10 Best Shows Like ‘Dynasty’ To Watch If You Miss the Series

Dynasty has to be television’s one of the sassiest shows ever. The CW drama Series is a reboot of a 1980s series of the same name and it follows the wealthy Carrington family as they spend their lives creating and solving problems for themselves. While there is a lot of yelling, backstabbing, and unnecessary drama, Dynasty is absolutely entertaining in a guilty pleasure kind of way. The CW series ran for five seasons ending its run in 2022 so if you also miss the series here are some shows you could watch next.

Synopsis: Billions is a bold, contemporary drama that melds the worlds of ultra-wealth, influence and corruption as personified in two highly ambitious opposing figures: hard-charging, blue-blooded, politically connected U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades (Emmy and Golden Globe winner Paul Giamatti) and brilliant, calculating, blue-collar billionaire hedge fund king, Bobby “Axe” Axelrod (Emmy and Golden Globe winner Damian Lewis).

In fact, this was once her old neighborhood, until something bad happened that ruined her family and their reputation.

Arrested Development (Netflix & Hulu)

Synopsis: Holding the Bluths together just barely is son Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman), the only normal guy in a family that’s chock full of nuts. Hardworking and sensible, Michael’s certain he’s going to be given control of his family’s Enron-style corporation upon the retirement of his father (Jeffrey Tambor). The fact that he’s passed over instead for his mother (Jessica Walter) is only a blip when compared to his father’s immediate arrest for dubious accounting practices, and the resulting freeze on the family’s previously limitless wealth. Bereft of money, and even less family love, the Bluths have to band together in their moment of need–not easy when everyone’s looking out for number 1. In addition to his scabrous parents, Michael has to contend with his lothario older brother (Will Arnett), his basically useless younger brother (Tony Hale), his greedy twin sister (Portia DeRossi), and her sexually ambiguous husband (David Cross). Michael’s only comrade in sanity is his son George Michael (Michael Cera), but then again, the teenage boy harbors a secret crush on his cousin (Alia Shawkat).
