final two seasons,〔 and it was ultimately cancelled in the spring of 1989 after nine seasons and 220 episodes. A two-part mini-series, ''Dynasty: The Reunion'', aired in October 1991.〔
==Beginnings==
Aaron Spelling, already well known for his successful ABC series, including ''Starsky and Hutch'', ''Charlie's Angels'', ''The Love Boat'', ''Fantasy Island'', ''Vega$'' and ''Hart to Hart'', took on Richard and Esther Shapiro's vision of a rich and powerful family who "lived and sinned" in a 48-room Denver mansion.〔 Esther Shapiro claimed that an inspiration for the show was ''I, Claudius'', a fictionalized depiction of the Julio-Claudian dynasty of Roman emperors. The working title for ''Dynasty'' was ''Oil'', and the starring role originally went to George Peppard. In early drafts of the pilot script, the two main families featured in the series were known as the Parkhursts and Corbys; by the time production began, they had been renamed the Carringtons and Colbys. Peppard, who had difficulties dealing with the somewhat unsympathetic role of patriarch Blake Carrington, was quickly replaced with John Forsythe. Filmed in 1980, the pilot was among many delayed due to a strike precipitated by animosity between the television networks and the partnership of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. ''Dynasty'' finally premiered on ABC as a three-hour event on January 12, 1981.〔
