Dallas 2.0: Discussion Thread

Both Christopher and John Ross are whores like both their daddies.

I'm not too crazy about the theme song arrangement, but I do love that they kept the final chorus intact (with the little brassy stings -- yall know what I'm talking about!). It seems Henderson and Metcalfe will be alternating top-billing.

Oh, and in Metcalfe's defense, I think he did a damn good job in the scene with Elena before the wedding.

Dire, that is all I can. Pretty people and bad acting galore. It will be hit!

Why does Jordana Brewster look so odd? Did she stop eating? Did she have work done?

YES!!! JR's still got it!

He sho do! Love that man!

How soon before we get Vicky Principal on the phone?! BS can go back to Desperate Housewives!

Pretty people and bad acting doesn't help CW. I think if the numbers are good it will be based on all the promotion. It set up a story and buzz the bad actors can't do themselves.

Adele is so out of place on Dallas.

Yes it is

John Ross is a bitch like his daddy and a drunk like his momma.

Hahaha...I was thinking the same thing

John Ross is a bitch like his daddy and a drunk like his momma.

And God I love him for it. I can't help it. I always love the "villain." It's why I always loved Erica, JR, Alexis. I love me some bitchy goodness.

In my opinion there's no performance that feels distractingly off or nonbelievable amongst the new quintet. But I'm especially pleased with how good the writing has been so far. It's compelling without being deathly serious, soapy without being overly ridiculous. I am sold for now.

Ima need for JR to never ever get those eyebrows clipped or groomed. Let them suckers grow like Dali's mustache!

And I'm totally in the camp that's sold on the show so far. The acting is acceptable for me, and the action is definitely keeping me engaged.

Last episode..maybe??

I think the show has done a good job setting up style over substance. The characters are meaningless, the actors cutouts. It works for now, and for their sake I hope that it keeps working, because Brewster, Henderson, Strong, and Metcalfe aren't going to learn to act or get charisma anytime soon.

I'm not crazy about the theme music either....oh well.....cant have it all

LOLOLOL...cant stand his eyebrows...he has had them like since the reunion movies

I think it's interesting how everyone is trying to double cross everyone else (like John Ross trying to double cross JR).

If John Ross didn't send the email to Elena, I wonder if maybe Christopher's new wife sent her the email? Maybe Christopher's new wife schemed to hook up with Christopher and become apart of the Ewing family. Maybe she set her sights on marrying an Ewing and decided to go after Christopher.

I think that JR has had some good lines tonight. I definitely want to continue to see more of him.

Better than most of the Knots Landing theme song variants

Tommy Sutter better be savin' that ass for Rob Ewing.

I think you are being a tad too critical Carl lol though im not saying your wrong in the slightest. Could they have done better casting? Hell yes but I think its working so far. Im trying to have an open mind. Ill drive myself nuts being overly critical of what we cant control.

I want to see more of Tommy. And i cant believe they glossed over Lucy and Ray reacting to South Fork being sold. Sigh.
