Their hotel room confrontation is one of the greatest scenes in Dallas. Dialogue, direction, pacing, acting, cinematography, score, tension - everything is just perfect.
Mr. Hagman appeared eerily frightening in that hotel confrontation scene, which causes my arm hairs to stand erect😨😳 I find this particular scene of Dallas, just plain eerie. J.R. Ewing sho nuff permeated a room with some horrible vibes 😨😒😰
Larry Hagman played a wonderful villain. He was the core of Dallas, that's why after he died, the reboot went south. R.I.P, Mr. Hagman. Yo were a legend.
msmithstud Pam was right he did NOT like her at all..XD Could you tell me if the show at a tie in with the Sheratan hotel chain..?? I noticed at the end of the 1986-87 premiere episode it promotional consideration as a sponcer and many of its chartors were in hotel rooms or suites ..??
MrCraigblaze i never acknowledged that about the Sheraton..I know at the end of the end credits there's a mention of Doubletree Hotel. Apparently, that's where the cast stayed while filming in Texas
+msmithstud The the one of the two favorite scenes on this show between these two..The other one is in the hayloft in the 1978 when Pam falls from 1978..XD
JR should not have forgotten one thing about Pam: she always does the opposite of what he says or threatens. JR had only able to get to her through other people her unknowingly.
Victoria Principal is quite possibly the best looking woman who ever lived. As an actress should could more than hold her own with anyone including Larry Hagman. A hugely wealthy woman too. She is hugely talented both on and off screen. As for Larry words fail me. Has there ever been a better performance from any actor in the history of television ? He was and still is simply the best.
"Now climb down off your soapbox honey" LMAO "No, you started this my sanctimonious little sister-in-law." Awesome. JR Ewing/Larry Hagman were the best.
Nah Pam was tough and took no bs from JR but never an antagonist. They had a few female villains over the years like Kristin Shepherd, Katherine Wentworth and Angelica Nero but Pam was not one of them.
He was primarily talking about Cliff as Bobby has never/ever been afraid or hesitant to go up against Jr....In the reboot, Sue-ellen used the perfect analogy to sum BOBBY up...."A Steel hand in a velvet glove". Bobby more took after his mama with a kind/gentle nature, of high moral fiber...but not weak or a punk......Ellie, was very kind n easy going, but I loved to see her when she loses her cool...."Ray, get me the shot gun our of the hall closet"..
@Renee, No she never. JR dose not frighten her. She said she is NOT afraid of him. Pam Ewings not like these modern day feminist who want special treatment. Pam had strength of character. 😏
The cinematography in Season 7 was so amazing compared to previous seasons. Just look at the comparison between the two scenes. I love jR circling Pam like a predator
Pamela was actually JR's formidable adversary, her brother was more like a bumbling fool. Its a shame the writers didnt exploit dynamic so much more. I'm sure Victoria Principal would have stayed much longer with Dallas. Thankfully we can relive the great scenes of these two here on YT.
Because it isn't like JR actually works....he's gotta stick his nose into other people's lives an old lady..... Boredom is a terrible thing - especially when you got too much time on your hands and got a rotten mind!
He crushed everything and everybody, to get what he wants. He only cared for him self. How ever he lost it all on his own in the end, interesting turn of events.
This was acting at its finest, two heavyweights in Larry Hagman and Victoria Principal going toe to toe on Friday nights on CBS. People don't understand how huge this show was back in its heyday. People literally planned out their weeks and Friday nights around Dallas, it was a weekly event like NFL television. I also believe between Pam and JR that JR actually secretly liked and respected Pam because she was the only woman to stand up to him. I felt some heavy vibes of love too, they were both at such odds that they never explored that possibility. You can tell with how steamy it was between them that they went the extra mile. I believe JR did the things he did to get extra attention from Pam. He knew he couldn't have Pam because of his brother, so he picked on her at every turn. It's like how young boys and girls do at school they bully and pick on kids they have a crush on. I always felt like that here. Does anybody else believe the same, or am I crazy? LOL!
