I think it does an amazing job of showing the settings where the stories take place. It boggles my mind that modern day producers and directors, just don't get it.
Yep, it was never the kind of thing I would have watched but they really knew how to grab your attention with the theme and great photography. People had a different way of viewing the world, aesthetically speaking, back then.
I watched this as a child with my grandmother, when the series started I called her and gave her glasses and lay on her lap, grandmother I miss you, your grandson loves you forever ... R.I.P.
I totally get it I was born in 1978 watched it with my mother and she also is dead I remember watching Dallas Dynasty and Falcon Crest with her best shows back then
haranoe synechism Sweetheart your time will come, and it is far better than the alternative. I don't mind being 45 years old and a cancer survivor of 15 years and counting.
I watched this series with my mum when i was a kid, she didn't understand what the people said and i had to translate it for her now and then. I miss those old days when my mum was healthy and happy
Same here. My mum would stay up very late night to watch every series till end. I miss her so much. He most favourite series. Rest in peace mum😪 I miss my childhood so much.. Now I’m watching the remake in Netflix.
My mom use to love this show she even got me into watching it at a very young age in the 80s & not to long ago thy had every episode on W/E but I couldn't watch it to many memories of my mom who I miss dearly love & miss u mom continue to rest in peace 🌠☄️🕊️☄️🕊️🌹🌷🌹
0:46 That beautiful moment when Pamela was revealed took my breath away ...and i was introduced to this show for the first time in 2020...never saw it before. It filled me with nostalgia wow!
you forgot the A team, Knight rider, McGyver,Alf My best Christmas present ever I received was the full serie dvd box of Dynasty. If I had to safe anythng in a fire ...guess what ....
I loved Moonlighting 🥰. The theme song for that was so mello and relaxing. I can't say that I (willingly) watched any of the shows that you named since I was an 80s baby. And let's face it.... how many children understands what's going on in soap operas or enjoys watching them? But I do remember the theme songs for all of them! I might even download a few episodes just to see if I'd enjoy them as an adult
Dallas was neither an "80s" show (began as a mini-series in the 1970s partly in the wake of the Oil Crisis of 1973) nor a "late night" show (Late Night with David Letterman, The Late Show starring Joan Rivers, et. al.).
Research alone suggests it was actually the 1970s where American culture peaked. The 1980s were the trailing off of the 1970s ...then it went down hill completely by the 2000s...America has been declining ever since.
Best opening credits for a tv show in this format! Also best theme song (besides Falcon Crest). These jingles in the very beginning gave me thrills everytime- i also loved that you already could see in these credits who is gonna appear in the episode. Was always excited when a new character showed up in it.
Now this was TV!! Simply groundbreaking. I watched but didn’t appreciate it as I do now. Continuity, creativity, character depth, story line, riveting season ending cliffhangers. You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t Blake Carrington. Then, just when you thought it couldn’t get better, Dominique Deveraux enters And elevates the show yet again.
All these 80s theme tunes and cinematic intros giving me almost painful nostalgia. Too beautiful. This was one of those that I bonded with mum over (RIP).
This theme is so good and bring me back in time when I couldn't wait to next episode to see what will happen with Alexis,Blake and Crystal and all others characherts. 80's bring and leave us lots of great and unforgettable tv shows which I'll always watch with some nostalgic because of good old times
This must be one of the most beautiful musical scores for screen ever. Right next to The Godfather, Love story, The Thornbirds and such. And design of the opening is stunning, too. We used to watch it as kids, waited a whole week for new episode. When we heard the opening score, we would storm down the stairs to the living room. No need to call us.
In Norway we had only one (state) broadcaster, and this would run every saturday. All family members would gather around the TV, and watch, with Norwegian subtitles. Good times in a world that has changed to the unrecognizable.
For some reason this theme popped into my head. I remember hearing this theme when sitting in the living room when my mom and grandmom would watch this show.
Miss these old theme songs makes me Soo sad😢 I miss those days sooo much my mawmaw in mom would still be here😢 we used to watch all these wonderful shows😢
***** I loved him more than Jock Ewing. With Jock it was always about getting paid but Blake knew how to enjoy himself out of The Office. He and Miss Ellie never went anywhere.
I WAS A CHILD THEN AND I REMEMBER HOW WE COULDN'T WAIT THURSDAY NIGHT TO WATCH THIS SERIES!!!! FOR WOMEN THE INTEREST WAS FOCUSSED ON THE ACTRESSES OUTFITS!!!!I LOVED THIS SERIES AND THAT SUPER FLASHY FASHION TREND! I REALLY MISS GLAMOROUS TV SERRIES LIKE THIS ONE!UNFORTUNATELY IT'S AN ERA WHICH WILL NOT COME BACK!
The first 35 seconds of this theme just exuded the feel of wealth and showing the only actor who portrayed the ultimate captain of industry. This show was a look into the 1% of the 1%. 💰💰💰💰💰
The most beautiful series ever that was recorded from that time, I was sitting together with my parents in the room waiting for the series to start, oh how happy and beautiful that time was, I was a child going to elementary school!!!! Greetings to everyone from Serbia and former Yugoslavia !!!!!
I knew a guy at work who used to tell his employers he had to have the night off when Dynasty showed...he even resorted to saying he had Bible study so he could get off for Alexis.
Oh how I miss those days ! I graduated in 82 and I remember all these very well. We were lucky to live in the 70’s and 80’s . They really were the best of times for my generation. America was in a much better place back then and jobs were all over, even in a small farm town I lived in. We had textiles, pencil factories and two large malls, (one has recently been removed but you could always get a job) a small country store up town, small ice cream and sandwich shop and every weekend the farmers would sell their goods.. Now that place is sad. We never had shootings. I do remember however, the Tylenol scare and it was a HUGE thing and it started the seal everything movement. We had great TV and movies and family got together for dinner every night. We waited to watch shows that came on. I was just telling my mother the other day how she use to require us to call here from the pay phone before and after the move at the mall and we would go to the arcade room and deposit quarters to play a game. And we got our soda from glass bottles that we had to return to get a nickel back. We played outside, went on a lot of great picnics, went camping and did not have air conditioning so we went to sleep with the windows open at night and we just dealt with it. We never had to wear helmets and padding to ride our bikes and we climbed tress and made forts in the forest and we turned out just fine. Yes sir! I would go back and do it again if I could. We were very lucky to have lived then.
I was watching the remake of this show, and mom was like oh, I know that song! I was like really? This is a new show mom. She like nooo it's a remake hun, I watched the original when I was younger, they use the same intro song! And she laughed. I said of course they would remake an old show, these Hollywood people are running out of ideas, and the only thing they would think of is remaking old shows/movies.
@@thefarsideoftherails7415 Are trolling? Have you even seen Voyager? Just search for Star Trek Voyager theme and you will hear that it is not the same. It's even on Spotify....
Been watching the show on PlutoTV Canada. Have to say season 1’s opening music sounds more beautiful, majestic, grandiose and epic on the orchestra than we are used to hearing before Joan Collins came on! But still one of the best TV theme music.

