Dallas is a great television series with well written story lines and a very talented cast.This show will certainly not have the same legacy that the original Dallas (which this is a continuation of) will have,I think the stories played it way too safe and didn't have anything groundbreaking or unique like the original did with episodes such as Who Shot Jr.,it was a bit too formulaic and didn't want to take any risks.The cast that appeared in the original series are certainly the highlight,particularly Patrick Duffy and of course Larry Hagman,who is sadly only in 17 episodes as he passed away in late 2012,but he ended his career playing his most iconic role,JR. Ewing,and he will always be remembered for his outstanding dramatic acting,may he rest in peace.Some of the new cast are also very professional and seem very aware of the type of acting they needed to portray in order to play Ewings,Jesse Metcalfe,Jordana Brewster and Brenda Strong do a great job,but Josh Henderson stands out the most as he becomes the new JR and is as ruthless as his father ever was.Three seasons is plenty and the series didn't thrill me enough to want any more,but I was interested enough to watch till the end and I think maybe a movie to tie up loose ends and finish up Dallas in its entirety would be great.Its an easy to watch drama that is thrilling at times,I never watched the original series but I feel fans of it will likely enjoy and Dallas is worth a watch.
The next generation of the Ewing family begin to show the same greed and ruthlessness as their relatives as they fight for power and land.
Best Performance: Larry Hagman Worst Performance: Judith Light
