Dynasty: Season Four (DVD)

Epitomizing the glamour and decadence of 1980s Reagan-era America, DYNASTY was essentially a primetime soap opera characterized by campy, melodramatic plotlines, as well as by Joan Collins's magnetic performance as the conniving Alexis Colby. She is divorced from Blake Carrington (John Forsythe), a fabulously wealthy oil magnate who marries his secretary, Krystle Jennings (Linda Evans), at the show's inception--while the jealous Alexis schemes to do everything she can to destroy their union.