There seems to be so little love for great television theme songs these days. If you agree, raise your hand.

the intro for succession is really cool!! great theme as well

What an absolutely beautiful, moving piece of music. The 80's had the best theme tunes!
This brings tears in my eyes. My childhood was so much better time than my adulthood.

I can relate to this.. my Mum was a huge fan of this show and I remember watching it with her back in the 80s and buying her the dvds in recent years.
I remember watching this also with my mom and sister, it came on Wednesdays at 9pm.
You’re not alone!
My brother was alive and we would watch.
Same here. My mum would stay up very late night to watch every series till end. I miss her so much. He most favourite series. Rest in peace mum😪 I miss my childhood so much.. Now I’m watching the remake in Netflix.

Childhood memories of good times long gone. Brings tears to my eyes.
I remember this like it was yesterday.. I loved this music, the show and the care free times back then .. miss those days ..
Me too😀😀😀
They can't now because half of the show's time slot is commericals 😝
How old were you when you saw dynasty for the first time?
Reagan era greatness
Me too, from Finland
I love it! I was a child, it remmebers me on happy Time with my Parents and my younger Sister
One of my favorite shows of the 80's. Never missed an episode!❤
I’m not sure there’s ever been a more beautifully composed theme. Sounds like part Tchaikovsky and part Danny Elfman.
Well it was composed by Bill Conti, who also did music for Rocky and Karate Kid films. Such a great composer.
0:46 That beautiful moment when Pamela was revealed took my breath away ...and i was introduced to this show for the first time in 2020...never saw it before. It filled me with nostalgia wow!
The 80s will always have a place in my heart, but these shows bring back memories and feelings of a better day!!!!!
They had the best tv shows in the 80's pls bring them back
Yes they are!
how I wish I could go back in time to hear this as a kid..brings tears thinking that those times will never return
I know exactly how you feel because we have same wishes
Me too and i wasnt even born back then...wish so bad i can experience it just like the movies.
This, Dallas, Moonlighting and Falcon Crest are the epitome of what 80 late night shows were like.
you forgot the A team, Knight rider, McGyver,Alf
My best Christmas present ever I received was the full serie dvd box of Dynasty.

