Apparently a very light karate chop was very effective in the 80s.
my, how times have changed.
Hahaha! Right? This whole plot was lame.
I just read your comment and laugh my ass off!… It was like she was swatting a fly!… That is too freaking funny
@@joemanzo4453 From then on Dynasty fell from grace. Very lame.
😂😂😂😂😂
And this was the beginning of the end of Dynasty.
The scene is lame and the story is lame. How the mighty has fallen... It was the number 1 show the previous season...
This and the Muldavian massacre
@@BixbysDad The Muldavian Massacre wasn't the problem. It was the aftermath of it that was the downfall. The event itself was a terrific cliffhanger, in fact one of Dynasty's best cliffhangers. It was the follow up of that cliffhanger that folks had huge issues with.
Mid-season 6 until the end was good
Ok first off that EPIC Karate chop with no sound effects was ridiculous...lol. Second the music and cliffhangers was IT! LOL Third that clone wouldn't have left that room ok.
Love, love, love this scene--especially the music in the background: the strings are so dramatic!
just like in JAWS ;)
@@mr.adventure0142 Befitting, as the show's Writers "jumped the shark" with this storyline...
I started watching the OG Dynasty from season 1 and I must show say I see why the show was so epic! The costumes, the dialogue, the storyline, and the characters 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
The music!!!! Hahaaa give me a spoon I am eating this up!
I like how they always have that dramatic orchestra music with Aaron Spelling's name at the end of the scene. Lololol
Kicking a lady’s shoulder pad from behind makes her pass out
lol
@MIMI82 I wish 😅. But that’s Marlon Brando in his early 20s…
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Krystle was obviously a robot all along. Joel merely knocked her switch over into the OFF position. Makes perfect sense now, doesn't it?
Yes, the robot theory makes a lot of sense
That damn beat drop when Krystal walked in on Rita Rtfol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I couldn't breathe.
Say what they will about the Krystle/Rita storyline but I thought Lind Evans did a great job in portraying Rita. She talked, moved and acted totally different from Krystle.
Whether she did or not it was unfair to put so much strain on the actress during this period.
I agree - Evans was more supporting
in Season 3-5 so this story gave her some fun material. She had not had anything real meaty since Season 2!
That's something any seasoned actor would enjoy, getting to play a second character who is very different from the usual one. Had to be fun being Rita for a while. A performer worth her salt would carry this off easily.
she should have won an Emmy.
WOW!!!! It's amazing how much she looked like Crystal. They did a good job on finding her.
That's hilarious! This story line was so over top and ridiculous that even as a child I rolled my eyes.
The casting was perfect! So incredible that she had the exact same height, weight and voice. Even her husband couldn’t make the difference; the only way he could have found out would have been by having sex with her. Thank god she refused to do it and Blake and Krystal marriage remained pure.
both John & Linda had fidelity clauses in their contracts that no storyline wld ever include their characters being unfaithful....thats why their ever crossed the line Blake with alexis linda danial reese
It's the same person .
Wish they'd had the same luck when they recast Fallon.
Rewatching this today, I can’t stop laughing 😂😂😂. Krystle is bent on calling Blake. I’m curious as to what she would have said to him and his reaction, if she hadn’t been knocked out.
It would have went like this:
Krystle: BLAKE!! There's a woman here who looks exactly like me!!
Blake: She looks exactly like you?
Krystle: Yes, a mirror image!! Come quick!!
Blake: All right, darling. I'll be there shortly.
Both hang up phone. Blake dials a number...
Blake: Hello, Dr. Jones (psychiatrist). I need to make an appointment for my wife. She thinks her reflection in the mirror is another person.
Dr. Jones: Yes, Mr. Carrington, send her in right away!!
Yeah, it's a ridculous and hilarious reaction to call hubby in this situation, to have him come down there for an explanation. She can't handle this herself? Call the police, not Blake--- because you're a well known and prominent person and someone is commiting fraud right under your nose. Might even be a misdemeanor.
@@eduardo_corrochio Most "Dynasty" fans seem to have hated the Krystle/Rita storyline. I loved it, I thought it was FUN and suspenseful, which is what a tv show is supposed to be. Oh, well.
@@KingofPepsi You're right, there's a lot of disdain for the plot involving Rita (and creepy Joel) from fans of the series. I admit that the story was farfetched, but this is 1980s primetime soap escapism, so you kind of expect some writing where you just have to sit back and enjoy when things go over the top.
