It's remarkable how an American audience embraced a British actress as Alexis. Just goes to show how well a sense of 'otherness' serves a villain.

People still remember the character to this day. Good thinking, producers!

Yes very interesting. You can see how though: Blake really was the centrepiece of that show and when Alexis came along it sidelined his limelight. Showbusiness is all about the masthead and who gets top billing. It's as simple as that so it makes sense that Joan stole John's thunder and he wasn't happy. He was also a very established television actor by that stage. Joan was always considered a B-grade film actress who really just got lucky when Sophia Loren wanted too much money to play Alexis and Joan wasn't even in fact a 2nd choice. She had done a part on Fantasy Island so she was familiar to the Spelling producers. All of that backstory and "pedigree" counts in showbusiness: the whole "who the hell is she?" Phenomenon. Joan got lucky essentially and it just worked. It's all timing and fate. I don't understand though why Joan says "I never understood Linda"... I think Linda Evans was a really beautiful personality and much too subtle and ethereal for the bawdy and unsubtle Collins. I always felt Linda had a lot of class and pedigree as a person and she carried herself so beautifully through all the scenes on Dynasty and was such a lady. She also retreated from the limelight once the show was over and I think was quite a truth-seeker, always on a spiritual path. Of course the very worldly Joan didn't understand that. But then, many wouldn't understand Joan either, and all that vulgar, vaulting ambition and egomania.

Length of production is not how you should judge a tv series because tv is a disposable commodity. It's about impact not length and certainly soaps aren't about grit but about aspiration and fantasy. Dynasty also had a superb ensemble cast which I can't say Dallas did apart from its 3 main stars. It also seemed to capture something about the 1980s in ways Dallas couldn't. Or didn't. It epitomised the times politically economically and socially, and created firsts in all sorts of ways : it gave voice to gays and older women and so on. So it had social impact. You can't say Dallas did the same thing, despite the "quality" you mention in its production values.
