[QUOTE="Ome, post: 89933, member: 2"] There's also another factor in all this. When original Dallas aired, we didn't have much choice in what programmes we were watching compared to what's available today. If a show doesn't grab you straight away, or you are quickly finding fault, you will simply turn away and look for something. Plus, back then Dallas was groundbreaking in many ways and people were always discussing what was happening. That's never going to happen today and that will reflect on peoples opinions to how a show is perceived. Two big shows out today are GAME OF THRONES & THE WALKING DEAD, but not everyone is talking about them the way people talked about shows before the Internet. They're expressing their views via Twitter, IMDb and specialised forums dedicated to those shows. We were with friends last night and we must have covered about 8 shows we're currently watching, when I asked them about New Dynasty, they had no idea of its existence. The world of TV is so different today, that's it's not always fair to compare. And let's not forget that original Dallas had many, [I]many[/I] flaws with it, from continuation to acting, to incredibly stupid stories, most things that were not as visible to the viewer back then.
