The American television series "Dynasty" ran from 1981 to 1989 on ABC. The main focus of the show was the power struggle between the two oil companies "Denver Carrington" and "Colbyco" and on the other hand the intrigue and problems of the characters. "Alexis Colby" wants to win back her ex-husband "Blake Carrington" by all means, but he already has already a new wife, the young "Krystle Jennings". The series enjoyed great popularity and received several awards, including four Golden Globes. Towards the end of the eighties, the ratings declined significantly, which is why the series was cancelled after the ninth season.
