[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 63101, member: 57984"] Absolutely right. As flawed and disappointing as DYNASTY quickly became, the threat that it presented to DALLAS early on made the older serial better, I'm convinced. (For a while). To say nothing of eventually better dressed. And I'm equally convinced that Victoria Principal's acting, which seem to awaken from its coma, as of Spring of 1982 (and never slipped again) was in response to all the Linda-and-Joan coverage that Season 2 of DYNASTY was getting, when DYNASTY was actually still good... I think Victoria looked at them and intelligently asked herself: [I]'What are they doing that I'm not?'[/I] And as a wily business decision, she made herself more focused, much more so, in front of the camera. (Sadly, Linda Evans did exactly the opposite). So DALLAS learned from the competition, and DYNASTY seemed not to. [/QUOTE]
