To be completely honest, the original run of Dynasty was way before my time. So far behind, in fact, that when The CW decided to reboot the series last year, I had no idea it was a remake. What I did know before that, however, was that Fallon Carrington, played perfectly by Elizabeth Gillies, was the queen of all queens.

Fallon Carrington is one of those characters you know is bad news, no matter which run of Dynasty you’re watching. She is s a troublemaker on all fronts. She’s feisty, overprivileged, and manipulative… so why is it that I still root for her? I mean, she is also incredibly intelligent, business-savvy, and ambitious. Maybe there’s a bit of fellow Slytherin bias here, but from what I’ve watched so far, it seems like everyone else is just as bad. So, if I can’t hope for the best for the main protagonist of a show, what’s the point?