But to be frank I suspect that the writing team did not have a complete guide or idea as to what was going to happen this season; it feels like they were trying to figure out what to do with Rita and Joel as the story progressed. Who knows. Writing a soap like this has to be fun and also daunting in certain ways.
@@eduardo_corrochio Yes, I am sure that writing for a hit show and keeping it interesting would be hard to do and maintain. I think "Dynasty" had a good run with its 9 seasons.
Instead of leaving she gets on the phone and calls Blake😂😂😂cracking up at how sorry of a threat was that
I enjoyed this storyline back in the day.
George Hamilton was Norman Bates with color.
Truth! Glad I'm not the only one who finds a huge similarity between the personas.
That was one powerful Karate-Chop!
That’s all it took and she’s out like she fainted lol. I’d like to have seen what Blake would have said on the phone.
Wow, the weeks she had to do the dual scenes had to be brutal 😖. But, great! I just kept saying, I know she had to be tired after that season. Wow☺️☺️☺️
Elle avait deux cachets d actrices car elle incarnait deux personnages différents
Not sure why would it be brutal. A bit of a challenge ... maybe. The catfight sequence between R&K was likely two stunt women (or stunt men in drag). And as far as playing two different characters throughout one season, I expect the producers filmed things in a fairly easy way so that Linda wasn't overworked. Bet she had fun playing a struggling Southern actress who is suddenly made over into a ritzy lady of means.
When the show started to go downhill. The moment they start adding doubles, you know they're desperate for a good storyline
Blake was smart enough to run a million dollar oil empire but he wasn't smart enough to figure out Krystle was a fake? Come on😒
Who said he was ever smart about his empire? Didn't the plot line "Blake is going bankrupt" happen like every other season, starting with season 1? xD
Donna Miller at the hospital he did say to Rita that she is not his wife and that she looks like her but isnt her
Eventually he did!
You're talking about business sense and when he's being intentionally deceived by a woman who doesn't have sex with him.
...Momma said KNOCK YOU OUT!
Whoever thought of this “Patty Duke twin cousins” episodes should have been fired. Two Crystals too ridiculous.
I’m calling Blake😂 if that call had got through he would have thought she had been at the vintage port.
This was funny when Krystle saw Rita.
A prelude to the scrap that was yet to come !
Such a campy, over the top scene! 😀
How did she pass out from that tiny hit?!?!
+Stiff Wit
I think that hit was more comedic purpose than effectiveness, all I know is that it made me laugh!
+Stiff Wit , I loved how Krystle went straight to the phone to call Blake while demanding Rita have an explanation!! As if Blake is going to show up and Rita is going to say, "The reason that I look like your wife is because....I'm her long, lost twin!!"
I'm her twin sister Lalique!
Yeah, and that "dramatic" music at the end!!
PungiFungi or Amethyst
George Hamilton is awesome as Joe. George is a criminally underrated actor!
He was a fine addition to this season. Some of his acting reminded me of the Norman Bates we saw in the _Psycho_ sequels and prequels of the 1980s. There's this ominous thing going on underneath that cool veneer which could eventually erupt one day.
Who knew George Hamilton had Bruce Lee moves?
Evans channeled her BIG VALLEY accent 🫢
Haha... I LOVE THIS SCENE !!!
Love that cliffhanger esp the music... and hey the karate chop didn't bother me as far as I knew it was some nerve he hit - and didn't Jack Bauer used to squeeze somewhere around that area too, to make people pass out? lol
And IIRC, Spock was famous for that as well on O-R NBC Star Trek of the 60s (the Spock Pinch, it was called, also IIRC).
@@bmasters1981 the Vulcan Death Grip, maybe.
DID ANYBODY NOTICE THE JAW'S BACKGROUND MUSIC
Yes, I caught that, but, you beat me to it! LOL
what exercise did they do in the 80's that gave women such BROAD shoulders? Rita could be a shoulder-body-builder!!!
Talk about "Go chase yourself!"
Dumb!
I guess Krystle didn’t think she’d spotted her long lost twin sister. 😂
The worst storyline. It went on forever.
JL Lore you’re right it was awful. It was SUPPOSED to go on for the ENTIRE season but people stopped watching the show so they changed the plot line
@@joemanzo4453 I agree Joe. I'm a big George Hamilton fan but this storyline was simply the worst. Dynasty made alot of missteps after Season 5. From casting Emma Samms as Fallon to all the time spent on introducing the Colbys. The show just lost its focus. But the fake Krystal storyline ranks as probably the worst in the show's nine seasons.
