Members Josh Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 Got this from www.tvshowsondvd.com Dallas: Season 6 will be out January 30, 2007 I for one hate the cover. They have so far stuck with having JR in the center or featured in 3-5 which is fine, but um why does Afton get the cover: Miss Ellie hasn't even had one yet. I digress.

Members Soapsuds Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 I can't wait. I have Seasons 1-5 already. I was surprised to see Afton on the cover. But I do love the Season 6 cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 The cover should have been the shot of J.R. and Bobby toasting the battle, with Jock's painting in the background, and then black and white shots of the car crash, the fire, the fight between J.R. and Ray, and Miss Ellie's breakdown. How is Afton on the damn cover?! What ddi she contribute to Dallas that season? This just tells you that whoever does the covers is NOT a Dallas fan.

Members EricaKane70 Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 Sue ellen should of been on the cover instead of afton. Well miss ellie was on the first cover along with everyone else. Jr has been on all the covers, sue ellen has been on 3, pam 3, lucy 2, etc. I really don't get why they put afton on the cover.

Members Drew Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 well, having been watching Dallas for the first time on DVD, I would imagine she has some kind of importance to the season considering the season 5 cliffhanger, and her relationship with Cliff at the time.

Members Roman Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 She did not have one thing to do with the battle for Ewing Oil, and that's coming from a fan who has watched each epiosde at least 10 times, so, IMPO, she does not have any place whatsoever to be on the cover.

Members Chris B Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 Afton was great, but she was NEVER an important character. I'd argue that her brother Mitch was more important at least to Lucy's character. Afton was just your standard girlfriend for Cliff. Miss Ellie, Donna and Ray all needed to be on the cover before her, but I doubt they will ever make it. I wonder who will be on the covers for the later years (which I loved). I hope they put Cally, April and Michelle on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 The later years. Ewww. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 Season 12 is particularly delightful. I was all set to hate those later years, but being a fan of daytime soaps helped me out. Most people have problems with their favorite characters leaving, but like real life (and daytime) I'm used to that. So I watched for what it was and saw many great storylines and new characters. I especially loved JR's long lost son, though the actor who cast him was terrible. The scene where he was revealed at the Oil Baron's Ball was brilliant. That was one of my favorite episodes of Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 After Pamela's car crash, that show went directly into the toilet. The season before was their last great season, rebounding nicely after The Dream Season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April I didn't like either, but I wouldn't be bothered by her being on the cover. Is michelle aprils sister, and if so she killed susan lucci's character on dallas, I definantly want her on the cover. She was the only nuChick that would of fitted in well with the divas from the early years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved Afton but as you said she was never important. I'm currently watching season 14 for the very first time and boy, the mighty have fallen. The show was totally unreckognizable during its final days. I liked the Paris episode with Susan Lucci but after that the whole show fell flat. As for the later seasons in general. IMO, the show got a major boost by killing Pam. I LOVED season 11 and season 12 was not too shabby either. But the increasing importance of Carter McKay and that ludicrous story of JR in nowhere (and jail) marked the end of the beginning. They rebounded from time to time but never had a full recovery. Miss Ellie's exit was it for me, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 I loved Afton ... but she is out of place on the cover. IMO, the cover would look at least a little better with say, Sue Ellen or Miss Ellie (who has yet to grace a cover, except for the family portrait) or even Cliff. And the cover would still look better if Pam's face wasn't half cut off. That's very distracting. But other than that ... I'm thrilled... Can't wait for Season 6!

Members Soapsuds Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 Agreed, although the 1987-1988 season was good but after Sue Ellen left the last two season were really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane70 Posted October 12, 2006 Members Share Posted October 12, 2006 The season where sue ellen punk'd jr is one of my favorite seasons, and yes the show totally sucked after she left. The only highlights of the last season are: susan lucci and barbara eden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
