The Dynasty Quiz

[Ked]

No. She wanted to be slathered in whip cream and spat on. But Spelling too prim to accommodate her, so he called Joan instead.

Which male cast member was ragingly gay when the series started but switched over to the ladies entirely by time the show ended?

....is this a serious question? Or are you talking about which male CHARACTER? Because if it's the latter, the answer would be Steven Carrington.

But the only CAST MEMBER that I know who was confirmed to be gay was Gordon Thomson.

That's John James but it's only a rumor you shared with us. I don't think rumors could be used during a quiz.

It's like when Gordon Thomson stated he had an affair with a man playing his rival during his "Dynasty" days, we could jump to the conclusion that it was Kevin Conroy but that's not fact.

But I never said who it was. You're blaming me for your own guilty gossip-conscience (hyphenated).

Besides, everything on this site is rumor (except that Victoria Principal turns 80 on Saturday).

And if you think the John James story is just "a rumor", then you have absolutely zero objective instincts whatsoever.

Instincts are objective?
That's the first new thing I learnt in 2026.

Yes, instincts are objective.

Impulses are subjective (not to get personal).

Hope that helps.

 

[Willie Oleson]

Well, I kinda understand that instinct is not subjective, because there's no free will or preference involved, but doesn't the "objective" adjective inherently suggest that "subjective" is the alternative when the alternative is non-existent?
In other words, isn't "objective" redundant and even a bit misleading when you talk about instinct? (hence my confusion).

In other and much more important words: why are you trying to gaslight us?

I forgive you.

Meeeeeeeee??? Youuuuuuu!!!

 

[Willie Oleson]

I forgive you.

I believe you honestly forgive me, which makes it all the more frightening.

Trump has learnt from the best, or so it seems.

Meeeeeeeee??? Youuuuuuu!!!

The typical reaction of a true gaslighter. Everyone here can see it, and they will testify accordingly.
My stance on the issue remains. If instinct is inherently objective then "objective" should not be used as an adjective. It's like saying "wet water".
It's confusing and it makes us question our sanity.

 

[Ked]

Maybe somebody else should post the next question.

Okay --- what?

Trump is my fault??

What is typical of a true gaslighter is their projection of their gaslighting.

Which is what we call double gaslighting which, in most countries, is taken -- rightly or wrongly -- to be chronic flatulence. Everyone will testify accordingly.


Gaslighting: the practice of psychologically manipulating someone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning.

 

[Snarky Oracle!]

What did the ABC executives, hoping to have their own DALLAS, do after they'd first screened the 3-hour DYNASTY pilot in late-1980?

 

[GillesDenver]

They asked for action scenes that were not in the script : hence the rig's explosion at the beginning of the pilot (that served zero purpose). As a result, the scene with Matthew coming to his mother's house to pick Lindsay up was edited out, as the original ending scene of the pilot which featured Walter and Matthew baptizing their rig "Lankershim - Blaisdel #1".
