[QUOTE="Werewillie Oleson, post: 332931, member: 8"] I think the campiest aspect of Dynasty is the OTT glamorous wardrobe but since it looked as if it wanted to [I]indulge [/I] the viewers with that fantasy I don't think it was sold as seriousness, and therefore it didn't really fail. One could argue that it resembles the kitsch-pop production values of VOTD, but again, kitsch isn't exactly the same as camp. I guess Mommy Dearest failed spectacularly to convey the (allegedly?) tragic aspects of Crawford's life because it looks so funny. DYNASTY had those moments too but I'm not sure if the worst parts actually involved Joan Collins, ironically. The "take this junk, and your blonde tramp" makes perfect sense to me. It also worked for DALLAS, didn't it? [/QUOTE]
