Agree, I think the series would have been more popular if Pamela Sue Martin would have returned. Emma Samms tried but, she just was even similar in anyway to PSM. I also thin there should have been more crossover with the two series and left Colbys in its original slot after "Dynasty".
When they syndicated the series they should have added "The Colbys" when they spun it off into the package "Dynasty". They could alternated one episode of each and gone back and forth.......
I never understood, why the loose ends from "The Colby's" were never completed on "Dynasty" ? And if view the seasons of "Dynasty" now the series for three seasons don't actually make sense. Jeff And Fallon are missing in two seasons of "Dynasty" , but referred to ? Looking back they should...
Sable was being groomed to take over as Collins wanted out as did Evans. Very unfortunate they canceled it would love to have seen the cliffhanger resolved and where the show went!
The Krystal/Rita disaster was clearly the beginning of the decline of the series not to mention the exit of Pamela Sue Martin. Then throw in The Colby's spin off drained energy from the storyline along with unrealistic plot-lines like Moldavia. The decline started with those weak links in the...
Never liked ES she was weak she had no charisma to me whatsoever in turn that was the problem with Colby's from the get go!
If PSM would have return it would have been a hit!!
What a lame idea leaving Sable and Monica out then bringing back Miles ? Made no sense whatsoever and should have left Adam out the replacement was not similar in any manner! Then the subplot with Alexis was bizarre..,
Just got the "Colby's" DVD have watched the first disc. Looking back 30 years if you watch " Dynasty" as a stand alone it must contain holes in the storyline and not make sense as Jeff leaves and Fallon is missing from the series? I have not seen any of Dynasty since it's original airings. But...
Very well stated summary of the 80's soap genre. A few things to add is somewhere I read and not sure if it was on this forum or another there was a tentative summary of a third season outline of what was planned for a Colby's third season. I think it was on a soap forum there were all sorts of...
It's all been said before however "Colby's" should have folded into "Dynasty" and continued it might have saved "Dynasty" sooner and given them more storylines to work with season eight! Season eight was weak and tiring to watch. Ross, Heston and the core from the "Colby's" would have been...
So bizarre two siblings on a series no interaction. Was that with Oxenberg or Cellini ?? Even stranger two children that disappeared at childhood the voila reappeared Adam and Amanda...
Many unanswered questions in the Colby's finale were unresolved. Never understood why the network put it up against "Cheers"... Should have been on as originally slotted after Dynasty not the following evening. Plus it didn't helped that Collins refused to appear on the series...

Never liked Kirby, Claudia, Leslie, or Sammy Jo and Amanda. Amanda was the silliest storyline ever another missing child ... I can see one child disappearing but two ??
The storylines were so ridiculous that half the time they never made sense!
The best seasons were 1,2,3 and the last...
