[QUOTE="Barbara Fan, post: 251123, member: 21"] I had one outstanding question that I never answered as i wanted to think about it and also didnt want to post during another TT person week in the spotlight so [USER=33]@Angela Channing[/USER] - after much thought- the answer is I dont really want a modern day Dallas for either TV or screen - they got the casting spot on 1st time round with all the core cast that you cant beat it and i dont want a second rate actor in the role of legendary JR, Sue Ellen, Pam, Bobby, Miss Ellie et al For me Dallas is an 80s show - of its time - and thats where it belongs. If it had to be anyone Cate Blanchett looking older in about 10 years time Crap Cidre soured my view and taste for any new Dallas and I also found someone i loved ++ a bit annoying 2nd time round - so i dont want tainted memories anymore You can call a show Dallas and have a few around from the original series but if it has no heart and soul then its not Dallas and Larry hagman was the main reason to watch it. it left me cold and it affected my love for original Dallas and some of the cast. When Larry died - it was time to end it there and then. The original cast and it was an ensemble cast made Dallas the success it was, without them, its not Dallas - I dont want a remake, reboot or continuation in any shape or form. and [USER=18]@Karin Schill[/USER] = you are right, I found my 1983 diary, it was MGM back lot!! :hugs: [/QUOTE]
