6. Dynasty
Never was a show more centered on face slapping and drink throwing that Dynasty, one of TV’s most enduring primetime soap operas, and the prototype for Spelling’s 1990s teen drama empire. Dynasty followed the trials and tribulations of a Denver-based oil magnate and his scheming, backbiting, shoulder-pad loving family. Few shows in television history were quite as eager to slap and fountain-dance the members of its leading cast. Perhaps that’s why Dynasty’s popularity made it one of the most lauded and highest rated shows of the 1980s.