one of my all time favorite scenes....JR at his all time best....larry hagman was born to play this role..."well,try this one on for size"...if u shld return to bobby...all is gonna break loose...an under rated actor...always knew how to deliver a line.....sadly dallas stayed around wy too long n by the last season....had become a snooze fest n the season finale was a total let down....they waited 30yrs before approaching victoria to reprise her role of pam to rap up bobby n pam in the reboot....victoria who is rich as shit now.....was smart to decline the offer....the invite should have been offered in the last season and started 5-6 episodes before the finale and climaxed with a reunion.....they shld have alson xtended an invite to barbara bel geddies.....and created a finale of them all seated at their famous 7pm dinner with lucy & Jr throw ing shade at each other and jr. riding high on the hog because he finally became chairmen of west star oil.....
Loved Dallas. This scene iv just beyond! Hagman was a super star, the devil that he played. There were times I wanted badly for him to get his punishment. He corrupted that decent man , the government worker who kept bids safe. Horrible to see that man buckle under J.R' cruel blackmail.
Allyn Shaving When Dallas was conceived it was reported that the show was suppose to revolve around the character of Pam. Then JR became this huge iconic character that people loved to hate and the show switched to revolving around JR.
Anyone still believe that it was JR who forced Pam out for good with the accident ??? I think her character is somewhere ,with Mark Graison and she is blackmailed to stay with him or Christopher .....Oh , that's right , they killed Christopher in the third Season of TNT Dallas .
I always loved to hate J.R.! I have to say though that for all of his animosity towards Pam, he never raised a hand to her in retaliation for her slapping him, at least as far as I can recall. I do remember he slapped Sue Ellen once when she insinuated that the baby she was carrying might not be his and how shocking that was back then. If he had slapped Pam back... Well, I think that would've started something with Bobby and Cliff that even his ruthlessness couldn't outdo.
+DarlingNikki2, I remember that too, but he NEVER did slap Pam back because Pam could slap, that's for sure. Like in the first scene when Pam slapped him, he never tried to slap him back, and everything. I do remember what happened when JR slapped Sue Ellen too when she said her child must not be his.
JR never used violence against Pam but instead he delivered some of the best put downs which did alot more damage. Example She's cracking up, and who could blame her. She finds out her daddy Digger Barnes is no relation at all and her real daddy is a saddle tramp and a thief and her mothers a whore.. Who could hate that little girl. Or What do you expect from the illegitimate daughter of a ranch-foreman and the step daughter of the town drunk.
Without JR, what would we be watching on Dallas? Nuffin. Especially after Jock died. Boring characters like Pam just had everybody counting the seconds until that ol' rattlesnake would pop up on the screen again. JR was the greatest.
Larry hagman was the only true Texan among the whole cast which was why he played Jr on the show as well as he did he knew the character and Texas very well because that was his homeland, Victoria principal was down right gorgeous in those days and she still looks damned good today for her age
Duo de deux fortes personnalités et de deux adversaires représentent le bien Pamela et le mal jr mes deux préfères, beaucoup de classe inégales pour les deux les autres acteurs de la série ne les ont pas surpasses à part sueellen et c est tout, le reste bof bof
IS IT ME BUT THERE IS AN INCREDIBLE RESEMBLANCE TO VICTORIA PRINCIPAL & JENNIFER LOPEZ IF THEY EVER DID A DALLAS MOVIE JLO WOULD BE PERFECT TO PLAY PAM
Some film producers were talking about making a Dallas film based on the series around 2006 thru 2009 with John Travolta as JR Ewing and Jennifer Lopez as Sue Ellen Ewing and Luke Wison as Bobby Ewing And Brad Pitt as Ray Krebbs and Katie Cassidy as Lucy Ewing. Also they were gonna rewrite Lucy as JR and Sue Ellen's Daughter instead of Gary's. The casting sounded great but to me they would have ruined it by making Lucy Ewing JR's daughter instead of his niece. Also Shirley Maclaine was being considered for the role of Miss Ellie
@@koolkev2020able oh its true bud, you can google it and look it up. The information is still there to be seen it's kind of a discarded project. And I agree thank god they didn't it would have been a disaster
