I remember when this aired in 1996. We were expecting a major blizzard that day and after work I went to Walmart and stocked up on things, came home and ordered Dominoes and set all three vcr’s to record it. I was so excited!!! The storm started shortly after the movie started and we got close to 19 inches of snow. It was a fun movie!
Yea I remember the blizzard of '96. We got like 38 inches over 3 days. But you seriously ordered Dominos? 😂🤣 Your culinary standards aren't all that high, are they? Cooking a frozen Freschetta in the oven would be 100 times tastier!
JR was my favorite tv character of all time! For as evil as he played JE Ewing he was a great man in real life and it just showed what a great actor he was!
J.R. coming back in true J.R. fashion. When you watch these scenes it's amazing to think the preparation that goes into it. With wardrobe, makeup, camera angles, etc. The scenes shot on location at the ranch were always the best. Pretty funny the look on their faces when J.R. shows up. I always liked this show so much, particularly Larry Hagman and how he portrayed J.R. In a way you wanted to watch the show because you wanted to see what devious plan he was going to do next. In another way, it would be neat to be him and act those scenes out too 😁. Dallas still one of the best tv shows ever. 1978-1991.
To some of the younger folks out there, I was a young kid in Southern Africa when this was on TV. We kids had a song that we sang to the tune of Dallas' theme: He's mean, he's rich... He calls his wife a bitch. He drives a bright yellow car... He lives in a palace On the outskirts of Dallas And he calls himself JR. That show was a cultural icon at the time, and JR the main man. RIP, Mr Hagman, you legend!
I remember this. It seems like yesterday. I really cried when he died in they brought back Dallas and he died in the 2nd season. He was a wonderful actor.
This marks the end of Sly's business & personal relationship with JR. after 15 years working together. I guess even Sly has her limits to JR's conniving schemes.
I miss this show so much, they need to bring it back before we lose anymore Dallas actors from the original series. I will say Sue Ellen looked amazing & loved her short hair.
When this show was on the air, back in 5th grade, I was mad @ J.R. Ewing every week on the week. 🤠😠 The meaner and tougher he got the madder @ him I got! 🌆🏦💼🗂️🥃🏢🛌🏻🏰💵🛢️💴🛋️📰📺🤠⛽🐍🤔❓🤨⛰️😳⌚
Good because like the last few series of the original JR was still a buffoon in these. At least TNT set JR back to the early 80s version with great lines and proper menace again. The Afton /Sanitarium plot is just a terrible borrowing of the original plot and shows a lack of ideas.
I would have to think that the biggest reason for that would be demographics. They were trying to get a wide range of viewers for the new version (beyond just former Dallas viewers) and let's just say Josh and Jesse look a lot better with their shirts off than Omri and the past Christophers did in 2012.
Also, Omri, and all the Christophers, have retired from acting and moved into other things as adults. Since John Ross and Christopher were the stars of that version, they definitely needed polished professionals to play the leads.
Dallas, J.R. Ewing, brilliant!!!! There are few characters, and few shows, that could produce as many shocks, twists and turns, and with such entertainment, and delight, as this absolutely fantastic show!!!! Absolute delightful nonsense, wonderful. 😊
When Sue Ellen ask cliff how he is doing? He goes actually pretty good! Well hell I wonder why could it be because he actually thinks his arch rival is dead! Lol! But when he sees JR get off the back of the pig truck! He ain't pretty good then! The look on his face on his face is priceless! He looks like he's about ready to have a heart attack or a stroke! Lol! Every time I watch that scene I laughed my ass off!
Shame they decided to totally forget these 2 specials when they rebooted the series. It had more continuity than the updated version. I mean when JR died (for real, RIP Larry Hagman) in the reboot, where was Sly at the funeral?
Dallas de beste serie ooit gemaakt denk er met veel plezier aan terug met name JR fantastisch gespeeld door L Hagman en Cliff Barnes hoe die 2 elkaar,'s bloed konden drinken ik mis de serie elke dag
I'm so sorry but I D OK N'T REMEMBER ANY IF THESE SCENES. Which generation of Dallas is this? What years? Not the original series nor the reboot in 2011 on. So help me, what years was this filmed an shown?
I don't think it ever gained a strong enough audience outside of the "old" Dallas fans and once Larry (and consequently JR) died, they no longer were interested in it. I would've liked to have seen it go on. They could've done more with the series.
I am in disbelief any of them had a thing to do with him after this. Faking his death for his own gain and putting them through that must be the cruelest thing he ever pulled.
Like the dream season this is not cannon and never happens Dallas 20012 to 2014 is cannon...and ignored this . Tho originally they were going to agnoleadge it. The main reason this movies are ignored is they brought in a diffrent rebecca barnes, cliffs daughter , in Dallas 2012 to 2014
@@nickcritelli6619 no my friend. They made 2 Dallas movies in the mid 90s a few years after the original dallas series got cancelled jr returns and war of the ewings . This scene was part of jr returns movie. However the dallas 3 series from 2012 to 2014 ignores theses movies so they are not cannon .
@@DALLAS70 Yeah, I feel as though the people behind the Dallas reboot have no right to say THEIR version is canon and the Dallas movies from the 90s aren't canon.
I’m more partial to the 90’s TV movies than the TNT series. My answer probably would have been different if the TNT series ended after season two, but season three… 😬
War of the Ewings was solid I wouldn’t put it above J.R returns but it was still pretty good so you mean to tell me after all these years sly a.k.a. Cynthia from Lionheart decided to grow a conscience?? Bitch please! 😂🙄😂🙄
Linda Gray with her butch hair cut, no pam, no other legacy characters, drippy actors to play the younger Ewing's...etc.. as bad as the reboot was I see why they chose to not acknowledge this and The War Of The Ewing's in their continuity. Garbage
the original cast of dallas back in the seventies are way better inmy opinion than the second generation... i brought my copy on amazon of all the original to watch in my spare time... i love the youth look of all the actors and actresses... and i think they were number one soap.... the only thing i cant stand from the writer is to have jenna hook up with ray.. NO NO chemistry there and i prefer for bobby to be reunited with jenna since they have the baby and have pam died... Pam is too mean and jenna is soft and bobby loves to have a child of his own... if jenna came out clean and told bobby about the baby bobby could cancel the wedding and remarry Jenna since jenna still loves him dearly... Ray is way too boring character and donna and ray are a good couple...Mrs pham.
Yikes while that hair style wasn't awful it just looked awful on Linda! Lol Possibly the worst one/look she had over the yrs (blonde... whether long or short). Looked soo much better as a brunette w/ medium long (above shoulders). This one makes her look 70 when she's only 56! Lol
