Will Winterthorne give viewers a sweet guilty pleasure?

Life is about to get sweet.

Winterthorne is a new online drama about the machinations of a powerful family ruling over a candy empire. For viewers who long for the opulence and intrigue of the big night time soaps of the 1980s, Winterthorne seems poised to take the baton long left unattended by the Carringtons and the Ewings. Over 20 years have passed since Dynasty and Dallas  bid adieu to network airwaves. TNT recently canceled the Dallas reboot which was popular for viewers for a few years. Will Winterthorne enjoy greater success?

Winterthorne stars Martha Madison, Michael Caruso, Linda Gray, Gordon Thomson, Kathleen Gatti, Kirsten Storms, Josh Thrower, John-Paul Lavoisier, Kevin Spirtas, Conrad Bluth and Ron Hanks.

Winterthorne premieres online on August 27.
