Been re-watching Dynasty and have now intermixed The Colbys in broadcast order.
I had totally forgotten what a slog that Rita/Krystal storyline has been, hoping it wraps up cause it’s annoying the hell outa me haha. It was fun for a moment but it has went on far too long.
Purchased Dynasty Season 4 on a whim from apple tv. Stated HD in site.
Watching The Voice Part 1 ….
Specs doesn’t note anything about being in HD and doesn’t look that great… black crush for sure (which is normal for anything I stream)
Looks like Standard Def to me.
Those do look great, just sometimes with streaming you get a lot of macroblocking and other digital issues, so that’s why I’m a bit more cautious.
For instance streaming HBO’s recent season of True Detective was a bit mixed. Many dark sequences were blocky messes. Lacked much of a black or grey...
Loos like the series is on Apple. Tech specs indicate it as HD but curious if their files would best the US Dvds. Usually streaming doesn’t always looks the greatest for me, but interested if they are a lot better looking.
Wish we could get a Blu-Ray full series set.
Wow that looks awful and no one looks like anyone from the original. In fact they should have named the show something else changed the names etc and made it original. It will fail miserably besides the fact it was made for CW
I tried to keep an open mind and have fun with that preview but the...
I understand that but Jeff is a grown a** man! That is why I found it so ridiculous. But moments like that make the show so rewatchable.
I just love the show though at the season 2 point because they haven't sucked the life out of Fallon's character yet. I think once she got pregnant and had...
I've been rewatching the series and midway thru Season 2. I got to the episode where Blake tells Jeff Colby he would like to adopt him and almost spit my soda out all over the place. I just love how crazy this show is. :)
Those look nice. (of course we always hate those ratings logos on spines and covers. But Yeah I did own some of the UK DVD sets, I had a few with nice slipcovers also. Those looked good. But I like those nice tick spines on the UK sets. Of course they didn't squeeze out every penny like CBS did...
i recall a few years back coming across a Season 2 set at a big lots or one of those places for like $7.00 I already owned it and it was mint condition I wanted to buy it for a friend but sadly I know no one who really likes the show so I left it on the rack.
those are good finds though for the...
I'd imagine they probably would release some multi season sets esp if they can sell them initially as exclusive to certain retailers like WalMart, Costco etc.
Side note it is nice to have all of the pilot on ONE disc without having to flip it for the remainder of the pilot.
Also decided I...
Can you confirm if the commentaries were carried over? I think the old FOX dvd set had a few interviews on it unless I am mistaking it for another season.
I recall those days and years of buying each season and volume of the Dynasty DVDs. I bought every release the day it came out and I watched Season 1 more than any other season because it took forever for that Season 2 set.
It's just great to finally be able to own all the seasons even if the...
I doubt they will do a complete series box set for Dynasty. They could have issued it same day as this season 1 re-issue since the only thing they would have need to create would be the box set. No use having fans buy Season 1 for the first time or like many of us again (to replace the flipped...
Curious if the original flipper discs for the FOX Release of season 1 were just single layer? If so then it would make sense that the disc count remain 4 discs if they used dual layered single sided discs.
Anyone else excited to finally get the first season of Dynasty on DVD on single sided discs? Yes I loved the classic Shiny Sparkling DVD case artwork but we can say goodbye to those flipper discs!

I started re-watching the series last weekend and breezed thru the first season episodes. I missed Matthew the most once season 2 hit. I like Claudia at times I just wish they didn't have her character so back and forth I liked it when she was together. I hated that the show and writers kept...
Forget Emma Samms I say beg Pamela Sue Martin to come back as Fallon and Collins and Beacham for sure. They could do a short mini series / season reboot possibly 6-8 good episodes and see how it goes. I agree slightly with Samms that a reboot would cheapen the show but if done correctly it could...
From what I recall the U.S. region 1 releases for those seasons weren't remastered. From what I recall the quality was bad, they just released them without any remastering. am I wrong?
I finished the series yesterday. It was a great show. I love how fast many of the storylines moved, but agree some of them would drag. I didn't mind that Michael Parks character was revealed quickly because he didn't really get to say much until the reveal and I think his character was great on...
Brian I love your post but I am starting Disc 3 of S2 this evening. So I had to avoid most of what you typed for now. I really loved Season 1 we had great Sable slapping / shot gun moments. So far I like season 2 but no slapping has happened!
I do think the Bliss (I do like her character)...
After reading Brian Himes post regarding Season 1
I'd like to add...
I LOVE Stephanie Beacham as Sable, I don't think anything she does except for Constance was wrong. I wanted her to get everything she deserved. I think Katherine Ross is great, however I hate the character of Francesca...
I wish Pamela Sue Martin would have reprised her role as Fallon. I can't fault Emma Samms I just loved the original Fallon but I will say the storylines were probably boring PSM to death and I felt like they took away all that fire she had at the start of the show.
I'm watching the final disc of Season1 of The Colbys and this show is really top notch.
Stephanie Beacham is just awesome on this show. the slaps, the shotgun blasts it is all great fun. I could listen to hear read the telephone book.
Great Joan Rivers interview with Stephanie
Started the show. Intereting to see the Warner logo at the end of each episode. :-)
On Disc 2 It is nice to finally see storylines that shot off of Dynasty that I was never able to see until now. I will say the Fallon storyline is so tired and yeah I know it goes even more Downhill but I think...
