Dynasty

A sweeping chronicle of a wealthy Denver oil dynasty led by patriarch Blake Carrington, his former secretary and wife Krystle, and their children: Adam, who vanished in childhood after a kidnapping; Fallon, pampered and spoiled; Steven, openly gay; and Amanda, kept from Blake by his conniving ex-wife Alexis. Much of the series centers on the clash between two corporate giants: Blake’s Denver Carrington and Alexis’s ColbyCo, driving the drama.
