Tbh I agree, mostly because I feel like Alexis's rown hair and English accent is so integral to her character.  But it seems the show's taking a lot of liberties as it is so she might fit in. I'm pretty sure the lawsuit got thrown out but she definitely contested it for a fair few years there...

I did a quick Google search, and it popped up this information: when she first filed, it resulted in a hung jury, so she filed another suit, and the courts dismissed it. Her lawyer said they planned on appealing the decision, but so far, nothing has come up.

I'm surprised she's managed to land another regular role in a drama after what went down on Desperate Housewives...But now that she's joining, and as Alexis no less, I might have to give this show another chance.

I like her but I agree, theres better actresses out there for the role.

Not going to lie, there are other actresses I would have cast as Alexis. I'm not quite sure Nicollette is right for the role, especially after what went down at Desperate Housewives. Did that case ever get settled or is she still pursuing it?

What happened with Desperate Housewives? That show is amaaazing.

At the center of the lawsuit is a 2008 incident between the actress and the show's creator, Marc Cherry. She claims he hit her in the head during an argument on set and he later apologized. According to court documents, her lawyer notified Touchstone Television of the incident but didn't request that any action be taken against Cherry.

Sheridan claims Cherry killed off her fictional character on the show in retaliation for her complaints about the altercation. She first filed suit against Cherry, ABC, Disney and Touchstone in 2010, which eventually ended in a mistrial.

She later filed this lawsuit claiming Touchstone violated Labor Code Section 6310, which allows an employee to seek damages if he or she is terminated, threatened or discriminated against for complaining about unsafe working conditions.

Touchstone argued that Sheridan couldn't prove she made a formal complaint about the working conditions or that the company didn't exercise its option to extend her contract because of any such complaint. The company also says the decision was made to kill off Sheridan's character months before the run-in with Cherry.

she was nothing but like a big flirt on DH, admittedly she had a good character but the main characters were the 4 main girls. my fav was Gabrielle.

I'm sure Edie would have a lot to say about a hung jury...

Gabrielle is a queen! And her obese daughter is the true star of the show.

LOVE the show, was hooked when I saw Liz was apart of it

Sorry, but Nicollette will never compare to Joan Collins' Alexis.

I probably would never have given this topic one thought to be honest.  As I was never a fan of the series.  But as I was doing my normal web surfing the other night, I came across this weird and somewhat interesting site complete with a butt load of TV theme songs.  And lo and behold what do I find?   Yup.  You guessed it.  The theme song to the original series. 

 

For you listening pleasure. - If you can call it that - I present to you......the 1980's original Dynasty Theme song.  .....

The CW’s Dynasty this week drew 680,000 total viewers while slipping a precious tenth to the almost mythical 0.1. demo rating, marking a new series low with its second Friday outing.

The ignominious milestone — previously only reached by The CW’s own Cult* circa March 2013, the blogger @betagirl96 points out — came opposite March Madness coverage, which proved a bit stronger in the demo (1.2) than CBS’ usual Friday fare. (*Among in-season primetime broadcast-TV shows)

Leading out of Dynasty, Jane the Virgin (620K/0.2) was steady in the demo.

I wish I could say I was surprised, but I'd be surprised if this show lasts past this season.

I'm pretty sure it's heading to "CANCEL" right now. Even TVLine is classifying its renewal as a "long shot," which proves to me you cannot touch an original and water it down.

[From The Outside]

I Hope it doesn't get canceled i'm really enjoying it.

Now that The CW has renewed Dynasty I have finally be interesting in watching it. Though, it still irks me that they cut Ringer off when we deserved a second fucking season.
