+Simon Webster So true. I recently watched the episodes of Dynasty when she was sick and you could really see her true beauty without too much make up.

+Brainwave 76 Well you have to remember 5000 was worth a lot more than vs now. Plus American money in those foreign countries is more valuable. So 5000 in that country might be equivalent to having 50,000.
Diahanne Carroll was one of the most beautiful and graceful women in the world. When they brought her on board she was the perfect foil for the just as beautiful Joan Collins. Damn I miss this show. Wish it and the ppl could have gone o forever.
And she knew etiquette. Dominique really looks horrible in that scene (which is so bad because the actress is such a beauty) but she didn't know how to seat and the dress was ill fitted, the fact that she didn't wear a hat at the reading of a will is so wrong. The fact that she crosses her legs and swings the one on top is even worse. Alexis was the epitome of class in that scene, with the perfectly fitted dress, the hat, the gloves, the matching heels, the exquisite jewellery and her posture, ankles crossed, no swinging legs, hands on lap and elbows on chair, back straight, etc... People should understand that hats make you keep your posture because you can't rest your neck or head anywhere.
@Arikm7 OK fine but why the belittling and anger against me? I wasn't the only one who asked the question btw. And no this entire back story is not apparent from the tiny clip. Get over yourselves! Jees
@@morganolfursson2560 Because Alexis was after Blake and his fathers money from the get go. It's very clear when watch her fights with Krystal. Alexis was chasing a lifestyle and Blake's father must have been aware of this on some level even if Blake wasn't at first. So in addition to being a recompense for the way he treated Dominique and her mother, he also secured that the money would stay in his family with his blood children, and not be weaseled out of them through blackmail by the likes people such as Alexis. Even if some of the money went to her children I'm sure she would find a way to get at it through them.
The 1st time I seen this my mouth was like😲, the dad came clean at the end. I clap for Dynasty how they played DC/DD character incorporated with the Carringtons. DD had her own, she wasn’t fake with anyone and her style was the bomb...they thought she was a reporter, but, she had her own riches💕💕💕love DC! Classy and Beautiful!
But she lacked etiquette and style and she was a tad vulgar, For instance, she doesn't know how to seat. Women with style and etiquette never cross their legs, they cross. Crossing legs is what prostitutes do.
When my grand father died, he left 70 000 pounds to each of his staff , to which, when my grand mother was made aware of it, (and after calling her late husband, a stingy old man) added an extra 80 000 pounds. This is not Alexis who should start a lawsuit, it is the staff. I have staff who take care of my kids and when i die, it is clear that they will be remembered and if they die before me, then i will definitely make sure that their kids get remembered. I have never understood how people could forget about the ones they owe their well being to. As my grand mother says, you have friends, you have family and you have staff. Family and friends may turn on you but they are not the ones cooking your meals and keeping your house safe and clean. Mistreat your staff and you might want to think twice before taking a single bite of anything they prepare or walking down those stairs.
I wish a family member of mine thought of this issue as you do. I'm friends with a guy that keeps their place up, and I doubt very seriously if he will be among the beneficiaries in any last will and testament.
Wow, that’s interesting to hear. We in our nationality 🗾 even lower class normally posses things called honesty, sense of pride and the notion that Sun(sort of god) is watching whenever one do bad rather than pure innocence, so ppl come and go fairly easily. I CAN easily declare that those are not issue for us. Come to think of it, historically social stratification and concepts of loyalty used to be big and laws prepared cruelest punishments for ones who betrayed their own personal “Master”s. *Of course « Masters » were to think of their employees as humans, obligated to be match-maker etc etc. How un-rich life you got there….
Really wish you'd post Tom's death scene, with his backhanded acknowledgement of Dominique--in his dying speech to Blake, he tells him to "Look after your sister."
Alexis is dressed to the 9s...peplum dress to create a flawless silhouette...gloves, pearls, bateau neckline, two-tone spectators, hat...perfect...perfect!
@@jamesrender6701 But Alexis is the mother of his legitimate children and this changes everything. Mothers before daughters is what my grand father always said and he owned 3 castles .This meant that if his daughters in law gave birth to children they become more important to him than his own daughters without heirs . And trust me, as his grand son (me) and the son of his only son, my mother had far more power and importance to him than my father's own unwed sisters. When my grand father passed, the wealth and assets were divided very unequally. Of course his wife my grand mother got half of everything which she can choose to split as she pleases among her children or grand children in her will . Then my father and mother got most of the other half of the cake, but his own unmarried daughters and sons without heir, got crumbs. Even the one daughter who happened to have a kid from a prior marriage didn't get much for three reasons, because she was divorced, because she is a woman and because her child happened to be a girl, and granddad wanted things to remain in the family by name, through male bloodline. But it was specified in the will that none of his assets would ever go to me , unless i actually married and got children of my own. Fortunately i have 6 and am married. But the funny part is that i married another man and only one of the kids is my biological son, but that was enough to grant me as automatic and irrefutable heir of the assets. That's what happens with old wealth, and if you add titles and aristocratic ancestry then the opening of an envelop is THE most awkward and family breaking moment in every family's history. My aunts literally loathe me and will never agree to ever meet me or my kids and i haven't even inherited one penny yet, not that i am actually looking forward to get anything since this would mean that my father and mother died . But this is how these types of families function.
will readings and the surprises they hold in them were one of the hot juicy subjects(together with trials,weddings,funerals etc.) in this show...there were 3 will readings in total, 2 of them in season 5 alone(tom carrington and daniel reese will readings) and one in season 3(cecil colby's will reading)
Alexis finally got her" just desserts" when Dominique was named executor of her father's estate!! 😆 RIP to old Tom Carrington & I know that Blake got a kick out of it!! Haha!
What’s the big deal about who’s the executor? The executor’s job’s to see that the bequests in the will are carried out - a pretty mechanical exercise.
This is how rich people operate. The man is worth 500 MILLION dollars, and only 20,000$ gets split among his household staff, who literally do all of his scullery labor day in and day out. Each one of them got what amounted to about 4 months salary.
Love Dominique! I'm rewatching the series and during all of the early seasons Blake is referred to as self-made. Did he leave his father to start or was the estate of his father something built later? I guess I'll get there because I'm only on season 2 and I don't remember.

