Los Colby

Anyone who has watched the Colby's knows it was a spin off of Dynasty. The first episodes opening screen even says "Dynasty II", and it included many references to Dynasty. Although the show only ran from 1985-1987 it was a very entertaining show made even more so by its all star cast. Its intelligent soap opera story line keep you coming back time after time.

I remember this show begin on opposite Dynasty on Wednesday nights back in the 80's! It was also that when this show was created,Dynasty rose to number one in the Neilsons,beating out arch-rival Dallas for the top spot since The Colbys only ran for two seasons on ABC. Its based on the original Dynasty character Jeff Colby and his wife Fallon. The show had some very heavy hitters here as the characters which consisted of Charlton Heston,Barbara Stanwyck,Ricardo Montalban,Diahann Carroll, David Hedison,and Ken Howard not to mention Stephanie Beacham(as the intriguing Sable Colby). This was one show that had more twist then any other I've seen and it can happen only in a prime-time TV soap opera and a whole lot more. Catch the episodes on SoapNet!

I thoroughly enjoyed 'The Colbys' from start to finish. It's all glittery golden campy fun. Great actors like Charlton Heston really made it real for me.

This spinoff from Dynasty failed in so many ways and it's all the writers and products fault. The show was the exact same if Dynasty down to the opening theme which changed just a little. The storylines where slow and the same as dynasty but slower. Most if the characters where boring except the odd few. The character of Sable is really the only thing that saves the show shes amazing. The show could of worked if they did a spinoff that was different from dynasty like Dallas did with knots landing.

Great and fun. Lots of old school stars and drama. Tongue in cheek humor. Wish Stanwyck had held on, she improved everything she was in.
