[QUOTE="Mustard, post: 340188, member: 46"] Dynasty's last season (Season 9) was probably its best for years in terms of plotting and character development, i.e. since Season 2. I don't really know what happened with Dynasty when it started to go wrong. It had a very good Season 1 and an excellent Season 2 bursting with future potential, but then it suddenly started going off the rails pretty fast in terms of the standard of plotting and acting. After Amanda Carrington arrives in Season 5, Seasons 5 and 6 were great in terms of being very captivating and OTT, but not really in terms of story plotting. Season 7 was the worst, being both poorly plotted and much duller. Dallas was just miles better than Dynasty in how it did plotting and character developments. The family and character dynamics were also far better on Dallas, enough to give the series loads of fuel for years and years. Dynasty had problems with the dynamics of their series from Season 3, but that got ignored because of the improving ratings. Knots Landing did the best job of not declining much. It was still a good show at the end of its 14 seasons, and had a happy ending with Gary and Valene living together on the Cul-de-sac, as Abby returns to live there also after a few years in Japan.
