DVD Review: Dynasty - The Third Season, Volume One
Published June 28, 2008
Paramount recently released a three DVD set, Dynasty - The Third Season, Volume One which contains the first twelve episodes of the season. Now, Dynasty wasn't really about the acting or the heart-tugging storylines; it was about the power, greed, scheming, and the fast-paced drama. On that score, Dynasty - The Third Season, Volume One delivers in spades. Kidnapping, deathbed marriages, poisoned paint, infidelity, and Heather Locklear as Sammy Jo!
