Overview 

Dynasty has 5 seasons. They started in 2017 and their last season was in 2022. Sadly Dynasty came to an end due to the fact that CW network was sold and many shows were not renewed which meant Dynasty was one of them. Dynasty’s overview: Fallon Carrington, the heiress, and star of the series Dynasty is upset to learn that her millionaire father Blake is engaged to Cristal, a competing family employee. Fallon joins forces with Blake’s adversary and former coworker Jeff Colby and goes it alone after her schemes to break up the pair backfire and cost her a promotion. The entrance of Cristal’s scheming nephew Sam, who develops a romantic interest in Fallon’s errant brother Steven, poses a threat to reveal her murky history. In the wake of Cristal’s allegedly murderous ex-boyfriend Matthew, the Carringtons unite, but Promotional apparent peace at the estate is short-lived. While the antagonism between Fallon and Cristal lessens, Blake’s deceptions put him at odds with Cristal and his kids. Michael starts dating someone else because he is fed up with waiting for Fallon to take him seriously. This only makes Fallon’s feelings for him grow stronger and pushes her into Jeff’s arms. Cristal’s past resurfaces in the shape of her sister Iris and Sam’s father, Alejandro, and Matthew’s pregnant widow Claudia recuperates at the home with a secret goal. Because of Sam’s criminal tendencies and Steven’s unstable ex-boyfriend, Ted, Sam, and Steven’s on-again, off-again relationship is complex.

Acting and Script

The acting in this show was phenomenal. Everyone in the show knew how to use their emotions and sometimes you forgot that they were acting. My favorite person was Elizabeth Gillies. She played Fallon Carrignton and she showed a lot of emotions and her facial expressions were always on point. One of the best plot twists towards the end was when steven finally comes back after not being in many seasons. Every Time I watched the show I always had Steven in the back of my head because the way he disappeared was a cliffhanger.
