Elena is too boring for a tired WTD story.

If they do insist on giving JR a daughter hopefully they cast someone with some energy. I remain only interested in John Ross, Sue Ellen and Bobby. With Emma and Rebecca following closely behind.

I'm OK with Christopher being killed off thanks to the botched casting and Pam won't be back anyway. But Lucas Wade should definitely return!

Statement from Jesse Metcalfe (Chris Ewing) "in classic Dallas fashion, the Producers and Writers needed a season ending shocker. After 3 great years, I was ready to move on and pursue other projects. It culminated in the perfect opportunity to surprise fans and deliver that shocking twust. I enjoyed my time on Dallas and am grateful for the opportunity to work with TNT, and I wish the cast the best".

I don't believe we ever saw any body in that car. They can hold a funeral but doesn't mean they can't bring Christopher back.

The finale was ok, I was not a huge fan of the Mexico story and since the entire finale was that I can't say I was riveted. JR had a daughter? Eh, so what. First he havibg a secret child John Ross's age is out of character since any child would immediately have to be brought home to mama for approval. Then, there was that secret son he never knew he had played by Sasha Mitchell that show seems to have written out of continuity. Just doesn't seem like such a big deal to me seeing how they have so many Ewings in the Dallas universe they aren't using.

Christopher's absence will be a loss for the show perhaps unless they just move Bobbie into the Christopher role as the main opponent of John Ross. This finale was a Bobbiepalooza anyway and Christopher had next to nothing to do so I guess it is possible. Plus, Bobbie is one character that picked up right where he left off all those years ago. The show is called "Dallas" but it doesn't always feel like it. Patrick Duffy is the only thing holding this show together as any sort of "Dallas".

Was JR's friend on the original series or is he a new character? Im talking the guy with the long hair that looks out for John Ross

I LOVE this show. Its SOOOO good this season

Judith Light was KILLING it the last few episodes. Her acting is on a whole other level than everyone else on the cast

LMAO at the Tracy/Anne shade

Nicolas called Elena, Ellie....huh? There was only ONE Ellie on Dallas. And she's pregnant? Really don't care for her to have a WTD story. Why did the car blow up before she got in it?

    • This can be difficult for a soap to depict. So far she's only shown an interest in women. Will a man come into her life? If she commits to a male, there will be  backlash, but if it's women only, them where is the bi/queer aspect? Personally, I would have liked a single gay male on the show dealing with hook ups/relationships etc. Smitty/Martin married with kids is limiting in those terms.
    • Of course, how could I have forgotten those thrilling episodes depicting the fire? Also we had the GCAC rooftop set that came out every Summer. Moving on to Friday's episode. Victor is propped in his chair, answers his cell and tells the caller 'Let him in'. Seconds later Kyle enters. So does Victor have security on the front porch? It would have been better had Victor taken the call, and then said to himself 'Well Kyle, let's see what you have to say'and fade out. Next scene Kyle enters, indicating that the first call was from the Ranch entrance and time had passed . Nit picky but I get frustrated when they do stuff like that.
    • Jordan was gone from '87 to mid-'89. He left just weeks after Robert's late '86 return.

    • I don't think Chelsea has a true label just yet. She's just finding out she has an interest in women. I think the awkwardness is aligned with the character as we've seen. This is the fool who keeps filming her family when embarrassing things happen and live streaming it. I actually think it's refreshing she isn't just jumping into a relationship  and that they're playing the beats of her trying to figure out who she is.
    • Wow, do I agree with you. Chelsea is coming off as ridiculous. All she does is look for a woman to date while not caring about her business at all. That she's bi is great, but they're not writing her like she's bi. She seems to be lesbian. Yeah, I know -- "no labels." I just don't find the writing for her story to be anything other than awkward.   -- I hope we get some diagnosis finality with Bill's trip to the hospital. I don't want to see these trips to the ER every other day. -- Naomi is going to blame herself for Bill's health problems? GMAB. -- Ashley doesn't read as a real nurse in the slightest. -- Another day, another rinse and repeat conversation with Derek and Ashley. YAWN. -- Kat is making mistakes, but she's fun to watch and listen to, regardless. -- I still think the Joey/Vanessa/Doug gambling story sucks. I know Doug is deeply in debt, but I don't like him acting this meek and submissive.  -- I'm not sure what Joey's plan was from the beginning, or why he had to seduce Vanessa at all to get his way. I'm not sure what Vanessa ever saw in Joey -- why doesn't he give her the ick? -- I'm fine with a story where Doug and Vanessa take out Joey.  -- The fades to commercials were pretty bad today.
    •   Victoria's house (that she long ago lived in with Billy) burned down (I think Aunt Jordan set it ablaze?). Victoria briefly moved into the ranch after the fire, with Claire, Johnny and Katie, I think? Mariah and Tessa and baby Aria had been living in the tack house but they bought a house we've never seen and moved there. Victoria, Claire, and Cole then moved into the tack house as soon as Teriah left. I guess Victoria's children Johnny and Katie would live with Victoria at the tack house eventually? But Johnny and Katie went to boarding school during the school year. Not sure if we'll see Johnny and Katie for the summer vacation or where they would live.
    • Victoria’s previous house burned down.    And I know why characters frequent Crimson Lights 3 times a day for brownies, muffins and empty mugs:   THERE’S PCP IN EVERYTHING. 
    • Today was a good episode, and the week for that matter. I think they've also done a better job with background music. The scenes in todays episode weren't as silent as they usually are in the background and it was noticeable. I think the show has found its groove well and I'm still invested.
