Interesting how the show used news cuts of Reagan embroiled in Iran-Contra or other derogatory reports in order to mark the time frame of the scene. The show ended with a Voice-over attesting to how Reagan's everlasting legacy will be making a creditor nation into a debtor nation.
Will Hollywood never tire of spinning political agenda instead of making good entertainment?
The characters were all parodies and the show seemed to be only about the wish of the creator to create a legacy. The actors chosen looked like John Forsythe, Linda Evans, and Joan Collins and were passable lookalikes - but were not credible acting impersonators. The show seemed aimed at defining the creator and producer - everything else was unimportant. Even the average viewers who were cut to every so often were parodies. If an unemployed overweight couch potato grousing at everything and his wife were the target demographic group then how the show ever made it past the first season is unknown. It seems "Muldavia" and "Crystal's evil twin" were Dynasty's self proclaimed Fonzie jumping the shark on waterskis wearing his leather jacket.
The Australian and New Zealand actors and camera teams seemed to distance the work from the Hollywood elites - but they are what they are. I noticed none of the directors or producers allowed their names to be attached to the actual presentation. They must have feared for their reputations or careers - yet put their idealogy out front.
