[QUOTE="Frankenstein Underworld, post: 178624, member: 35"] Mike Robin. He was one of the producers of the show. He either said it on one of those behind the scenes featurettes or an episode commentary. I think it's on a season 1 disc. There appeared to be a concerted effort to make the original seem superficial and inferior in comparison. I have no idea why, but it's funny in light of how TNT Dallas turned out. Jesse didn't seem to care what the original fans thought. He said he didn't want to say today's audience is more sophisticated, but he certainly thought they were more discerning. Sophisticated and discerning essentially mean the same thing. Brenda Strong wasn't any better. She said TNT Dallas was "exponentially more interesting and entertaining." I have no idea where they're sold online, but I'm pretty sure a bolo tie is the same as a string tie. Ray wore one on the TNT series, which was odd in light of Mike Robin's statement. [/QUOTE]
