Dallas 2.0: Discussion Thread

Well, what do those four have in common?

I thought tonight's was another good episode and I find in hindsight the story is starting to be strong enough where I am able to enjoy the show even without much of a nostalgia factor. JR and Sue Ellen were barely in it, but the story held my interest anyway. The weakest link is not the young people, it is Ann. Unless it turns out her child is actuallly someone we know, I don't see the point.

Seems like her kid could be Rebecca or Tommy, although she's done a good job of hiding it, if that's true and she knows it.

So Im guessing Ann is Christopher's biological mother?

I dont like how John keeps calling Veronica Marta when he knows thats not her name and the secret has been out

Not used to seeing Lucy look so old

Gary mention! Id love it if he made an appearance. What about Ray Krebs though. He never got any shares in Southfork?

The quad is sooo good on paper and has real potential but the casting of Elena ruins it for me. She has no chemistry with either man and I cant tell if she is supposed to be the heroine bc early on I got more vixen like vibes from her and she just doesnt seem right for the part. Its hard to root for her. I do kinda feel for Rebeca though. PS, hate her brother

Is Linda Gray on contract? She's barely on and isnt featured in as many episodes as the other vets

Just saw the end to last week's show. Why did Annie start cryin when she saw the letter. That seemed a bit extra

Um does ANYONE know?

No, Kristen Shepherd was Christopher's bio mom. She was Sue Ellen's sister. No way they will change that.

Cheap, they have not revealed why she was crying.

Thanks. I didnt watch the original series. Thought they just found him

I think its Rebecca. She seems to have bonded with that dullard.

No, Kristen and J.R. had an affair. Bobby thought the baby was JR's and brought him home to Southfork. Pam saw him and thought Bobby arranged a private adoption (she had two miscarriages and was desperate for a baby). Bobby didn't have the heart to tell her the truth. J.R. found out and blackmailed Bobby. Turns out the baby was by a drug dealer named Jeff Fairday. In a way it's odd that Sue Ellen rarely mentioned that Chris is her biological nephew.

I was thinking the same thing Julia. A little surprised that the Kristen/Christopher/Sue Ellen/Who Shot Jr.? connection hasn't gotten an expository work in for newer viewers. Meanwhile, I light up whenever Sue Ellen pops up on screen. Her onscreen presence is strong, strong s/l or not.

I got mini-excited when John Ross mentioned Gary to Lucy then remembered how TS turned down the offer. Then my brain started doing pretzels when Rebecca was revealed to be having twins, but she's obviously not Betsy.

I really hate Bobby.

I'm assuming the Venezualans took out Marta/Veronica.

I thought she killed herself for revenge against John Ross

Anyone else think Vicente looks like Ted King?

It seems like it should be an easy enough matter to clear up IF the killers didn't know about the video camera - the camera proves that she was alive when John Ross left.

I was distracted by my children when I was watching, but the two men who headed to Marta's room - one of them looked vaguely like the same guy who was working with Cliff, the Pakistani guy JR had Bum researching. Am I seeing things, or was that him? If so, that would be an interesting twist.

Anyone else think Vicente looks like Ted King?

Yes. And a little like the DWTS guys.

Meanwhile, how in the hell could John Ross be blamed for this when he was obviously in the elevator on his way down when she landed? Couldn't a quick check of the security tapes resolve that?

I think its Rebecca. She seems to have bonded with that dullard.

Yeah, and wasn't the baby in the pic a little girl? I'm not sure. At any rate, that's kind of a lame/weak/obvious twist, imo. I hope it's something less obvious and juicier than that.

My theory has always been that Rebecca is really Pam's daughter somehow.

Bobby is such a damn goody two shoes. I would have totally opened the damn envelope.
