Pej Vahdat Joins the Cast of ‘Dynasty’ as Dex
CW’s Dynasty is beefing up its cast with the news that Pej Vahdat has been cast in the role of “Dex”.
As Dynasty fans know, the character of Dex Dexter was originally played in 1983 through1989 by the late Michael Nader in the ABC version of the primetime soap opera.
Now in the 2022 version, Vahdat’s Dex is said to be a ‘suave, handsome, charming hedge fund manager.’ According to Deadline, Dex has a chance encounter with Alexis (Elaine Hendrix) which will change her life in more ways than one.
Joan Collins, the original Alexis Carrington and Michael Nader made quite the on-screen pair on the original Dynasty.

The role of Dex is said to be “heavily recurring”. No word yet on when he will first be seen in the role. Stay tuned.

Michael, I enjoyed your radio show last night. It was so great to hear from your three guests And how lucky were those call-ins to be able to speak with JP, Kristen, and Melissa. Each one was very out going in their reparte’ with the guests. I do have to say though, I tried to call many times and couldn’t get through. But I did listen to the full 2 hours and thought they were very easy to talk to for those that were able to get through.I understand that your show was number one on that network. The show… Read more »

Trevor I think you did Todd the best!! You had the moves, facial expressions and I just think you played it perfect. I know the long die hard fans watched Roger back and he’s okay but he is certainly no Trevor St. John. Thank you for all the years you played such a wonderful Todd.
(Barb, I didn’t know U were nearby. We got to get together for lunch toward our movement). Lol
This I got off another forum….is there truth to this Michael or any possibility?? ‘Hey Guys, Remember the hints I gave you yesterday about the two more on their way to GH from OLTL? Many of you guessed Trevor St John (especially after what I reminded you about today along with the hints from yesterday). I told you again and again that Victor was not dead, Todd did not kill him, and that you would see him again before the show closed (we have come full circle today). Dry those eyes my fellow Trevor St John fans.. You will have… Read more »
I read this to ,I hope it is true ,been searching everywhere for any news for one life to live,and I keep comming back here because, I feel right at home.and at 2 oclock tomorrow it will be very strange not to make my daily visit to landview,I am very sure I will not be alone ,so right here is where I will be,michael i loved your radio interview call in ,there are no words to say ,keep up the abc fight ,give agnes nixon her stories back ,theres so much to do,I cant give up.
Hey barb; See you been busy today, voicing your opinions. I just got back in. Funny, you said you will be here tomorow at 2pm. U have to tell people since you post allot to send soap to abc and canel cable for a Dish (Disney channels make no money) Facebook petition, and list the telephone number. Do a copy/past from mind and place it in your draft inbox, and go to it when you post on here, post it, and than finish whatever else you are writing above. We gota keep this message Hot and alive.
Deb, a few things: 1. What did you remind them of today, bc I dont see a post for that. 2. You gave hints, yesterday? 3. Where did you get your hints from? Who is this columist you are speaking of, that you believe nothing from? 4. When and WHO said 2 more were on their way to General Hospital? I have not heard that anywhere. Can you answer all 4 please? Yes, I’M A DIE HEART, Trevor St. John fan if you have been reading my post. And it’s bc he is just an awesome actor. He had an… Read more »
What r u talking about reminding who of what??
You gave hints yesterday?? What does that mean??
You are making NO sense. I owe nobody an explanation.
I simply quoted something from Raven.
Curious?? Go check out her column.
Her columns are usually right.
Raven??
Whose columns?????? You answered BUT failed to answer the questsion that I was asking. Whose columns???????
I want to know to ,I read it on facebook dont remember where ,one of the soap sights and I think the person was writing for someone else,so i have no clue who the writer is but I did see it ,word for word as deb says .called abc again I wonder if they listen to there voice mail.Ill go there again tomorrow ,I also went to a news place they were talking about the revolution and we are like hamsters ,well that pissed me off so gave them a piece of my mind in a nice way of course,saying… Read more »
Raven’s. She stated that TSJ would be going to GH but nothing official has been confirmed by the network.
Raven is not a reliable source. She’s just speculating like the rest of us are doing on a daily basis.
So what that she was right about All My Children and One Life to Live being cancelled. She just predicted what many have predicted would happen.
Below is the “who and what”, I am talking about. You wrote below, you gave hints yesterday. I, am simply asking hints from where, whom, and where did you get the hints from. I am following the conversation from your written words below. Therefore it you dont have the answer’s to your OWN post, quite frankly, you are making NO sense! You’re on here conversating, conversing, giving information WE ARE ALL SEEKING, and then you have the NERVE to say, U “owe nobody no explanation! ” What? Then don’t give information that leads into a discussion. Now THAT MAKES SENSE.… Read more »
Iloveabcsoap………take a freakin pill!!
Are you human??
Your not too bright. If you see where there are quotes, that is someone else talking.
The entire post was someone else talking.
Wouldn’t it have been easier just to ask where the post came from instead ‘numbering’ points to me??
Go take your meds.
Eat Cheese and be “Raven” mad.
(See, my work, this is what I am talking about).

Case NOT Closed. You are still an inbelsile. Look up that meaning!
Hey everyone!
Let’s stop shouting insults at each other, please!
Thx
Michael
I don’t attack, I Educate…! : )
CLASS CLOSED!
Your in no position to educate. You didn’t understand a post and the result is you put blame elsewhere.
Anyone reading these posts will see how foolish you are making something out of your own lack of intelligence.
Why don’t you go buy a TSJ doll? Give you some kind of a life?? lol
Im looking for a house md doll ,does anyone know where I can buy one?Im a doll collector.I like both of the todds ,well victor and todd ,that was a very good Idea by ron.that way we can have them both ,because both actors are liked by the fans ,did everyone send there soap to abc ? sign the agnes nixon swan ,get her soaps back ,and there are petitions all over the place on facebook ,we are going after abc.we cant stop nagging them ,someone over there has to hear us .and call abc 818 460 7477/663 and 818… Read more »
Dear Michael, Thank you so much for the radio interviews. Thank you to JP, Melissa, Kristen for taking the time to call in.:) I just want to say to the actors , thank you! The last two weeks I have been in denial about OLTL ending. Until I saw Thursday”s show, beautifully done! Wow! Erika Slezak’s speech was like a thank you to the fans . It summed up the way I’ve felt about this show for over 20 yrs! It felt like the actors and writiers understood the love and sorrow we feel and are sharing theirs with us.… Read more »
Yes, Michael is pretty talented with those questions. And awesome to think of this wonderful, interactive site that is always bursting with energy, you can feel it.
very sad after 43 years, so many memories one life to live will surely be missed!!!!!
Michael this interview that you posted is makings its way around to different sites.
Congrats on a job well done!

Great Show, Michael! 😀
Michael
I honestly enjoyed the show and hearing from all 3 special guests. From my perspective all three of them have given Emmy winning material each to numerous to name. I wish that they all submitted their best work. The cast and crew at OLTL are all appreciated so much.
Michael,I also appreciate what you bring to the soap opera genre.It’s like giving back.:)
Michael I just got this off GHHappenings and I hope you don’t mind me sharing it. This may put some ‘rumors’ to rest for now. Kassie DePavia (Blair Manning, OLTL) posted the following on her Official Website: “I must say the ads and press release by ABC is a little misleading and I feel I need to clarify to all my friends, family and fans…wondering when I’m moving to Los Angeles. Frank Valentine, GH’s EP, asked me to come out for a couple of shows in February and I’m thrilled. Not only will I get to work with a fantastic… Read more »
