Members Khan Posted October 15, 2010 Members Share Posted October 15, 2010 Two men were responsible for DALLAS' decline: Leonard Katzman and Larry Hagman. As soon as they managed to oust Philip Capice (who, granted, had allowed much of the nonsense from the "Dream Year" to go on under his watch) and they assumed complete and full control over the show, DALLAS became a shocking parody of itself.

Members DRW50 Posted November 6, 2010 Members Share Posted November 6, 2010 Sad to hear. I enjoyed the first Dallas TV-movie. I remember people were surprised at how successful it was but I thought it captured some of the fun that Dallas had lost in its last years.

Members All My Shadows Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 Another marathon on CMT tomorrow, this time focusing on Who Shot JR? http://www.cmt.com/shows/schedule/?day=02%2F28%2F11 They better be getting close to picking it up for the regular schedule, damn it. The Dukes has to be doing very well for them, they show it alllll the time now. Dallas is the perfect complement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 That's cool that they've been doing these mini-marathons, kind of a full circle moment since TNN's where Dallas got its first big shot in syndication (TNT first aired it on their Lunchbox TV with Knots, but they dropped it fairly quickly and ran Knots for no less than three or four rotations).

Members BKuzak Posted March 21, 2011 Members Share Posted March 21, 2011 I'm very excited that dallas's movies are comming out. I have several of the dallas seasons on DVD and the movies are like cake for the collection. Of course my collection ends when Sue Ellen left because i really wasn't interested in the final couple of seasons. i liked Cally but the old Dallas was gone. No Sue Ellen, No Donna, No Pam... It just wasn't the same. At least in the movies Sue Ellen came back. I'm also very iterested in that movie about how it all began with Dale Mikiff, i saw it a long time ago (probably on TNT)so i've gotten much more into Dallas since then and will understand it more. I know many people hated the way the characters looked as the 1980's got rolling, but i loved it. I thought expecially Donna's character was more logical when she started wearing the big permed hair and more stylish clothes because she was more into politics by that time. and it showed why she and Ray started to grow apart. Sue Ellen i always thought had style. Who else would cut her hair short (off camera) in the bathroom while visting Cliff Barns who was in a coma! She really knew how to own those shoulder-pads when she walked into a room, or ran out of one. I admit the ladies clothes did sometimes get a little over the top but that was sign of the times. I'm sure people in "real life" coppied what the ladies of soaps were wearing or doing. That's why Donna mills put out her make-up video. She said that she would hear from people who used to put the VCR on pause to copy her make-up from an episode of the show for when they went out for the evening or whatever.

Members quartermainefan Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 The one I would like to see again is Dallas: The Early Years with Jock, Ellie and Digger. That never seems to be repeated anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 22, 2011 Members Share Posted March 22, 2011 It's out on dvd in April. I am picking it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 I love this initial promo, which makes it all sound so serious and such a far cry from the fluff nighttime soaps would become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
