Fallon was the bitchy step-daughter, but looking back she ALWAYS gave Krystle great advice about how things work in their world. I remember her doing the same on their wedding day. Fallon schooled her about the prenup agreement and the women coming to see who won Blake. It seemed bitchy to me when I was a child. But as an adult, I would gladly have a "Fallon" around to teach me "the game".
I think Fallon recognised her own hand in the game. It seemed like one of the many reasons she was so unhappy when married, as in that sort of conservative wealthy circle, she can be something of a star as a daughter, but once married, she would be considered a supporting character in things.
that's why PSM was the best Fallon... she cut you down calmly. Here she reminds Krystle that she's still working/middle class and not really part of the family. Blake isn't trying to do something nice for Krystle by buying her clothes (like she thinks) -- he's trying to dress up his trophy wife to make a good impression on investors.
I like how they did the makeup for Fallon and Krystle. Not overdone but enough to accentuate! They are both beautiful women and don't need more then that!!!
Most women know this, but some men have yet to learn. When a woman buys a new dress, coat, maybe a ring or new earrings, because she knows that when she is on her husband's arm, she is a reflection of him, some men appreciate that. Other, ignorant men, throw a fit over what the outfit cost! To those men: If your wife looks bad, so do you. If your wife looks good, other men respect you, admire you, and support you. It also doesn't hurt, that other people can also see that YOU treat your wife well, and respect her.
Pamela Sue Martin made the character of Fallon a complex personality. Not just a beautiful woman but a sophisticated woman who wanted the approval of her. da
They cast the right actress to play Fallon. I loved Pamela Sue Martin as Nancy Drew and Susan Shelby in The Poseidon Adventure. I hated the way Fallon treated Krystle because she was actually jealous that in her mind, Krystle was taking Blake away from her. Blake had enough love, if not more for all members of the Carrington clan (except for Alexis)!
I think it was wearing on her mentally. No one talked about it then but it's talked about more now. Those people on those shows usually work 12-14 hour days at the studio. They often have NO LIVES because if they're not rehearsing or filming the show, they are out promoting it. So it's a LOT more demanding than most people think. A lot of them get older and admit how those shows ruined their relationships/marriages; because the shows took over their lives. Everyone can't handle that lifestyle. But it also explains why some like - like Linda Evans - stayed single and childless.
The first sketch Krystle looks at remembers me of Diahann Carrolls Season 4 outfit at her first scene with Joan Collins in Alexis' penthouse ("... its burnt."). But Diahann wears full white, this sketch has a more beige color.
Emma Samms was hotter to me as far as looks but Pamela Sue was a better Fallon. I can see how Black and Alexis produced her. She could be strong and difficult but sexy and wise at the same time. She was the name Fallon. Just a great character when Pamela Sue played her
That would be the other way around. Evans' husband John Derek left her for Bo while they were all making a film together in Greece. John was 46, Bo 16. They had to stay in Germany until Bo turned 18 to avoid statutory rape charges in the U.S. Linda Evans is grace personified - she wasn't really acting when she played Krystal.
This show was great in it's beginnings because Martin was a brillint, natural actor. Her performaces were genuine/convincing/enduring/compassionate. Joan Collins was amazing but her over-the-top performaces eventually failed without the passionate, earthy performaces by Martin.
$300K for one season's wardrobe for someone in a wealthy family. That is probably a conservative number, even for the 80s. I wonder if the producers thought that having a more realistic number discussed on the show would cause an outcry from the middle class about how wasteful the wealthy are. I can just imagine part of the conversation now: "We don't want the French Revolution to happen in the US!"
In the 80's nobody batted an eyelash over that amount of money. The whole decade was so unreal, regarding extreme wealth. Reflected in tv series like Falcon Crest, Dallas and Dynasty and the spin off The Colby's. In the 80's mammon was king, and what everybody secretly hoped for. 💰💰💰💰💰💍💍💍💍💍
"I'm sorry Fallon, but this is not your concern" - Krystle had more class than that entire house put together, but that wasn't the end of it, Fallon answered back "You haven't exactly won everybody over in this house" with no respect just like her mother.
I don't really care for one Fallon over the other. They're from different periods. The first one was on a show just slightly better. So the actor had more to work with. Not that the writing was ever impressive. And by the second Fallon, the show got so bad, i'm sure the actors saw working on it as a punishment game xD
2:20 Fallon's head looks strangely pointy, like Oona from Disenchantment. The second picture the designer showed kind of looked like Princess Leia's white gown
The poors cut back during hard time that's why they are poor ! Damn , what does she expect the poor to do during hard time, buy a new house and start playing golf ?
They can go to Las Vegas and bet on their luck, which most of the poor won’t because it takes a lot of bluffing to win on the table. That’s why Fallon said the rich are different and I think she was right. This is one of the few dialogues in The Dynasty that has real substance in it, instead of just camp.
@@benleung6331 The rich can gamble because even if they lose they can still maintain a proper lifestyle and won't really suffer the loss. The poor can't gamble because every penny counts and if they lose one then they go hungry or they end up on the street. There is zero substance in that dialogue, this like when Karen Walker goes to the laundry mat, look at the drying machine and asks "where are the fishes" then Jack explains to her that people wear clothes wash them dry them and wear them again, and she replies "Well poor people are just plain clever, how come they can't make more money" Now that was hilarious because this was meant to be, but what Fallon said was just patronizing and condescending, and given that this is the poor people audience who made them all rich on dynasty, that was pretty insulting. I come from wealth so this should not affect me, but watching this from the perspective of someone wondering how to pay the rent next month or feed the kids, this must hit differently. Besides, what she said is not true. During hard times even the rich cut back. The only ones who do not cut back are the super rich, the top 5% but those are not affected by hard times, because they are the ones who create the hard times for others.
I got riuch because i always cut back. I never spend more than what i owned and always made sure that i spend no more than one quarter of the remaining of what i earned on things that were not necessary and only after paying the rent and the bills. Only a quarter of what was left after that, never a penny more. That7s how you get rich. Working hard, save up and not spend anything more than you can afford. And even today even though i do not have to worry about money, i only spend a quarter of what i earn every month. ( i do not have to think about the bills and rent anymore because i own my houses and i can take care of the bills on interests alone, but i still never spend more than a quarter of what i earn. Because you never know what tomorrow can bring, and when it brings it or if it brings it i want to be able to just relax and quietly look for a solution without being worried of not having a roof over my head of food in my plate. I do have several houses and money saved here and there but those house are only there to be sold when i need it and some bank account which i own i can't even access myself for at least 10 years because i deliberately locked them so nobody can access them except me after extremely litigious paperwork. That's because i am married and am a father and that i didn't make my better half sign any prenup but i also took my precaution and if i die, nobody can access that money for ten years for one account and 25 years for the main account, not even with a court of law. These account are locked for one and two decades. My spouse will have enough money left to eat until finding a proper job for sustainance and for the kids but when that money is gone they are on their own to make a living until they get granted access to the money. And if my spouse remarries during that period or lives with someone in a serious relationship which will be investigated, then the entire money goes to the kids. Unless they go to jail for doing something really stupid in which case the money goes to animal shelters. That's how you get rich, and that's how you stay rich.

