Place in Popular Culture

Dynasty has inspired a rash of parodies and imitations. A much-discussed MAD Magazine parody, "Die-Nasty", ran in the mid-80's. In the mid-1990's the sitcom The Nanny featured Fran (Fran Drescher) and her rival CC (Lauren Lane) as Alexis and Krystle, complete with catfight. Collins herself appeared in another episode, but played a low-class, uncouth figure.
