Everything Is Changing
With very few episodes left of season 1, Jen and Charity are eager to get to the more soapier and glamorous season 2 so they have decided to go over 2 episodes in one for the next few weeks. The writers have also seemingly decided the show needed to be soapier because the ladies notice changes in characters and storylines shifting. There's so much to cover in this long episode but it has it all: forgiveness, confrontations ,celebrations, singles bars and an Aspen disco where Brian Dennehy appears! Enjoy hearing us break it down.

We Hate This Episode!
Trigger Warning! We hate the episode! Forget the end ever happened! Ok, well we do have Lindsay's epic freakout to have some laughs over! (get thee to a microfiche!) There is some important story of course but after a scene with Fallon and Ted in the PJ you can turn your tv's off and just listen to Jen and Charity chat about it. We do not go into details at all but there is marital SA at the end and we do our best to discuss that quickly and talk about how insanely prevalent these storylines were on 80s soaps and how we feel about it. Make no mistake though as you will hear we don't feel this storyline was necessary at all and it doesn't come into play after this season so FORGET IT HAPPENED!! It is after all only a silly soap opera. (still listen with care)

Loyalty (The Bordello pt.2)
In part 2 of Jen and Charity going over episode 8 The Bordello, we see that there are major loyalty issues for many of our characters. Blake is feeling a loss of loyalty from his son while Fallon pleas for her brother to stay in Denver. Claudia is feeling distance again from Matthew as he refuses to confide in her his inner most feelings. Krystle reaches out to Doris for help in some sneaky dealings and Doris calls her out. You will gasp at the soapy and shocking ending of this episode!

Meanwhile at the Carrington Mansion Krystle's early morning hours are met with an impromptu business meeting with Blake and his lawyer Andrew, will she sign some papers making her a corporate officer in Denver Carrington? There's lots to unpack so Jen and Charity have made this a two parter. Enjoy part 1 of our breakdown of Episode 8 The Bordello.

A Very Special Episode of Majestic Theme Playing
In this episode we decided to have a discussion at first about what we've researched on the storyline of Steven Carrington. We give you information from an article that we will link below on the behind the scenes of how Dynasty went about dealing with and writing for a gay character on a major prime time show in 1981. In this episode we see that Steven is outed and bullied by one of his co workers while at the same time trying to deal with an ex boyfriend who has resurfaced. Watch and listen with care. That's not all though there are still some lighthearted laughs in this episode to be had with Michael taking a clumsy stab at flirting in British and Fallon talks Jeff into taking the longest lunch ever and .... well... it's in the title but listen and watch anyway!

Manipulation or True Love?
In part two of the pilot Oil we are introduced to Matthew's family, his wife Claudia and his daughter Lindsay. Charity and Jen both agree Matthew is being manipulative with them but our hosts have an absolute disagreement about Blake's romantic overtures towards Krystle. A very serious conversation between Blake and Stephen occurs, TW(trigger warning): contentious parental relationships with LGBTQ children. On a more light hearted note we see wedding preparations begin and a cake topper goes missing. Who took it and will this wedding actually go forward?