But as an adult, I would gladly have a "Fallon" around to teach me "the game".
I think, at the end of the day, she knew Krystle truly loved her father and wanted to help. She just didn't like her until later on.
she just didn’t want her father embarrassed
I think Fallon recognised her own hand in the game. It seemed like one of the many reasons she was so unhappy when married, as in that sort of conservative wealthy circle, she can be something of a star as a daughter, but once married, she would be considered a supporting character in things.
There was no one quite like Crystal. Beautiful, sweet and gentle. No one could have replaced Linda Evans.
The CW reboot would like to have a word with you. She was surely replaced then.
Agree 💯 Nope I loved❤️ Krystal Linda Evens was so Beautiful.
The dialogue here - GOLD! 🥰
True - the first 2 seasons the show really focused on the dialogue
Take away the fact that it was made in the 1980s, the content of the series is very much up to date.
that's why PSM was the best Fallon... she cut you down calmly. Here she reminds Krystle that she's still working/middle class and not really part of the family. Blake isn't trying to do something nice for Krystle by buying her clothes (like she thinks) -- he's trying to dress up his trophy wife to make a good impression on investors.
It's not Elizabeth's fault the reboot was written this way
This is all true!!! When first watching this it sounded all so glamorous. Know it seems like a control tactic!
I like how they did the makeup for Fallon and Krystle. Not overdone but enough to accentuate! They are both beautiful women and don't need more then that!!!
Most women know this, but some men have yet to learn.
When a woman buys a new dress, coat, maybe a ring or new earrings, because she knows that when she is on her husband's arm,

Other, ignorant men, throw a fit over what the outfit cost!
To those men: If your wife looks bad, so do you.

It also doesn't hurt, that other people can also see that YOU treat your wife well, and respect her.
Pamela Sue Martin made the character of Fallon a complex personality. Not just a beautiful woman but a sophisticated woman who wanted the approval of her. da
"I'm sorry Fallon, this is not your concern" After she brings it up.
Pamela Sue Martin was the best Fallon.
As much as I like Emma Samms Pamela Sue is the only Fallon for me.
They should have had Emma be the new Amanda instead. Lol
Agreed! PSM was just excellent. I do like Emma Sams however, she just didn't fit Fallon!
😆🤣😂
I concur. I saw the show the night it premiered. PSM had done some movies. I loved her. I was 13 and was bummed that she left
She definitely was! I really feel the show wasn't the same after she left the role.
Always loved that named Fallon
They cast the right actress to play Fallon. I loved Pamela Sue Martin as Nancy Drew and Susan Shelby in The Poseidon Adventure. I hated the way Fallon treated Krystle because she was actually jealous that in her mind, Krystle was taking Blake away from her. Blake had enough love, if not more for all members of the Carrington clan (except for Alexis)!
Yes Pamela Sue Martin is the best Fallon because she has style, charm and very nice and beauty.🌹🌷💎💎💐💐💖💖💖
Fallon is beautiful.
Fallon is beautiful but the name is awful.
Pamela was the best Fallon. Loved to hate her. She was such a sassy wench.
She was a real her Mother's daughter 😁
But then we also grew to love to love her. At least I did.
I can't believe she quit the show when it was like the number 1 show on TV!
I think it was wearing on her mentally. No one talked about it then but it's talked about more now. Those people on those shows usually work 12-14 hour days at the studio. They often have NO LIVES because if they're not rehearsing or filming the show, they are out promoting it. So it's a LOT more demanding than most people think.

