@@patricknaughton2422 He didn't appear in "Dynasty: The Reunion" which aired a couple of years after the show finished in 1989. We are told that Alexis apparently turned in mid air (just like a cat) so she could land on top of Dex 😂😂😂
Adam always had Alexis back and overprotective of his mom. Dex: I'm going to take my kid to ball games Alexis: I think I'm going to be sick. Alexis was brutal and honest. What's not to 💞.
Oh man!!! I just ordered the Dynasty Box Set! Can't WAIT to relive all of Alexis's greatest lines!!!!🤣🤣 And...on a more serious note: rest in paradise, Michael Nader. Your Dimitri and Dex characterzations were second to NONE! A wonderful, talented man you were. You will live on in mine and millions of fans hearts forever. 🙏🏾
That's right he was Dex and Dimitri on All My Children. Wow - how did he get to work with the two biggest soap divas ever.. He worked with Joan Collins and Susan Lucci. The very best and most drama filled characters ever.
They never specifically said that Dex died. Just that "he didn't fare all that well". I always assumed he ended up in a coma or the fall crippled him. Or both.
@@FaytLinegod I always assumed he died, because if I remember correctly, the dialogue towards Alexis was that they were surprised that she was still alive and she wasn't dead, and then it was said that Dex didn't fare as well. Since they were on the topic of dying, I assumed that meant that Dex had died. IDK
In my opinion, series 9 could actually be the best series in the whole programme, although series 6 and 8 were also exceptionally good, because Dynasty found a new way to re-ignite the feud between Alexis and Blake whilst going back to the original reason why Alexis was forced to leave Denver and her children in the first place, Roger Grimes and then of course Fallon is revealed as the one who accidently killed Roger Grimes whilst trying to protect her mother. Also there's Adam up to his usual tricks and in this series he is at his nastiest after the breakdown of his marriage to Dana and the custody loss of his son. Although Linda Evans left the programme earlier in the series, Sable is then introduced into the programme and the verbal feuds between Alexis and Sable are just as good. In many ways it is a shame that Dynasty was cancelled at this point but at the same time, they probably inadvertently made one of the best unanswered cliff-hangers in TV history. Although the reunion does shed some light on the ending to this scene, it was not to my knowledge an official series, so to some extent this ending is how the actual TV series concludes.
@@austx290 as I recall it was a settlement agreement where Sable agreed to cease taking ColbyCo from Alexis in exchange for Alexis keeping quiet about some Nazi paintings buried in the lake which was a conspiracy between Jason and the parents of Blake and Dex.
The look on Sables face at the end is awesome. Michael Naders facial expression as he falls out of frame is pretty terrifying too. But, campy all the same and we love it.
I think they we're all expecting to be renewed for season 10 but it never came. So many unanswered questions. Sure the reunion told us Alexis landed on Dex and he died but it never told us about Sable or the child
Possible that Sable kept the child away from Alexis. Another possibility is she gave the child to Monica to raise who in turn got a restraining order out against Alexis and Adam.
Pour moi voilà la suite de l histoire, sable fait une fausse couche et perd l enfant et retourne en Californie pour épouser zacharie powers, monica recherche miles le trouve et fais avouer à sable qui est vraiment leur père il s agit de..... Cécil colby donc ils restent des colby, bliss ne revient plus ainsi que Jason et Francesca ils vivent heureux, Philippe colby est toujours vivant et veut se venger de Jason, connie est bien morte éliminée par son neveu Philippe, channing à eu un enfant de miles ce dernier l épouse, monica récupère son fils et se marie avec le sénateur, voila pour les colbys, pour les carrington dex est bien mort, pour Blake j avoue que je comprends pas pourquoi il est en prison il y avait bien zorelli non ? Comme témoin, pour fallon et krystina, c est petit Blake et Daniel qui indiquent juste à temps à Jeff la cachette secrete et les libèrent krystina en voulant défendre fallon par le fils de Roger grimes retrouve le pistolet et le tue l histoire se répète, pour la mystérieuse femme dans la limousine il y a 3 options caress la sœur d Alexis, Dominique devreaux, la 3e serait peut être la belle sœur de Blake donc l épouse de ben carrington, pour amanda elle n existe plus, pour sammyjo elle perd sa fortune mais tombe amoureuse d un prêtre, et krystle qui reaparrait, par contre le consortium est complètement ringard
They really should not have ended Dynasty on a cliffhanger like that. I know the ratings were lagging by that point, but they should have in the very least given them the 13 episodes of a tenth season to wrap up all the storylines. The reunion movie was a mess.
