Bring Back Dallas!.......2007-12-03
I was born several years after Dallas began so, naturally, I was a bit young to watch it the first time around. I started watching it earlier this year on UK television and when they stopped playing it after season 4, I had just HAD to keep watching.
This season has it all; JR's shady dealings, Bobby and Pam's personal stuggles, Lucy's newest romance and of course, the centrepiece of the season, the desperate battle for Ewing Oil.
Great drama, great moments, whether you're re-watching or watching for the first time, with a season like this, it's hard to see why Dallas ever went off the air!
War of the Ewings.......2007-08-11
The year-long war between JR and Bobby to see who can produce the biggest profits to win Ewing Oil is fantastic drama and an ingenius and brilliant story-line in this series 6 DVD.
Larry Hagman is perfect in his portrayal as the evil brother JR and is really the best TV villian ever! In this series 6 DVD, JR has just about everyone in Dallas against him, including his own mother who he fights in court over the terms of Jock's will.
Almost every scene in every episode is related to the Ewing brothers' war which affects everyone else. The plots and story-lines are all interwoven and have a domino effect from the first episode all the way to the 'Southfork fire' end-of-season cliffhanger (one of the series' best).
I'm really looking forward to the Dallas series 7 & 8 DVDs as "Dallas" just gets better and better! There's so much more great drama and fantastic story-lines to come in forthcoming seasons.
I hope Warner releases all the 14 seasons onto DVD as I even like the final few seasons of the series.
J.R. vs Bobby: When Two Tribes Go To War.......2007-07-16
Season 6 of Dallas shows how much the budget on the show increased as it grew in stature: no more wobbly walls, and Ewing Oil actually has some decent offices. The whole series centres around the fight for Ewing Oil between J.R. and Bobby, a fight set up in a codicil to Jock's will. J.R. and Swellin get married (again) but J.R. is soon back chasing ladies, and Swellin's back on the double voddies (no change there then). Pam takes a fancy to Mark, who let's face it, is not a patch on the gorgeous Bob. The lovely Clayton Farlow romances Miss Ellie, but secretly desires Swellin. And Ray and Donna, now worth $20 million, still live in a house not big enough to swing a Texan critter. As for poor old Lucy, her life is just one long sob story, romance wise. This is vintage Dallas ai its best, and now that Cliff is on the up, the scene is set for Series 7 to be a Barnes-Ewing showdown at the ho-down. Bring it on.
What a great buy !.......2007-07-09
It was brilliant ! I really missed Jim Davis as Jock - but Howard Keel was a fine actor and played his part very well . This season ended on a superb cliff hanger as one would expect with Dallas . Watching Miss Elie come to terms with Jock's death was very moving while Bobby blackmailing one of JR's goons was bizzare - how power corrupts ! It is so unlucky that Miss Lucy still has no luck finding love . Ken Kerchaval just gets better as Cliff Barnes - but Pam's problems over child bearing are dealt with very well . It is a real problem that was done with sensitivity . I hope that we can soon pre-order Dallas Season Seven on Amazon - roll on September 17th !
