A modernized reboot of the 1980s primetime soap follows two of America’s wealthiest families, the Carringtons and the Colbys, as they feud for control over their fortune and their children. Told primarily through the perspectives of two women at odds — Fallon Carrington, daughter of billionaire Blake Carrington; and her soon-to-be stepmother, Cristal, a Hispanic woman marrying into the WASP family — “Dynasty” not only features the glitz and gloss of extreme wealth, but also exposes the dark underbelly of a corrupt world built on backroom deals.

However, Blake Carrington (Grant Show) shocks his family by introducing them to Cristal (Nathalie Kelley), their stepmother-to-be. Now, Fallon engages in an all-out war against Cristal and her father, which leads her to partner with Blake’s biggest rival, Jeff Colby (Sam Adegoke).
