Dynasty

DYNASTY GUYS JUST MIGHT SPILL THE BEANS!

What better place to have a Dynasty “reunion” than Palm Springs? Many fans of the iconic 1980’s series have retired there! Jack Coleman (he played Steven Carrington), John James (Jeff Colby) and Gordon Thomson (Adam Carrington) are premiering their new stage show called Our Dynasty: Tales From The Set at Oscar’s in Palm Springs on December first. They plan to reminisce about the fan favorite storylines, behind the scenes gossip, and unexpected situations. For example: what happened when Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Jackson paid a surprise visit to the set, and why was George Peppard REALLY fired? Don’t expect a lot of dish about Joan Collins because she is still VERY much alive and listening! Hopefully the 3 actors will have a few drinks pre-show and loosen up…

WE CAN ADD A LITTLE “DYNASTY” TO OUR DRAB WORLD

Die-hard Dynasty fans (you know who you are) are in for a pandemic treat on Zoom and everyone around the world can join in! The theme of the virtual cast reunion is to “celebrate the influence of Dynasty on pop culture.” Emma Samms (she replaced Pamela Sue Martin as Fallon Carrington on the show) organized the reunion – the first big one since the show went off the air in 1989. Some of the actors haven’t seen each other since the show ended. We’re told almost EVERY main character still ALIVE is participating. Nolan Miller’s fashions will be prominently featured and discussed. Al Corley and Jack Coleman, who both played the role of gay Steven Carrington (before and after plastic surgery-) will be there too. Linda Evans is very excited about it and EVERYONE is counting on Joan Collins to participate. (We bet she will – isn’t she the most successful cast member?) Heather Locklear volunteered to reminisce about her time on the show. The event is for a good cause: Emma Samms put it together to raise money for long covid research. She caught covid a year ago and has been suffering the long term effects ever since. A hospital in England is researching long covid and the Dynasty reunion will raise money for the hospital.

PICTURE ALEXIS CARRINGTON SHOPPING AT IKEA

Can you imagine Dynasty star Joan Collins eating Ikea’s Swedish meatballs? When she posted this photo on Instagram, Joan confessed that she had been scolded by a security guard when when was reading the menu at an Ikea restaurant in France. She was wearing a plastic face shield instead of a mask and was told that a mask was essential. She was obviously miffed, but pulled on a mask under the shield. We are totally amused at the idea of Joan Collins eating in the discount cafeteria at Ikea! Currently, the still playful Joan (who is now an unbelievable 87) is stylishly isolating with her 55 year old husband Percy in St Tropez.

BLAST FROM THE PAST: LINDA EVANS AND PATRICK DUFFY IN MONACO

No sooner did The National Enquirer write about Dynasty star Linda Evans “Living out her days alone as a recluse” than Linda turned up at a Princess Grace tribute in Monaco with pony-tailed Dallas star Patrick Duffy. (TWO 80’s primetime soap stars!) Linda DOES live on a 70 acre ranch in Washington state -she moved there to be closer to JZ Knight, a “spiritual advisor” who has been described as a cult leader. Knight claims to “channel” a 35,000 year old “spirit” who gives advice. She may lack common sense, but Linda has always been an exceptionally nice and kind person – especially with fans. Nice to see she’s out and about…

IT TURNS OUT ALEXIS CARRINGTON AND SUE ELLEN EWING ARE FRIENDS!

Dynasty diva Joan Collins (Alexis) and Dallas diva Linda Gray (Sue Ellen) actually had dinner together last night at Craig’s. Back in the day these women were highly competitive. The 80’s soap stars are currently both enjoying a resurgence of roles for mature women in Hollywood, thanks to cable. Linda is appearing for the second season on a soap called Hilton Head Island and Joan does occasional guest spots on shows like American Horror Story and Hawaii Five-O. Of course, Joan is always working on a book of some kind- she’s churned out 18 publications already.

NICOLLETTE SHERIDAN IS ANYTHING BUT DESPERATE

We love celebrities who love their dogs and aren’t too self-important to walk them. Nicollette Sheridan’s husbands and boyfriends may come and go, but her dogs always remain first in her heart and she takes them everywhere. The former Desperate Housewives star has some big shoes to fill with her job on the CW’s new Dynasty. She’s playing the Joan Collins role of the glamorous and manipulative Alexis Carrington. A major fringe benefit is the fact that Alexis has the most fabulous wardrobe…
