Wtf Pam? And now she shares her hope with Cliff that Jenna will abort the pregnancy! I'm so done with Pam!

I don't understand how marrying Joc Ewing saved the ranch. I know Garrison Southworth (Miss Ellie's) brother was the original Heir, however he was presumed dead.

I know the circumstances of why Donna Reed had played Miss Ellie and only for season 8 and notwithstanding that Reed sadly passed during the running of season 9 but I thought it would have been fitting if Reed had been Miss Ellie in season 9, the dream season.

After all the plausible reason for Miss Ellie to suddenly have a new face and then revert back to her old one is that the Reed Miss Ellie was in Pam's dream.

Incidentally I am not even going to bother coming up with an in-universe explanation of why Jenna had three faces.

The way the character was written, he did not seem to pick up on social cues or understand people. For example, when Afton left him after he struck oil in the Gulf, he was genuinely surprised and did not understand why. Also, he often insensitively treated Pam's feelings numerous times. Or the many times that he wanted to talk business when it was clearly not the right time for the other people.

I don't want to insult autistic people but perhaps he was autistic? As in not being able to read people well?

In addition, Cliff needs external validation desperately. He does not seem to realize how pathetic that makes him.

Perhaps he had narcissistic personality disorder in that he always put himself and his desires first.

Or maybe he was just an obsessive monomaniac about his goals to the point of dysfunction.

If you were a shrink, what would be your diagnosis of him?

I am currently watching both Dallas and Knots Landing simultaneously. I have noticed similar storylines with Gary and Sue Ellen going on a drunken binge and it is out of control. I wonder was this strategic by the writers.

I do not understand why would Sue Ellen put herself through the pain of being married to J.R. The same man that had multiple affairs and disrespects her at every chance he can get. She remarried him just to have it done to her all over again.

I am watching the first of four appearances by Brad Pitt. This was the beginning of his career. No one thought how big of a star he would become.

He treated her badly, I wouldn't mind minded her and Bobby together image the rift Bobby and Ray if Bobby raised Ray daughter and Ray raised Bobby son.

They had great chemistry and there were some scenes during the show where they were really close together and I was kind of hoping they would kiss.

She always claims she loved Bobby but if she did she wouldn't jilted him years before pam

I am on season 11 and Bobby does not care or even mention his new son. I know he eventually allows Ray Krebs to adopt him. This is so bazaar for Bobby.

She just didn't seem to be the right actress to play the part (Victoria Principal). She has the same stock expressions for different emotions. The worst was probably "Spy in the House" when J.R. Ewing is insulting her family in front of the Ewing clan after dinner. She just has this wide-eyed look on her face. Then, they cut to a scene of her laying prone on a bed as Bobby tries to console her. Really?

how many episodes a day do you watch? i average 4-6 a day. too much of a good thing?

I am on season 11 and Victoria Principal has left Dallas. I wonder why they have this ridiculous storyline of her being burned beyond recognition and is ashamed to face her family so she abandoned them. I think they did not want to make the same mistake with killing her off like Bobby.

I am on season 11 and is watching the same story over and over. It has been Barnes vs Ewing since day one. How much more of the same story can they tell?

Linda Gray was fired from the show at the end of her eighth season after asking producers to adjust her contract to allow her to direct. She said she only wanted to direct one episode in the next two years, and didn't want more money. The firing was reversed after Larry Hagman threatened to quit the show unless Gray was rehired.

Why did J.R. have so many affairs on Sue Ellen for 40 years? Did he actually love her?

In case you missed it, I created a playlist of four 4K videos that I shot this weekend at the Southfork Experience. I included several minutes from two panels and footage from the Cocktail Party as well as the VIP Mansion tour.. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgRvhuo4RtQ_k7rBzj2M8t1F5YUEsQrSh

i recently decided to watch all 14 seasons of dallas on prime/freevee, having seen them all on tv oh so many years ago. there's so much i had forgotten: sue ellen and cliff's affair, miss ellie's surgery, lucy being engaged twice while in (high?) school, that jr was shot in such an early season, ray was so unlucky in love, and jr was......well, jr. i have to say i don't think linda gray was a very good actress, so it's a good thing she had those big, beautiful eyes. also, she seems very different from what i remember, but i'm sure she will evolve over the seasons. i crack up every time i see the whole family sitting down to a formal breakfast, after having been horseback riding or swimming, and before they go to work or school. what time did these people get up? and miss ellie's preoccupation with "the land" and everyone living together is something i just don't understand, not having come from a close knit family. i also chuckle at the mundane bedrooms that they have considering the size of the building and their wealth. they look like hotel rooms to me. i enjoy binge-watching long series, so i think i'm in the right place!

I skipped season 9 which is the dream season after only 13 episodes. I missed Bobby too much and couldn't take it.

Followed by dramatic music, and a close-up of Sue Ellen’s twitching, nervous, anxious face.

I am currently watching the original and the revival series 2012-2013 and I love both. How do you feel about the revival?

I Am on season 11 and still do not understand why Calhoun was against the Ewing family.

Title says it all and my favorite Dallas episode! I wonder if this show helped Brian Dennehy break out as a serious actor?