But it also explains why some like - like Linda Evans - stayed single and childless.
Believe it! PSM left the show for the cause of her health. Pam claimed that she left the show because she had an ulcer.
@@dalemcilwain WOW... This is brand spanking news to me.
It's called keeping up appearances obviously. I used to dress rich people professionally it's just part of the lifestyle. Like gang colours.
Fallon's words are a keeper. Krystle is simply out of place in a rich family's world.
Elizabeth Gillies is an iconic queen as an actress and the fact she makes Fallon double the iconic character in Fallon in the new Dynasty
I think Fallon was trying to be nice actually
The first sketch Krystle looks at remembers me of Diahann Carrolls Season 4 outfit at her first scene with Joan Collins in Alexis' penthouse ("... its burnt."). But Diahann wears full white, this sketch has a more beige color.
What Fallon said makes total sense. 🤷🏻♂️😬🤘
Emma Samms was hotter to me as far as looks but Pamela Sue was a better Fallon. I can see how Black and Alexis produced her. She could be strong and difficult but sexy and wise at the same time. She was the name Fallon. Just a great character when Pamela Sue played her
*Blake
Samms was one note. A bit of a worrying nag. Had none of PSM sarcasm or ruthlessness.
The writing was so sharp in the early seasons. People dump on Emma Samms, but the scripts she had to work with certainly didn't do her any favors.
I love Fallon’s outfit: Conservative yet still a hint of sex-appeal.
I love the way it plays Crystal I just love her
The servants get her "old' dresses? That' s very kind.
Linda Evans is so beautiful with up hear,and great acting both Pamela and Linda
Linda Evans looks so much like Bo Derek here. They look like sisters.
That would be the other way around. Evans' husband John Derek left her for Bo while they were all making a film together in Greece. John was 46, Bo 16. They had to stay in Germany until Bo turned 18 to avoid statutory rape charges in the U.S. Linda Evans is grace personified - she wasn't really acting when she played Krystal.
@@superdryupwithatwist What was she doing then farting? Lol.
Actually the last three wives of John Derek’s (Ursula Andress, Linda Evans, Bo Derek) all resembled each other, that man is anything but inconsistent.
Mr. Beaumont!!
Pamela Sue Martin the best of Dynasty fascinating lady
Linda Evans... So picturesque.
Here Fallon actually gave crystal right advice 🙄
This show was great in it's beginnings because Martin was a brillint, natural actor. Her performaces were genuine/convincing/enduring/compassionate. Joan Collins was amazing but her over-the-top performaces eventually failed without the passionate, earthy performaces by Martin.
I love Fallon's hair in season 1. I didn't like the permed shag she got in season 2. I love her blouse too.
Väldigt bra scen tycker jag med Pamela Sue Martin och Linda Evans dom spelar bra ihop 👊👊👍👍😁😁😎😎

💰💰💰💰💰💍💍💍💍💍
the clueless writers probably had no idea what a realistic number would be xD
Aces High.....
who else started watching the og dynasty while waiting for season 4 dynasty
This is a lot like when Pam got indoctrinated into the Ewing family.
Liz Gillies brings me here...and OMG they're so similar...Like WHAT???
of course they are, this is the original Fallon.
A little bit in appearance as well
As mean and passive aggressive Fallon was towards her, she still looked out for Krystle in her own way, imo
"I'm sorry Fallon, but this is not your concern" - Krystle had more class than that entire house put together, but that wasn't the end of it, Fallon answered back "You haven't exactly won everybody over in this house" with no respect just like her mother.
Million dollars spit in the ocean
Wow I was having a hard time understanding those metaphors or whatever you call it.
I don't really care for one Fallon over the other. They're from different periods.
The first one was on a show just slightly better. So the actor had more to work with. Not that the writing was ever impressive.
And by the second Fallon, the show got so bad, i'm sure the actors saw working on it as a punishment game xD
If the pandemic of 2020 did nothing else, it showed us that 2:50 is absolutely 100% still true!
Fallon is 100% delusional, hence her premature death in the series. Krystle should've told her to GTFO.
2:20 Fallon's head looks strangely pointy, like Oona from Disenchantment. The second picture the designer showed kind of looked like Princess Leia's white gown
