Larry Hagman and Josh Henderson are father and son in the new Dallas.
Nobody can play JR like Larry Hagman. The ultimate in evil.
I don’t usually like remakes or sequels, but this could be fun to watch. I admit I watched the original faithfully. A guilty pleasure.
I thought wrong.
Yes, I will be watching, as well. Huge fan, back in the day. As was mentioned, above, it should be fun to watch. Hope so.
I await the remake of Gilligan’s Island, but funny this time. Maybe cast “Pee-Wee Herman” as Gilligan, Michael Moore as the Skipper, Lindsey Lohan as Mary Ann, Paris Hilton as Ginger, John Larouquette as Thurston Howell III, Richard Belzer as the professor, etc...
Didn’t really watch it much back in the day (on and off), but am definitely watching tonight. Gotta give them credit for getting all the originals back.
Every series has a character that comes out as gay, who will it be on Dallas, JR or Bobby?
Or perhaps some flashback scenes of Jock Ewing as a drag queen.
It was all just a bad dream.
Hagman is indeed pretty talented. I even thought his earlier comedic chops in “Jeannie” were pretty sublime. But I did read a really long interview of him, where he recounted his experiments with LSD and mind-altering drugs, and I have to say he came across as one of the most bratty and embarrasingly self-absorbed people I could possibly imagine.
I don’t think they should get public subsidies for sure.
Too bad they threw the producer or writer off. I don’t like the green aspect of it either.
Oh cripes. What's next, will we find out Cliff & JR had a Brokeback Mountain thang goin' on??
Growing up, Dallas was a "banned" show for my sister & me. Yet somehow we managed to catch enough of it to keep up (dad travelled a lot). Despite itself, it all seems so innocuous, nowadays.
Bah!
I never watched the original, I will certainly not waste time on a remake.
Oh, and it’s cable?
Non-starter right there, until cable goes commercial-free.
“Bobbys adopted son Christopher (Jesse Metcalfe) envisions a future where clean energy will replace fossil fuel and make the world a better place.”
Ugh. Leave Dallas in the pre-PC 1970s and 1980s where it belongs.
I watched an extended preview online. It looks good.
I don’t think I ever missed an episode during the original run.
I do recall the first season. The 3 broadcast networks, for some reason, moved weekly series around that year. A show might be on Tuesday one week, Friday the next, then Monday, etc. It was havoc ‘chasing’ favorite programs. It was actually with the 2nd season that Dallas really became popular.
It used to be that I watched Dallas before I went out on Friday nights. It was a great show, particularly the early years.
It’s great that Hagman is still able to do his cameo appearance as I recall his health was bad in years back.
Hollyweird has almost completely run out of ideas and can only do rehash.
I dream of Jeanie.
