[QUOTE="Lankershim Blasdel 1, post: 294919, member: 35205"] It’s true Dominique and Crystal both have had some real development character and story wise . A third recast finally getting its grounding and the Dominique character came in down on her luck wearing ridiculous outfits like they did to Alexis early on( does the CW like to clown older actresses) and a cardboard one dimensional character. If only the powers had Alexis evolve, Blind love for her son withstanding , this character is so gullible, one thing that iconic character was not. (Guilt or not) She fell so easily into Adam’s plot to frame her. Alexis Carrington played by Joan Collins who close to 50 and beyond turned a show that was going to get cancelled into a worldwide phenomenon in the 1980’s and here we are discussing it in 2021. The CW version had a couple of good scenes in the early introduction , besides the trailer living, but quickly turned her starting in season 2 into a desperate quirky, dumb blonde clown. At least early on she still wanted power and her ex husband, family and position and had the rivalry with the young new wife, when crystal 2 showed up that rivalry didn’t work with C2 not being his wife and now it’s non existent with C3, but season 3 and 4 I don’t know her characters motivation. That’s why I thought inheriting Jeff’s tech company would give her some direction and being such a ditz having to hire a young genius maybe named Dex to help her run it would get the character out of this funk.
