The Colbys
''The Colbys'' (originally titled ''Dynasty II: The Colbys'') is an American prime time television soap opera which originally aired on ABC from November 20, 1985 to March 26, 1987. Produced by Aaron Spelling, it was a spin-off of ''Dynasty'', which had been the highest rated series for the 1984–1985 U.S. television season.〔(1984–1985 Ratings – ClassicTVhits.com )〕 ''The Colbys'' revolves around another wealthy, upper-class family, who are relatives by marriage of the Carringtons of ''Dynasty'' and who own a large multi-national corporation. Intended to surpass its predecessor in opulence, the series' producers were handed an immensely high budget for the era and cast a handful of well-known movie stars among its leads, including Charlton Heston, Barbara Stanwyck, Katharine Ross and Ricardo Montalban. However, ''The Colbys'' was ultimately a ratings disappointment, and was canceled after two seasons.
==Premise==
On ''Dynasty'', presumed-dead heiress Fallon Carrington Colby (Emma Samms) reappears alive, suffering from amnesia and using the name Randall Adams. Drawn to California after recognizing the name "Colby," she meets playboy Miles Colby (Maxwell Caulfield), not realizing that he is the cousin of her ex-husband, Jeff (John James). A mutual business venture brings the Colbys of California to the Denver mansion of Fallon's father Blake Carrington (John Forsythe).〔Jason (Charlton Heston) and Constance (Barbara Stanwyck) are first seen in the ''Dynasty'' sixth season episode "The Californians" (October 9, 1985) and the rest of the Colby family are introduced a special two-part ''Dynasty'' episode called "The Titans" (November 13, 1985).〕
Set in Los Angeles, ''The Colbys'' focuses on the extended Colby family as Jeff relocates to California to start his life anew – and comes face to face with Fallon, now married to his cousin Miles. A fierce rivalry is sparked between Jeff and Miles, and the love triangle spans the series. Miles' father, billionaire Jason Colby (Heston), has a rocky marriage to the icy Sable (Stephanie Beacham), in part due to his longtime attraction to Sable's sister Francesca (Ross) – Jeff's estranged mother, and the former wife of Jason's deceased brother. Other characters include Jason's powerful sister Constance (Stanwyck), Miles' twin sister Monica (Tracy Scoggins) and their third sibling Bliss (Claire Yarlett).
In addition to Forsythe's Blake, ''Dynasty'' characters Adam Carrington (Gordon Thomson), Steven Carrington (Jack Coleman) and Dominique Deveraux (Diahann Carroll) also made guest appearances on the show between 1985 and 1986.
