Cast notes

Production

Development

Dynasty was renewed for a 22-episode second season on April 2, 2018. A May 2018 press release teased that the show would introduce Blake's half-sister Dominique Deveraux, Jeff and Monica's mother, in season two. In March 2019, the role was cast with Michael Michele. In December 2018, AlloCiné reported that Dynasty would film an episode in Paris and its suburbs in January 2019 during Paris Fashion Week. Dynasty was renewed for a third season on January 31, 2019. In May 2019, Deadline Hollywood reported that co-executive producer Josh Reims would succeed Sallie Patrick as executive producer and showrunner for season three.

Casting

Шаблон:Multiple image In May 2018, TVLine reported that Nicollette Sheridan would be a series regular for the second season. In June 2018, original cast member Nathalie Kelley, who portrayed [[Cristal Flores|Celia Machado Шаблон:Aka Cristal Flores Carrington]], told E! News that she would not be returning for season two. The CW announced in August 2018 that Ana Brenda Contreras had been cast as "the real Cristal Flores" for the second season. Maddison Brown was also cast as Anders's daughter, Kirby, and Sharon Lawrence portrayed the guest role of Liam's mother, Laura Van Kirk. Grant Show's wife Katherine LaNasa joined the cast in October 2018 in the recurring role of Ada Stone.

In November 2018, The CW confirmed that James Mackay would no longer be a series regular after the first four episodes of season two, but would return later in the season. The CW announced on February 25, 2019 that Sheridan would be leaving Dynasty to focus on "some personal family responsibilities." Sheridan said in her own statement that she was leaving to spend more time with her terminally ill mother in Los Angeles. She last appeared in the episode "Motherly Overprotectiveness". Elizabeth Gillies, who was already playing Fallon on the show, took over the role after Sheridan's departure near the end of the second season. Her three-episode portrayal was a temporary recast to give producers time to find a suitable replacement for Sheridan. In March 2019, Sam Underwood began appearing as Blake and Alexis's kidnapped eldest child, Adam. The same month, it was announced that Michael Michele had been cast as Blake's half-sister Dominique. Michele first appeared in "New Lady in Town".

Reception

On May 15, 2019, Dynasty ranked #5 on the list of most-watched series on Netflix in the UK, and #8 on the overall list of shows and films. The series ranked #6 the following week.

Critical response

In a review of the first nine episodes, Hidden Remote critic Georgia Makitalo gave the second season a letter grade of a B, noting that it's "more for the bigger story that I believe the writers are setting up for viewers," and that the grade could drop to a D if the storylines do not improve soon. Praise was given to the stunning and campy scenes that "make the show worth watching," such as The Great Gatsby inspired party and the Wizard of Oz dream sequence. Criticism was geared toward the lack of direction since selling Carrington Atlantic, noting that "Fallon needs something to do," as well as the Colbys' lack of screentime.

Makitalo was also disappointed in Alexis's development in the second season, stating: Шаблон:Quote
