Lefvenhjelm, Elina January 2021 (has links) When the Soap Opera Dynasty first appeared in the 80´s it was not so popular as Dallas or Falcon Crest. But the aim of Dynasty was to do things more provocative. Thus, one character was homosexual, one was a “bitch”, and there was more focus on the females. The characters lived a luxury life with much drama, love, and expectations. After one season it became increasingly popular and was awarded several times. In 1989 Dynasty ended after nine seasons, and in 2016 news about a reboot was appeared on the CW and Netflix. The producers of the reboot chosed to take the best pieces of the originals and make a modern twist on the new version; there were new actors with the same characters, except that they now chosed to change certain characters regarding sex, ethnicity and sexuality. The aim of this study is to compare the original with the reboot and se how the characters have changed over time with focus on sex, gender, sexuality, ethnicity and power; and also, to relate these alterations to societal change. To undertake this study, I use the theory of social constructionism, gender studies, media analyses, and role and identity. The methods are content analysis.