@@bonghunezhou5051 1981 to 1989.....seems very “80’s” to me!!!!!
Most definitely
Growing up in Haiti, I was fortunate to watch this...if only I could turn back time
This makes me reminisce of the Denver I grew up in when I was a kid. I miss it.
The 80s had the best shows/movies/music, one can argue that the 80s is the best time period of all time.
Yes, indeed. If I had a time machine, I'd go back to the '80s. That was definitely the decade I enjoyed the most.
Research alone suggests it was actually the 1970s where American culture peaked. The 1980s were the trailing off of the 1970s ...then it went down hill completely by the 2000s...America has been declining ever since.
Yes i grow up in the 70,s and 80,s i wanne go back
I got goosebumps right now. They do NOT make themes like this anymore.
Yes! The climax at 1:07 is everything! ❤
My younger sister and I watched the show faithfully from first episode to last. She has been gone now since 2011. Susan I love and miss you, always
my childhood days this was my mom favorite show rest in peace Mama I love you and I miss you until we meet again
*This* *is* *timeless* *masterpiece* *melody* *.*

This theme reminds me of being young when my grandad was alive
This theme song is so beautiful!
The Best of all 🙂👍 i love him so much
I prefer the one from the second season and after when the theme added trumpet.
This tune actually makes you feel something, to hear it now makes me miss my childhood. Love this
Me too
Me three ..! 😢 💔
a series from some more beautiful and happier times
There's an elite charm, a tragic longing overture to the Dynasty theme. Bill Conti knocked it out of the park.
You can't beat Bill Conti on this one.
Absolutely.
Ahhh the 1980s!!!!!😊
Rocky Racoon To me, the decade should’ve happened twice. :)))
@@scottjulie27 . At least 3 times!

I swear time stopped when this show was on. Aaaah, the 80s. Miss you, Girl! 😁😁😘😘
Nothing can beat the opening theme song of Dynasty..
Season 1 theme is so beautiful.
Dallas does.
This parody of the Dynasty intro is improved ruclips.net/video/4a5W0Pt81nA/видео.html
Falcon Crest.
The second season intro was the best.. Very intense and more of the trumpet which makes the theme ..The first season is second best.
By far the most beautiful opening piece of music ever on a nighttime soap! Absolutely glorious! Love it and love Dynasty forever!❤️
OMG how I miss these old shows...The openings were so bad ass!!!!!!!
Very same..lol..very much same
All these 80s theme tunes and cinematic intros giving me almost painful nostalgia. Too beautiful.
This was one of those that I bonded with mum over (RIP).
I use to watch this with my grandma she loved dynasty Dallas and Falcon crest
I did as well. God bless grandmas.
One of my favorite soundtracks ❤
What a Class show , great story and actors , big 80's legend . R.I.P John Forsythe - miss you .
TV doesn't make classic shows like this anymore.
Gota love those Carrington's of Denver!!!
Bullshit. They make a lot of great shows.

By far the best arrangement with the opening bars allowing one time to digest that fresh Coloradan air..
They don't make shows like this anymore
I hear that Two And A Half Men is just like this.
Charlie Sheen added the much needed drama to that show
thats a dam good thing
THEY HAVE NEW ONE DYNASTY
N Holt and they never will
In Norway we had only one (state) broadcaster, and this would run every saturday. All family members would gather around the TV, and watch, with Norwegian subtitles.
Good times in a world that has changed to the unrecognizable.
You knew so little of the horrors of life. The future doesn't look too bright either. Make the most of what you have. 😐
This show and Dallas reminds me of my early childhood and introduction to American culture.
Remembering my Dad and mom watching this show😭😭😭
Amazing 1:30 seconds dedicated to the opening them. Sad that TV series today no longer even have opening themes.
Good memories with my momma watching this..awww❤❤
Beautiful early theme.
It's missing something without the trumpet though.
This show was must-see TV back in the early 80s...
I had a dream i woke up from this morning and this was playing in my dream i remembered. Makes me cry because of the memories i have of my mom.
There will never be another, this show set the standard for all soaps...
Dynasty was what put Colorado on the world stage as far as TV is concerned...then 16 years later, South Park came along.
And what about Denver the dinosaur? :))
And Mork and Mindy? :)

That was my beautiful childhood with a lovely Dynasty!!!
Been watching the show on PlutoTV Canada.
Have to say season 1’s opening music sounds more beautiful, majestic, grandiose and epic on the orchestra than we are used to hearing before Joan Collins came on!
But still one of the best TV theme music.
miss these shows
I loved this beginning, nice melody , all movie songs and from novels are really wonderful.
Another classic, and one of my mother's absolute favorite shows to watch!!!
Holy nostalgia.
I like the way Bo Hopkins smiles in this opening theme.
me too,a real gentleman!!!!!!!!!!!
Bill Conti!
I used 2 watch Dynasty with my late grandmother on my mother's side. Childhood memories
Thank you for the video.I watched this while I was in my primary schools
The original and by far the best musical arrangement.
This is before my time, but everyone raves about this show!
One of the top music scores ever produced. Memories come alive.
Just beautiful....
This was the best version of the theme music to this sensational soap epic.
This brings back so many childhood memories!
Real intro with Class. These were the golden years!
Used to watch this show with my mum and dad, amazing times, they showed this to me and now I Can show them the remake ❤️❤️❤️
My favourite intro ever!!!
