Which showbiz dynasty are you most impressed with?

Please turn in your gay card.

OP, this site is teeming with eldergays. Show some fucking respect.

The Barrymores?

None of the above, or any others.

Another vote for the Barrymores.

The Redgrave/Richardson clan.

*

Yes, the Barrymores!

The Kardashians? Seriously? Instead of the Barrymores on your list?

None.

Lucy & Lucie (and Desi Jr)

The Hustons, in a walk. No one comes close.

Even the Coppolas owe so much of their achievements to Francis. The Hustons all have major successes even outside of family productions.

Frank and Nancy Sinatra

Kirk and Michael Douglas

The long history:

Lloyd Bridges and sons, Beau and Jeff

The Kardashians are not a dynasty, and should not be taken seriously or mentioned in the same sentence as true Hollywood dynasties.

The Duke Dynasty of course. Daisy, Uncle Jessie, Bo and Luke. Especially when Bo and Luke worked on their car shirtless.

A dynasty is not 2 people. That's either a fluke or nepotism, especially when one is a one-hit/one note artist, like Nancy Sinatra.

Dynasties extend beyond 2 generations. Judy was great and Liza is too, but unless Liza, Lorna or Joey have a mega talent kid somewhere, they're not a dynasty. They're a showbiz family.

I vote for "Dynasty" with John Forsythe, Linda Evans and Joan Collins with Al Corley and Heather Locklear.

[quote]Judy was great and Liza is too, but unless Liza, Lorna or Joey have a mega talent kid somewhere, they're not a dynasty. They're a showbiz family.

They are not simply a showbiz family. They are Hollywood royalty.

The Hustons, Coppolas and Barrymores should replace the Jacksons, Osbournes and Kardashians in OP's poll.

What an utterly ridiculous poll, OP. As mentioned above, the Barrymores and the Bridges.

The Judy G clan includes talented director Vincent Minnelli, Liza's dad, and her sister Lorna.

Can I really be the first to mention the Fondas? Henry, offspring Jane and Peter, Peter's daughter Bridget.

Who exactly is the "talent" among the Osbournes?

The Gummer-Streeps

John Adams...and John Quincy Adams

The Kennedys

The only impressive thing about the Kardashians is that they are all multimillionaires without one shred of talent (except for Caitlin who had a talent for sports when she was Bruce.) They’re soulless and useless yet globally wildly famous. Sickening.

Glad to see Houstons, Barrymores, Coppolas being mentioned!

I think if you had included the Barrymores they would be the clear front runners. Or the Fondas.

I’m a little surprised to see the Carradines in first place given the most successful one is arguably Martha PLIMPTON.

So I chose the Arquettes.

The Skarsgårds

The Lohan's.

The motherfucking Smith's, OP. Or are you some kind of fuckin' racist, huh??

The Hemsworths.

R32 is very funny.

R32, keep my bald deranged control-freak cunt's name [bold]outa your fuckin' mouth![/bold]

The Lawrences: Joey, Matthew, Andrew, Jennifer, Carol, Sarah, Welk, d'Arabie

The Barrymores

Judy/Liza

Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh, Jamie Leigh Curtis

Debbie Reynolds, Eddie Fisher, Carrie Fisher

Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson

Henry Fonda, Jane Fonda

Kardashians and Osbournes are Show Biz NOT Hollywood.

Excuse me?

Just adding my voice to the support for the Coppola, Barrymore and Huston families as multi-faceted, multi-generational dynasties.

Some of the others mentioned are simply nepotism. Not Liza and Judy though, as they are national treasures.

The Wayans and the Van Pattens…

The Windsors. They keep half of the entertainment industry alive for more than a century now. They are more showbiz than anyone on OPs list.

Barrymores and and Fondas.

Yes, and Hustons, R39! I’m a huge Walter Huston fan.

#29, John Carradine played in like 100 films.

The Van Dykes.

Dick, Barry and Shane.

R44, yes, I’m familiar with her father’s work. I’ve seen him in lots of things. Seen her in more and said she was “arguably” the most famous of that family. I wasn’t trying to rob of his accomplishments, but she’s had some pretty major ones herself. And by the time she’s his age, she’ll have more credits to her name.

R44, I just woke up and realized you posted about John Carradine and even thought you said “John Carradine”, my brain read “Keith” my apologies.

R47 was me at r46. Getting caffeinated and and still half asleep. She’ll never reach the number of credits of John Carradine, but today, I still contend she’s the most famous of the living members (and she still has more awards than John Carradine).

The Hedrens: 'Tippi' Hedren, Melanie Griffith, Dakota Johnson.

Plus, Don Johnson and Antonio Banderas married in.

THE SHEENS!!

There are other members other than Charlie!!

The Nelsons, anyone? Including those blond twins and Tracy of Square Pegs/Melrose Place fame?

R51, and through Tracy and the twins, extends to the Harmon Clan (Kristen, Mark, Tom, Elyse Knox), and to the Dawbers and DeLoreans.
