Dallas (2012) Premiered on TNT on June 13, 2012
The one and only Dallas is back with more delicious drama. JR, Bobby and Sue Ellen Ewing return to the ranch with secrets, schemes and betrayals. This time, they're joined by the next generation of Ewings, who take ambition and deception to a wicked new level. The battle for power, love and Southfork erupts in the new Dallas on TNT next summer.
The new Dallas stars Josh Henderson, Jesse Metcalfe, Jordana Brewster, Julie Gonzalo and Brenda Strong, and they will be joined by iconic stars Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray and Larry Hagman as J.R. Ewing.
The explosive rivalry between brothers J.R. Ewing and Bobby Ewing (Duffy) now lives on through another generation, with the future of the family fortune in the hands of the Ewing offspring: cousins John Ross Ewing (Henderson), the son of J.R. and ex-wife Sue Ellen (Gray), and Christopher Ewing (Metcalfe), the adopted son of Bobby.

Well i was too young when Dallas was on air so i decided to see what the new version is like. Post 6 above was A very useful video explain background of the old Dallas which meant you could follow what happen in the first episode without actually watch old version.
Well i have to say this was off to a good start with all the twist and turn and it does look like rivalry is still there but finding out who was in red sport car was a surprise but seriously end it in the Dallas cowboys football ground just was a bit over the top for me.
Off to watch next episode thought i do a quick comment before i forgot what happened in this episode.

Wow what another great episode JR is one smart man and finding out his son tried to con him should be intresting. So i had feeling that girl marrying Christopher has a secret but he's has no idea. I have feeling it's going come out by the end. Who sent that e-mail? Author: arksongbird80 Time: 6-14-2012 05:24 Subject: Reply 8#8 bala's post
Okay so I didn't get the recap version up above so when I watched the first hour I was "REALLY" confused". It felt like I was coming in the middle of a season and all they were doing was fighting and starting at each other. I thought those two cousins were suddenly going to say, mine is.... hahaha nevermind!
I was unimpressed. Kinda dumb. Oh well....another episode so we'll see. Author: bala Time: 6-14-2012 06:41 Subject: Reply 10#10 arksongbird80's post
I know how you feel i felt the samething but look at the other perspective the kids who are now adult don't know the history so we are in the same boat as the two cousins. You need to think of it like new chapter in the book where you skiped all boring parts and getting to good parts. I like it because you have to figure what's going on which makes you have to concentrate on what your watching which keeps you interested in the show.
What didn't you understand about the show i will explain it to you. Author: codebreaker Time: 6-14-2012 06:53 Subject: Reply 11#11 bala's post

Starting the show with them striking oil was to be expected but Bobby dying of cancer is a little bizarre as he died the first time around and it's nice to see the few original cast are being played be the original actors, JR junior fighting Bobby over the oil business is like old times Author: codebreaker Time: 6-30-2012 01:15 Subject: 1x02 Hedging Your Bets
I think Elena kissing John Ross at the car has blown their double-cross but he is a chip of the old block Author: codebreaker Time: 6-30-2012 08:33 Subject: 1x03 The Price You Pay
I was wondering if a Barnes would appear so seeing Cliff was a pleasant surprise as another original cast member and with everyone out to screw the Ewing it will be interesting who gets them first, Chris telling Rebecca about Elena was a surprise but the right thing to do Author: codebreaker Time: 6-30-2012 09:27 Subject: 1x04 The Last Hurrah
Tough call saving the foal and not being able to save the horse and what did that guy expect trying to blackmail the Ewing but looking forward to see what Chris does after Rebecca told him about the email Author: bala Time: 6-30-2012 09:29 Subject: Reply 21#21 codebreaker's post
Yeah i hate the fact it cut off like that i really do hope they will address that in next episode rather than skip over it? Author: codebreaker Time: 7-9-2012 12:15 Subject: 1x05 Truth and Consequences
Christopher trying to use the video against John Ross to turn on his father should be interesting Author: bala Time: 7-9-2012 22:40 Subject: Reply 23#23 codebreaker's post
I was surprised that he didn't take video straight to his father instead of john ross that would invalidate the sale ? Author: codebreaker Time: 7-11-2012 20:48
Well i had feeling she was pregant that certainly put her back on the show but the question will she tell christopher about it ? Author: codebreaker Time: 7-13-2012 10:22 Subject: 1x06 The Enemy of My Enemy
Rebecca approaching Bobby and Christopher with the information that she thinks could help them stop John Ross from drilling for oil was nice but you just knew it wouldn't be easy, the smile on Tommy face when Rebecca told him she was pregnant means he now has another angle to get back at them Author: codebreaker Time: 7-18-2012 20:38
Well i have say we knew he had christopher but going to her to pass the message to him was the only way but Twins were a surprise and just when you think this show can't have any-more twist John Ross is now a person of interest in her death.

