Personally I expected JR's funeral to pack an emotional punch with me since I grew with Dallas but it didn't have that "touch the heartstrings moment" I expected. This was probably due in part to Dallas TNT lacking soul. For starters. Why didn't the producers choose Southfork for the funeral scene? As JR was laid to rest so much could have resonated with the viewer if only we witnessed Southfork in the background. Instead we get some lame bush setting which could have been anywhere.
On As The World Turns, the evil, evil, evil David Stenbeck ended up dead and...well....turnout for the funeral was sparse. Still, quality over quantity.
He was one of these villains who kept being presumed dead, then turning up to wreak more havoc, so the women he did wrong had to make sure he was really dead this time, right?
Unfortunately, the clip leaves out the best part!
Right after this clip ends, Julia Lindsey (the woman we last saw) decides to be totally sure he's dead and unloads a revolver full of bullets into the corpse lying in the casket! Thus begins Julia's very entertaining descent into madness.
Have never seen ATWT, but that clip is so entertaining! It reminded me of this moment from 80s Aussie soap Sons & Daughters. Not strictly a funeral scene, but a great spot of beyond-the-grave meddling....