I remember reading this was around the time they would literally write the plots for the episodes as they shot the scenes. They just completely gave up on it and you’re right they put a lot of time introducing The Colby’s which became a carbon copy of Dynasty in it’s early years.
@@joemanzo4453 Agree. It was a powerhouse of show at the height of its success.
that faux karate chop knocked her out.
The Krystle look a like Rita taking over as Krystle plot was still a lot better than the space alien abduction of Fallon in the beginning of the final season (1989) that's when everyone knew the show was coming to an end! lol
For those leaving comments,that Linda Evans would have loved this,she hated it and said she cringed everytime she saw it
Hands down, this was the worst and dumbest storyline in the 9 years of this show.
I hated this storyline. You could tell the show had peeked the prior season (the "Moldavian Massacre" was actually the jump the shark moment for Dynasty). It would only get worse.
minnbeef hey you take that back😂😂😂😂😂✌🏾
When it was finally over, I felt as if I were the one being rescued from captivity.
ClarenceFisher hahaha seriously! I felt the same way. I’m sure most of the audience did too because once they dumped that horrible plot the ratings shot way up again. It was painful to watch and to think the original story was supposed to last the entire season! Ugh
@@joemanzo4453 All of you ain't no fun. I LOVED the Krystle/Rita storyline. And we got rewarded with the ultimate showdown!!
She gets KO'd with a neckchop to the back of the head. Nice shot of her on the floor.
Wow - I only watched half of Dynasty in the 80s. This looks great, appeals to my sci-fi and fantasy instincts. And Heather looks incredibly hot !
watching all the people from krystle past life and from her home town Dayton-sammy joe,mark jennings,sammy joe's step father,sammy joe's real father daniel reece,her cousin virginia-it seems to me that everyone of them tries to ruin her present life as a carrington(except virginia) and they are not less visious then alexis....mark jennings and daniel reece try to seperate her from blake, sammy joe's step father brings sammy joe to the carrington mansion in season 2 and threat krystle in season 3 untill mark saves her, and sammy joe kidnap krystle in season 6 only to get her inheritance that daniel reece left for sammy joe but with krystle as the will executor
Great!
Double really 😁
Were they seriously 2 different people? My 80's are way too blurred!
I remember Fallon & a Spaceship 🚀 #Death to it sadly! But remember-The Occult/Uri Geller was such a rage then-but seriously mind blowing! 💝80s 👍
Meer Cat same person screen changes
Meer Cat same person they just swtiched clothes
Krystal meets Krystal causing two episodes to put together as part one and part two Sammy Jo has gone mad on getting her money from safe keeping it’s interesting always how there’s always a way out
i love Dynasty but that storyline was just stupid.
Det är scen är också coolt och sorligt också tycker jag 😭😭😢😢👊👊👍👍🌷🌷⚘⚘🥀🥀🥚🥚🤤🤤
George Hamilton's surgeon should be locked up
Why?
I think that's his natural face....
He looks good
Lol.
Why are they dressed like football players?
Called fashion baby!
Massive shoulder pads were the rage at the time. Dynasty is almost synonymous with that look.
This episode was so goofy.
krystle should have went to WWF with as great as she sold that chop
Those shoulder pads are giving me life!
JUDO CHOP!
Krystle: Mojigata ...
0:28 Damn if that would've connected he would've knocked the shit outta her
A ridiculous storyline....rita impersonates Krystle signs over sammy joes inheristance...n then what?? .....but wld have balanced out had they used the storyline to push the envelope made the doppelganger the exact opposite of Krystle ....everytime krystle reached the end of her rope with blake she wnt packed her suitecase n headed out with blake never preventing her fr leaving......blake comes home n finds her in a compromising exchange btwn her n joel....they are not caught in the act but blake believes something is going on n something is off with krystle.....they argue....krystle packs comes dwn with Krystina n attemps to leave.....this time blake prevents her frm leaving...tells her she is not the women he married n he does not trust her with Krystina...she can go but Krystina stays put......n the fools wrote themselves into a corner becuase if sammy joe had me kidnapped for weeks held by some creepy stranger for wks not knowing if i am gonna make it out alive...all for some fckn inheritance...i wld have turned her over to police...if by some chance my conscious got the better of me n i cld not bring myself to report it to the police......i wld tell her i will not report this to the police with one non negotiable string attached....I never see or speak with you again...EVER.....
Where did they find an actress who looked like Linda Evans ?....
seriously!! what kind of hit on the back of the head was that???
Can't you tell who a person is from seeing them from the back and not seeing their face? Therefore, I guess Rita had an identical back to Krystil's back? 🤔
Sammy Jo was in on it?
