Dynasty

The story revolves around a prosperous Denver family entrenched in the oil industry. At the helm is Blake Carrington, the family patriarch, alongside his wife Krystle, who was once his secretary. The Carrington children each have their own dramatic arcs: Adam, who was kidnapped as a child and subsequently lost; Fallon, who is indulged and spoiled; Steven, who is openly gay; and Amanda, who was kept hidden from Blake by his scheming ex-wife, Alexis. Much of the series centers on the rivalry between two major corporations: Blake’s Denver Carrington and Alexis’s ColbyCo.
