[QUOTE="Pamela_E, post: 265957, member: 315"] That's why it would need to be a reboot. The problem Cidre had with NuDallas was working with the ashes of the old series and trying to make sense of the dynamics. Original Dallas was simple. Three brothers, the nasty one, the goody two shoes and the 'weak' one. The father they had to live up to and the mother who kept it all together. Plus the outsider wives trying to fit into this world of money and power. Great and simple family connections. Dallas 2.0 didn't have that, instead two old brothers, their sons, an ex wife, cousins. It wasn't a great set of dynamics. So naturally it made sense to focus on the feud between the two cousins. For some reason Christopher rated badly with audience focus groups, so they decided to drop that idea and as a result the series kind of spiralled into a mess. The only way I can see this series returning is a reboot with the original premise. [/QUOTE]
