THE DYNASTY WIKI is a collaborative community for the hit prime-time soap Dynasty, its spin-off The Colbys, and the 2017 reboot. Our wiki currently includes 912 articles, 3,250 images, and 2 active users. We may be a large wiki, but still we can only thrive and grow with YOUR contributions. This wiki is completely open to editing. Feel free to add new knowledge and facts in this growing database.

Please stay with us and take a journey back to Denver and the glorious 80s or move to Atlanta and the dirty sexy 2010s.

INTRODUCTION

Premiering as a three hour movie on 12 January 1981, the prime time soap opera Dynasty aired on ABC until 1989. During its nearly nine year run, Dynasty spawned the short-lived spin-off Dynasty II: The Colbys (1985-87) and gave rise to numerous licensed luxury products, including perfume, clothing, and bedding. Never before had television product licensing been so targeted to upscale adults. When Dynasty left the air in 1989, it also marked the demise of the prime time soap opera which had been a staple of television programming throughout the 1980s. Produced in part by Aaron Spelling, whose programs (e.g., Charlie's Angels, The Love Boat, Beverly Hills, 90210, and Melrose Place) have emphasized beauty, wealth, and glamour, Dynasty had proved the perfect metaphor for 1980s greed and excess. In declaring Dynasty the best prime time soap of the decade, TV Guide asserted its "campy opulence gave it a superb, ironic quality--in other words, it was great trash."