Another possibility is that the Carlton developed termites after Sable bought it - adding to the drama was that earlier Sable told her workers to attend to the railing so it would get a clean bill of health from the insurance inspector.
It’s called style Sable …some of us have it ..some of us haven’t . So true Joan …you had style for sure . You were Dynasty . The rest of them were a pack of dullards .
I love how during the fight between Dex and Adam, Sable and Monica alternate back and forth between being in front of the balcony and in front of a wall. LOL
I had no idea who Stephanie Beacham was before Dynasty. She spent several years on The UK Prison Drama Bad Girls where she played Phylida "Phyl" Oswyn who along with her partner Beverly Tull did a Pre-Ponzi Scheme. Selling Real Eastate that was swamp. Amanda was also a legend on Britian's Longest Running Soap Opera Coronation Street where she played Alma Baldwin. Stephanie also appeared on the show as an Actress who did theater an lived on a Boat. Stephanie and Joan also did Shows from Shed Productions. Joan did Footballers Wives about the glamorous lives of Women whose Husbands play for The UK's most powerful Soccer Team. To many it would be the prototype for The Real Life Housewives Franchise. Michael Nader worked with Brenda Dickson (Ex-Jill Foster Abbott #1) on The Young & The Restless and even had a small part as an Extra in a Beach Movie with Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon where Stevie Wonder Sang "Happy Street".
Stephanie Beecham has had a varied career .hammer horror ..in fact lots of movies tenko .seaquest dsv .the Colby's .bad girls .Corrie .dynasty .....dare I say she's a better actress than Joanie..she was recently a guest at Joan's wedding anniversary ..with Emma Sam's ..the only dynasty co stars invited ..
Stephanie Beacham also did a TV drama series called "Connie", just before she appeared in The Colbys. It's set in Birmingham and is about the economic decline of the textile and clothing industry in the UK, and she plays a character not too dissimilar to Alexis. The Dynasty producers noticed how well she played a strong woman.
It was never really revealed what happened to Dex after his and Alexis' fall from the balcony. It was mentioned he didn't fare that well so maybe he could have been paralysed or being nursed back by a pretty nurse in Wyoming
sometime after the show ended Collins said in an interview that she was not returning if she had been renewed for a 10th season....she had grown bored with the role and felt that alexis had done it all there was nothing the writers cld come up with that she wld find challenging enough to return...the only thing that she might have found challenging was if they killed off alexis and had joan return has her twin sister...similar to the linda evans doppelganger storyline...n that was ttl bullshit.....joan was pissed that they wrote her out of 9 episodes of the sason ....essentially taking food out her mouth since she was not paid for episodes she did not appear in...meanwhile John F was not written out of any episodes....i knew Joan's compensation per episodes at the start of season 2....dynasty was at the door step of cancelation....there are 2 primary reasons that did not come 2 pass..1) abc relationship with spelling...2) producers had advised abc the gameplan for increasing viewership n that was to cast an actress in the role of blake's x-wife....at that time joan was not even in the running...there were two actresses on the short list....liz taylor & sofia loren...lproducers met with taylor...however, forsythe,nixed her(i have never heard any explanation why)...producers were very open to loren but her asking was way more than they were open to paying so no counter offer was made.....and they moved on....someone on the creative side of the show (i believe it was the shapiros) caught collins late nite in movie based on her sisters book....the bitch and the rest is theatrical history.....by the end of s5...dynasty had climed to the #1 show which coinsided with expiration of joans 2nd contract....joan a vet in the industry struck while the iron was hot...named her price....she was not open to negotiating...it was a take it leave it situation....once she boycotted the s5/e1 n was a no show....they met her demands(inclusive of a 6 figure retention bonus...certf chck to be exchanged at contract signing)....however,shit went ttly left when collins refused to appear on the colby's.....the writing her out of 9 episodes for s9 was pay back n joan was pissed....the show had enough cast that what ever the 9 episodes equated 2....cld have been made upamong the supporting cast....joan was a principle...as such she shld have been part of every episode...
