[QUOTE="Werewillie Oleson, post: 30394, member: 8"] That may be true, but that wasn't the essence of Dynasty, and also not the quintessential difference between Dallas and Dynasty. From the very start, the Carringtons were presented as America's high society, the biggest and the best. Ewing Oil (and Falcon Crest, for that matter) were family businesses, while Denver-Carrington (and later the even bigger Colby Enterprises) were more like conglomerates (despite the lacklustre business storylines). Ranches like Southfork were their holiday homes. Dallas looked 70s country & western, JR ruled Dallas the way Titus Semple ruled Truro, and Dallas' idea of [I]mondain[/I] was Miss Ellie and Sue Ellen going to town. [/QUOTE]