After season four dynasty sucked big time .
I'm pretty sure theyre the same person. I'm shocked they had that kind of technology in 1985
...Try 1945.
They had it in 1946 when Bette Davis played 2 people in a stolen life
They are the same person
Seems you never saw old sitcoms like Bewitched. Or movies like the orig "The Parent Trap" from 1961, and the funnyman Danny Kaye in "Wonder Man" from 1945. The gimmick goes back a long way.
@@eduardo_corrochio Yep
*hahahaha* *.*
Sammy Joe was in on this?!?!
Yes she wanted revenge on her aunt for not releasing funds she had inherited, though didn't plan to go this far. It was a completely unbelievable plot anyhow.
If you know what SJ had been capable of before this season then it should not seem shocking at all that she started a crazy scheme to get money from the Carringtons. Granted, the George Hamilton character took the whole plot way too far, which bothered her.
1:01
reruns on cbs drama
Stenographers BOGO sale!!!!
A double taking over someone’s life is classic soap opera fodder. Unfortunately they kept this storyline going far too long and their audience started to tune out marking this as the beginning of the end of Dynasty. I always felt the producers neglected the storylines at the beginning of season six while devoting their energies to launching the spinoff The Colby’s.
Beyond soap hilarious. The reality is people do have split identities and do this criminal shit all the time. Albeit not with an exact doppelgänger like this camp show did however , LOL.
Krystle Tom no more crime on doing agian so much trouble
My God, they must have run out of ideas to invent this crap.
Stop it. Most of the soaps had an evil look-alike storyline. I think "Dynasty" did a great, fun job with it.
Primetime and daytime soaps had been doing a lookalike or evil twin storyline for decades before Dynasty "invented" this. Sometimes it was a great showcase for an actor (i.e., actor David Canary's work on All My Children, starting in late 1984); sometimes, not so much.
@@eduardo_corrochio Oh, yeah, I know. The evil twin is a classic storyline. If I was a writer for "Dynasty", I would have made it even more outrageous like with two Krystles, two Blakes, and two Alexises!!- LOL!!
@@KingofPepsi That's funny! Yeah, it's bad enough they gave Steven a new face after his oil rig mishap, but then to start this doppelganger jazz .... my gosh. 😆
@@eduardo_corrochio The original actor who played Steven wanted out of the show, so, they had to give him a new face. But, then, the original actress who played Fallon wanted out, too, so they just replaced her with a new actress without explanation into the show. Again, I loved the Krystle/Rita storyline. I thought the Moldavian Wedding Massacre was badass awesome!! It was the aftermath that made people groan, I guess.
Ooh i don t got it , they don t look like Twin at all lolll i love Soap !
Bcs they are the same person
I had stop watching it. Too bad it ended. They had a great show. Ruined it.
Too bad the show had to get this silly. Lazy writers.
May sense Karen was kidnapped over on Knots Landing ..Krystal might well have been too..XD..??
JUDO CHOP!!
The 80’ 🙄
This was such a stupid storyline, like why insult the viewers intelligence. The family would have known the woman was an imposter no matter how much she looked like Krystle.
Alexis noticed something was weird about "new Krystle" early on. Especially how the lookalike treated Little Blake (or one of the toddlers, maybe Danny, I forget which).
@@eduardo_corrochio Yea Alexis was the only one who noticed anything.
@@jacksongreene3687 Not only Alexis, Steven too. But everybody thought that is the same Krystle. Alexis stated Krystle showed her real character and Steven that Krystle changed.
Sorry for my English (not national language).
@@piotrwiechua5703 Yea this storyline didn't make sense.
Seriously this was a stupid plot line doing the evil twin thing
They made lesbians love
Your thoughts on Linda Evans' : ua-cam.com/video/_qnukTzAcYM/v-deo.html
.........
Worst story ever.
Yeah, no kidding. It literally drove MILLIONS of viewers away until they changed it in time
It was literally painful to watch.
aw, even worse than "Fallon gets abducted by aliens"? xD
tatik Hahaha 😂 I forgot about that one. Ok maybe that one was worse.
this is crystal sister.this is copy
This is the same person just editimg and the actor is playimg both the characters
Yeesh this show was pure TRASH
bad acting bad story lines
Nice fake karate , Bro . Wouldn't even hard a fly . Phony 80's shit .

C'mon! I'm sure it was supposed to make you laugh, it sure as hell made me!
U Right it did , LOL .

Dynasty sucked.
Apparently "Dynasty" didn't suck, it lasted nine seasons. That's a great run.
