The original English version of a clip already available on YouTube. Actor Al Corley's final appearance as Steven Carrington on "Dynasty" in the April 28, 1982 episode "The Two Princes."

Unhappy with the ABC network trying to straighten his groundbreaking gay character out (he was married off to Heather Locklear's character), the heterosexual actor engaged in a shouting match with the executive producer Douglas S.Cramer, after which both sides decided to part ways.

Almost a year later, the fearful 'Dynasty' producers cast Jack Coleman to replace Corley and married the character off to another woman in complete ignorance to Corley's exit scene.

  • Actually, Al Corley reprised his role as Steven in the "reunion" miniseries that aired in 1991.

  • I do mention that in a couple of other videos. I meant the original 9-season run of the series. Plus, I'm really trying to block that hideous "Reunion" out. I think the Pollocks and the Shapiros were high when they put it together.

  • Bo Hopkins and All Corley were the two best actors Dynasty ever had, and they were both gone within the first two seasons! This is by far my favorite Al Corley scene! Jack Coleman sucked big time in comparison.

  • One of the Best Scenes of the Dynasty Show but yes the Homophobes kept trying to make Steven Carrington Straight. Al Corley was the only Man to play this part and He really believed in the character. He even mentioned in a Documentary about the show that only other male gay character before his was Jodie from "Soap" and he wanted to make Gay People taken more realistically...... Hollywood has a lot to learn.

  • Steven snapped on everybody!

  • Al Corley and Pamela Sue Martin was great as Steven and Fallon!!! This scene was very good for being Dynasty, the most trashy show during the 80's. I love Joan Collins, but Falcon Crest and Dallas was so much better!

  • This scene was so ahead of its time for television... fantastic, moving performances!

  • I'M IN TEARS!!!!

  • The acting is so pathetic.

  • @miguelucho20008 Nope ,man. This IS good acting, comparing to nowadays films

  • This is almost Shakespeare!

  • Bad acting.

  • Respect for Al Gorley for taking on this role and really performning fine in this scene! wow!