That tension between Alexis and Dominique was pure gold!

What parrot?
No-one did a final stare quite like Diahanne Carroll did.

Nobody can rise from a chair like Joan Collins!
Alexis est vulgaire. Dominique est la quintessence du chic. Aucunes femmes blanches ne peut rivaliser avec miss Devereaux.
There would never be a serial like Dinasty again!!! Those charactors will stay in people's memory for ever and ever!!!
Alexis' outfit is perfection. Black dress, white pearls, white shoes. Damn.
Just alike in a funeral
The shoes were white and black. The back portion of her pumps, including the heel, was black.
Black and white clothes was popular during the Dynasty era. Even to the shoes and purses.
@@user-gi6ee8vj1y Black and white high heels were called "spectator pumps" very fashionable from the 1940s up until today
@@LilannB thank you for teaching me that.
The strings at the end of the scene let's you know shit was about to get real on the next episode...
Joan Collins looked great in wide brim hats! She looked so powerful when she threatened to break the will
That hat looked really beautiful on her
Saxon C That what Esther Shapiro said regarding her first appearance: make sure to put her in hats.
And she knew etiquette. Dominique really looks horrible in that scene (which is so bad because the actress is such a beauty) but she didn't know how to seat and the dress was ill fitted, the fact that she didn't wear a hat at the reading of a will is so wrong.

Alexis n'a aucune allure, elle est ordinaire et vulgaire, même ses tenues ne lui donne du chic. Dominique c'est le chic parisien 80's.

It Is a Mission Impossible 🤣
She is crappy, isn’t she. Mind you, Fallon gets the best lines. Alexis isn’t the main character in the new series. Blake is just as odious though.
Laissez moi rire, Alexis ? Ce n'est qu'une concierge sans chic.
I would have preferred Melinda Clarke for the role.
Rest in peace , john and now. Ms. D. Carroll.
We ONE big family now Bishhh!

But these clips are gonna make me rent the series.
This show was phenomenal!
Happy to have grown up watching classics such as these ‼️💪🏽
DOMINIQUE tells it like it is! Good for her ❤
INTERESTING...IN MOST SCENES DOMINIQUE AND ALEXIS HAVE ON THE SAME LIPSTICK...
Alexis, Blake, & Dominique...One Big UNHAPPY Family. Rest In Beauty, Splendor...& Shade Ms. Carroll.

That is a powerful scene.
It's sad he hid her from Blake for so many years.

You go Dominque .... put that Alexis in her place
Thank God err day Dianne Carroll fineseed her way into that show She gave me life err scene RIP Diane😭

However, Diahann looks 15 years younger. May she Rest In Peace!

Mee too. ❤️❤️
RIP Diahann Carroll ❤️
Wow Dominique the executive of the estate and Alexis doesn't like that, there father didn't admit that he is her father, but the WILL said it all, 👍.
You so sexy daddy
The score in the background LOL. It is its own character. Love it!
This show was too much! Fantastic!
That was so cute...Money and power sometimes can not get along with each other...
Classic cliffhangers! You had to spend the whole week or wondering what happens next.
How many dramas have these adult scenes nowadays ? Love Alexis' line "ill fight this travesty through every court & ill break it !"'
Whaddaya mean, haven't you seen the reboot? (Yes, I'm joking here..)
Powerful scene!
Alexis is dressed to the 9s...peplum dress to create a flawless silhouette...gloves, pearls, bateau neckline, two-tone spectators, hat...perfect...perfect!
You can tell the actress playing Alexis was always holding back laughter after Diahann delivered her lines. They were good friends behind the scenes.
What is Alexis griping about it's not like her children need the money
True. But the rich get richer by keeping all of the money for themselves -- even when they have more than they will ever spend.
Alexis has no biological relationship to Tom. That is Dominique's father.

Gosh! I miss shows like this
Sad the staff only got 5 thousand for years of service.
The staff is laid very “well” or it says throughout the series . Room and bored included. But I’m not rich I don’t know. 5000 seems like shit.

In the show the newspaper showed that each of the kids, Blake, Dominique and Alexis got $150 Million each...
Doesn't add up. Tom's total estate was worth $500 MM.

Worth $500 million and the servants get $5,000 each for a lifetime of service. That's how you screw the help!
Dominique, you go, girl!!!!!
Before they created Empire nd Starz..
Empire is a broke version of dynasty cookie is more blunt than Alexis and booboo kitty supposed to been the black Krystal
Alexis didn't have half the poise and grace Dominique had. She was all sharp edges and arrogance.
Jeff., love your collection.
What’s the big deal about who’s the executor? The executor’s job’s to see that the bequests in the will are carried out - a pretty mechanical exercise.
Oh the drama
The way that everyone stared at Golddigging Ass Alexis!! Love it!! 😆

$500,000,000 estate, and all the servants got was $5000 each.