Poor Dex had a miserable ending. I wonder what happened to Sable and his kid? Also Adam should have been arrested for accidental manslaughter of something.
I heard a conversation with Stephanie; there was a mention about the possible continuation of Dynasty, but focusing more on the younger generation, and Stephanie said: LB, Danny, Krystina, Lauren, Scott and Sable's child" - we can conclude she wanted her protagonist to have Dex' child.
The producers were clearly done at this point; Sable is in two different spots during the fall. The earlier seasons would not have let that happen so easily.
Hahah! Well spotted. There's a hand in the bottom left corner holding up Dex's back! 😊 Edit: If you play it in slo-mo and pause at 2.51 you can also see the top of someone's head directly behind Alexis' left shoulder. I suppose this was the 80s so things like this were less easily noticed when watching on TV. More likely to be spotted on a video replay by then but it looks like they were using old stunt techniques here. The two figures that actually fell appear to be dummies attached together; Dex's legs look unnaturally straight. Actually there's even more bad editing as at 2.41 a woman and then a man are seen approaching along the walkway behind Alexis. The camera then cuts away from her, then back to her in a split second, and the two people have vanished from the walkway completely. 😏
Series Finale! After all those fun seasons, this is how the series ended. They could have done better than this. The later Re-union show was good but not great.
Having decided to cancel the show, producers should've had the decency to create 4 or 5 episodes wrapping things up in a meaningful way, not as the Reunion portrayed them, with Sable and Monica in them.
Had the show gone on to sewason 10 Collins said shed do a "hand full" of episodes so this was probably how they would write her off being crippled for a while in a rehab center. Sable im glad nothing happened to she was due to take over the more BITCH ROLE in season 10
Damn!! I missed.a whole lot when I stopped watching "" Dynasty" & " The Colbys"!! I've gotta catch up!! Better late than never!! Dex & Alexis took a serious dive!! Gotta find out if they lived!!
No, of course not. All I meant was the choreography wasn't very realistic, and it needed another camera to catch whatever the first one would have missed. Krystle's pregnancy falls down the steps and off the horse were better staged.
Nunca supimos si Dex murió dejaron muchos cabos sueltos y muchas dudas sin resolver no me gusto en la reunión que cambiasen a Adán ni que trajese al primer Stevem ni otra vez Milles Colby encima que violo a Fallon y debería de haber aparecido por lo menos en la cena final Amanda,Dominique,Caren,Ben..pero por lo menos Amanda que era hija y jamás se nombró ni cuando dijo Blake todo lo que me importa está en esta mesa,faltaba una hija
one lousy floor and they both perish? how high is that balcony?? it's not like they fell 100 stories high or anything .. just ridiculous .. and who makes wooden railings? please, try steel next time for safety!
I watched an episode (5th episode) a few months ago of the Mexican telenovela El color de la pasion (the color of passion) which aired in 2014. The episode featured a fall by the heroine similar to this but in that case she was "accidently" gently pushed during an argument by her jealous younger sister; I wonder if those writers got the idea from this scene?
@Dusk Hollow Heck no. I watched from the beginning and by season 9--they were embarrassing themselves. The show was a shell of its former self. Bringing on Sable after The Colby's tanked was the best move the made. The writing and stories were mediocre and that's being kind.
@@benjaminsambul7104 .... "Elitists" ??? They were the best years, and Season 9 was the best the show had been for ages, although it was too late to save it from the axe.
@@harmlessgrandpa I don't agree at all. The show was almost canceled after Season One. Except for the Roger Grimes whodunit, Season 9 was a chore to watch. The show was most popular during all the other seasons for a reason. The other seasons are what made Dynasty "Dynasty." I'm re-watching the second half of Season 6 right now. The Ben vs. Blake inheritance trial is absolutely riveting.
@@benjaminsambul7104 ... The show had the biggest two year drop in the ratings for a former #1 show in history between 1985 and Season 8. Your agreement obviously means very little.
The Editing is really bad....when you look at Sable and Monica....first Monica pulls her away then they standing nowhere close the sealing then cut again they standing next to Adam....dont let me start on the bald man behind Alexis during her fall and the other one that is holding dex lol
