Alert! The brilliance of the Rita storyline completely underrated by angry fans!

[colbyco]

I liked the whole crazyness about it ... liked how Linda acted Rita ...I could feel/see the difference ... maybe it was too long and it would have been great to pair Adam & Sammy Jo and have them kidnap Krystle. Sammy Jo wanting money and Adam control about DC. I can see Adam controlling Rita and giving her pills ... after Adam marrying Sammy Jo and both living in the mansion and controlling DC Alexis sents Morgan Hess after them. When Sammy Jo throws Alexis out of the mansion Alexis rescues Krystle....

I combined "derived" and "arrived at" and came up with "derived at."

LOL. If Krystle had a monster in her head since season 2, why didn't Blake think of that when Krystle acted strange during season 6? Maybe it had started.

Well, she already had given birth to the monster in season 5 and he assumed it was now out of her.

Sad, but true Kwyshteena faked her heart condition just because she liked the idea of that bloody heart being ripped out of that poor girl's body. So nasty!

Last season, on the Dynasty forum:

The surrealism of the doppelgänger, when DYNASTY broke the soap rule: "it doesn't have to be believable, as long as it's not impossible"

At the time I posted this message I didn't even know about the two Coopers
The evidence is overwhelming, this is not some fanboy interpretation. RITA changed everything (well, Sammy Jo, to be more precisely).

Furthermore: DYNASTY had three Michaels, TWIN PEAKS had three Mikes.

Doesn't it make perfect sense that David Lynch was inspired by BOB & MIKE Pollock?
I've always known that I was a fan of the right soap opera.

He's dead....wrapped in plastic!

If Rita was Iris ,Krystel's sister?
She leave baby Sammy Jo to became an actress
They told to Sammy Jo,she was dead
Sammy Jo meet her in NY

When I first saw the scene where Sammy Jo catches a glimpse of Rita I thought we would learn that Rita was actually Iris.

 

[Willie Oleson]

I picture Miss Sally K as Sammy Jo's (teenage?) mama.

 

[Grant Jennings]

I always pictured Valerie Perrine as Iris who fakes her death and heads out to Hollywood with hopes of becoming a movie star. She did have a career in films, the kind they make in San Fernando Valley.

After Sammy Jo reconnects with her mother, scandalous pictures like this one depicting Iris naked in a hot tub with six men (!) would surface.

But-but-but...I don't know her!

Did you see the Christopher Reeve Superman movies? She was Eve Teschmacher. Before that she was nominated for Best Actress at the Oscars and Golden Globes for her role as Dustin Hoffman's wife in Lenny; she won the award at Cannes. Valerie also starred in Can't Stop the Music opposite some guy named Bruce Jenner. She's had numerous TV roles including one of the many wives of Detective John Munch (Richard Belzer) making her character, Brigitta Svendsen, part of the Tommy Westphall Universe.

One of them, and I only remember Ursa.

Aaah....that Valerie Perrine.

Poor Krystle.

Since she met the Carringtons, she was raped, shot at and lost a baby, almost made into ashes, kidnapped and had to cry in an attic for weeks, and finally she lost it and played spin the plate in the dinning room.

No wonder the woman needed alone time in the Swiss Alps. When she did come back, she was messed yet again in her head (thanks to knowing the Carringtons) and was programmed to kill Blake. That woman and her head never got much peace around the Denver clan.

Should this be changed from "angry fans" to "ignorant fans".

A thing we can discuss for 84 other years

 

[Zara]

Everyone were so causal about Krystle being impersonated by a woman who even had her voice!


-At least, we now know the woman's name. Rita Lesley.
-Poor Krystle.
-Well, sh*t happens.
