OFF TO A DULL START, "Dynasty's" destiny is hard to predict, but we can predict it won't have an oil company for a sponsor. Blake's son accuses him of selling the country out by making oil investments abroad and not developing our resources, Then, of course, there are titillating scenes between Fallon and the chauffeur. And the predictable conflict between Matthew and Blake.

Bo Hopkins, as Matthew, looks bored with life, but Forsythe gives the show a touch of class. "Dynasty" was written by Richard and Esther Shapiro. They're also the executive producers. Because of their fine track record Strangers," "Minstrel Man," "The Cracker Factory," "East of some improvement is possible as the weeks roll along. If not, the Carringtons' dynasty will surely come to an end.

A FAR MORE IMPORTANT program tonight at 9 on Channel 13 is "The World of Mother Teresa," hosted by Joyce Davidson Susskind. Written by Ann Petria, it takes you to India where this saintly nun of Calcutta attends to the poor, the lepers the abandoned. The Nobel Peace prizewinner is seen visiting the leprosy hospital she founded in TitagariV an orphanage she established in Shishutbaven and the House of the Dying and Destitute in Kalighat Where does she get her energy? She attends mass and receives communion every day. Her message? Love. For her it's the food of life, the riches of mankind, without which we are truly poverty-stricken.

Driving home her beliefs like Knute Rockne, she lectures, talks to the poor about human dignity and the importance of loving one another, touches everyone in reach. Don't expect to see a fragile woman she carries out God's work like a dynamo. The interview at the end is weak. We wanted to-hear every word she said, but the background noises made it impossible. Also, Mrs.

And in NBC's "Flamingo Road" there are the Weldons (Kevin McCarthy and Barbara Rush). TV's gold rush continues tonight on ABC (8 to 11 p.m.) with the premiere of "Dynasty," which, in its initial installment, is rather plodding.

Like "Dallas," it's about the conflict between two strong-willed oil families the very wealthy and greedy Carringtons and a middle-class family headed by Matthew Blaisdel (Bo Hopkins), who works for Blake Carrington. Blaisdel walks away when his friend Lankershim (Dale Robertson) is beaten up by Blake's boys. HANDSOME, GRAYING John Forsythe, to the manner born, plays the wealthy oil baron Blake Carrington. He's one of those unscrupulous charmers vhose power and money speak for him. Unquestionably, he is the best part of the series.

Looking like a leading man from the '30s, he owns a stable of race horses, a magnificent home, a private jet and wall to wall money. He's formidable, fearless and is accustomed to getting what he wants. What he wants in tonight's opening three-hour installment is Krystle Jennings (Linda Evans), a former secretary with his corporation and girlfriend of Matthew's. Matthew has been in the Mideast until things heated up and he was forced to come home. He has a young wife, Claudia (Pamela Bellwood), who is in a sanitorium, and a young daughter Lindsay (Katy Kurtzman).

Oh, yes, Blake has a couple of other children. His sensitive son Steven (Al Corley), who was in the Mideast with Matthew, is a homosexual, FIBERGLASS BELTED Whitewalls 2 for polyester cord SIZE E78-14 PLUS F.E.T. $2.73 each No Trade-in Needed BLACKWALLS $4 LESS PER PAIR and his daughter Fallon (Pamela Sue Martin), upon whom he dotes, sleeps with the chauffeur and anyone else she fancies.
