Will Joan Collins go down as one of the most famous soap opera stars ever?”
Greatest Prime Time Soap Opera Ever! Finally the complete second season of “Dynasty” comes to DVD in August. After disappointing sales of the first season Fox gave the rights up to the DVD releases (thankfully) and Paramount now holds these rights. Originally airing from 1981-1982 the second season of “Dynasty” starts off with an electrifying story in which Alexis Carrington testifies at her ex husbands trial for the murder of their homosexuals son’s lover Ted Dinard. This starts the stories in full motion as Alexis becomes the antagonist of nearly every character in the show. The Alexis character was also modeled after Iris Carrington from daytime’s “Another World” who too was a rich female troublemaker. Joan Collins does a perfect performance as Alexis and it’s hard to distinguish if Joan becomes Alexis or if Alexis becomes Joan but whatever the rate Joan Collins makes this season and makes this show what it become that year. The series quickly jumped into the top 20 Nielsen Ratings