Were is Bobby & Pamela's name on the old tree, I've seen Bobby & Ann, Jock & Ellie and Chris & Elena and as Pamela was Chris's adopted mother and Marta del Sol scratching John Ross might make him the #1 suspect but who has the video evidence of her murder Author: codebreaker Time: 7-25-2012 22:28

I thought Tommy was going to hit Rebecca after scratching his face but I can see him hitting her and causing her to loose the babies but the shots going off was a great cliffhanger Author: codebreaker Time: 8-12-2012 15:26 Subject: 1x10 Revelations
I was wondering who the hell did Rebecca call to get rid of the body and has she used them before but her being a Barnes makes sense and about time they mentioned Pamela as she was a key figure in the original show Author: codebreaker Time: 12-15-2012 12:18
Well nice returning start to fantastic season 2 so much to discuss i don't know where to start . Rebecca A.KA Pamela revealing who she was was shock to them. If that not bad enough turning his star witness against him was calculated. Author: bala Time: 1-29-2013 09:08 Subject: Venomous Creatures
So things are getting very messy and complicated new alliance being formed but i had missing daughter was actually kidnap by her father it was the only thing that made sense but look like they either poisoned her mind against her or the fact she was terrible mother i think latter based on what she said to him.
Rebecca and John Ross hooking up was just plain wrong Author: codebreaker Time: 1-29-2013 09:47 Subject: Reply 47#47 bala's post
John Ross sleeping with the daughter to try and blackmail her father was a low blow and Rebecca's real name being Pamela Rebecca Barnes makes sense as the Barnes were a big part of the original show Author: bala Time: 1-29-2013 09:52 Subject: Reply 49#49 codebreaker's post
Yes it really look like Ross is willing anything to get one over Christopher but i am curious what they will Handle JR exit since he passed away during second season. .

Well that's a good question and what an idiot checking to see if she was wearing a wire when he should checked whether she was carrying a gun and i was right i told you the daughter thought her mother wasn't sober Author: codebreaker Time: 2-5-2013 12:34 Subject: Reply 58#58 bala's post

True it wasn't going to work but was shooting him the best thing to do she's going to go to jail for murder ? Author: codebreaker Time: 2-11-2013 22:47
Bobby covering for Ann was nice but a little predictable but Ryland saying it was also Bobby will make thing interesting and Cliff was bound to stop Frank from working with J.R. to undermine Pamela Author: codebreaker Time: 2-19-2013 00:56

For a second I thought they were going to show his body in the body-bag and Cliff shouting his mouth of at the wake was bad timing but the brothers getting into a fight was amusing, looking forward to finding out who shot JR and the package from him was great Author: bala Time: 3-19-2013 10:41 Subject: Dallas 2x10 Promo "Guilt & Innocence" (HD)
The outcome of the Will reading was interesting especially with Miss Ellie's contribution and with another couple of the original Dallas and the spin-off Knots Landing cast was great but the way Christopher finding it so easy to blackmail was a surprise and can you believe Cliff would sacrifice his daughter to bring down the Ewing's

Ryland making a move against Drew to so call protect Emma was diabolical and how can she ever trust him again but faking the official report on the rig accident was predictable Author: codebreaker Time: 4-10-2013 10:20 Subject: 2x12 A Call to Arms
Emma going off the rails like that was a surprise I thought she would try and get back at her father not just lay down and take it but with Cliff's slip of the tongue and Pamela realising he's responsible it's going to get interesting to see who they try to take down first Author: codebreaker Time: 4-10-2013 11:07 Subject: 2x13 Love & Family
Ann refusing to post bail for Emma was a great was to give her a wakeup call and John Ross marrying Pamela to get control of her share was a brilliant move especially if Christopher finds his mother between them they would be majority share holders Author: bala Time: 4-16-2013 08:16 Subject: Guilt By Association
