|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Dynasty: The Making of a Guilty Pleasure offers a satirical yet poignant look at how Dynasty, the television series, evolved. The show did not begin as an instant hit. In fact its creators, Esther and Richard Shapiro, initially set out on a noble mission to explore the effect of wealth on the American family and other important social issues. But despite an inauspicious start, the series eventually dazzled audiences around the world with one of TV history's most notoriously wicked female characters, Alexis Carrington; revolutionized the term "cat fight," as Alexis and Krystle went at it through lily pond and mud puddle; inspired millions of women to beef up their shoulder pads; and allowed people to forget about their own ordinary lives and drink in the champagne and caviar existence of a TV family dripping in jewels, but a little short on basic morality. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
