As the current season of the drama series Dynasty comes to an end, a fool and his money will soon be divided. The CW confirmed today that one of television’s wealthiest families will not return for a second season, along with a slew of other shows including remakes Charmed and 4400, as well as newbies In the Dark and Naomi. The Carringtons are a wealthy family whose members are constantly fighting over money – as well as their pursuit for genuine relationships with people who have no hidden agendas.
With Season 5 currently airing, there’s a chance that Dynasty may reach a satisfying conclusion: it all hinges on how much they’ve filmed so far and whether the remaining episodes allow enough breathing room to wrap up the season’s arcs. Elizabeth Gillies and her onscreen father and fellow costar Grant Show honored the show’s 100th episode with a video of themselves and their onscreen father and colleague costar Grant Show leaping up and down on one of the Carrington’s pricey couches a few weeks ago. However, we have no idea how far Season 5 filming has progressed – it could be over already. To get a clear image and find out if the series will finish with an open ending or not, we’ll have to wait for news from series producers Josh Schwartz, Stephanie Savage, and Sallie Patrick.
Rafael De La Fuente, a series regular and fan favorite, took to Instagram to commemorate the completion of the Dynasty cycle. He shared a photo of the cast partying on set with the words “A true honour.” It’s been a wild and wonderful ride. My appreciation is unending, even though Season 5 will be the final.” De La Fuente portrays Sam Jones, a gay man who started out in Carrington’s life as a gold digger but ended up buying and running an elegant hotel in Atlanta.
