Most hilarious lines on Dallas.

That was meant to be serious.

I will forever shake my head in amusement when Miss Ellie says,

"Why do men have to be so stubborn?"

Coming from her of all people that is funny as hell.

My favorite of all time is on the lead-up to the "who shot J.R." storyline.

Vaughn Leland is even slimier than usual. J.R. knows that if Vaughn gets in on the Asian oil field deal, then Vaughn will lose his money.

Vaughn: I've decided to invest a large amount of my personal money in this deal, J.R.
J.R: Vaughn, I can't think of anybody else I'd rather have come in on this deal.

BHAHAHAHA! That magnificent bastard!

Lucy to Ray when JR was messing with his country singer girlfriend: “JR’s gonna kill you.”

As we later found out, JR couldn’t fight his way out of a cotton factory. Lol
of course, for all his lack of physicality, JR did in fact prevail over grizzled manly cowboy Ray via a bop of the head with a phone as Southfork started to burn!

This never happened, but the look on JR's face would have been priceless:

(After Clayton and Miss Ellie marry)

Clayton says to JR: "Now that your mama and I have married, I'd appreciate it if you would call me "father."

Sue Ellen: Look JR. Isn't that the Valentine girl? She doesn't look nearly as trashy in person as she does in those pictures. Jack will you dance with me....

Jack: Excuse me Jamie.

JR: (As he looks at Jamie)...arrrm.

Jamie: No thanks

JR: What till your asked

I’m going to go with the maniacal van driver/robber/kidnapper Willie Gust, when surrounded by cops: “You freeze, turkeys!”

Sue Ellen to JR, not long after discovering she is pregnant: "After all, I've been just as faithful to our wedding vows as you have, darling!"

I love this thread because it reminds me that Dallas was really very funny, maybe much more so then all the other dramas before and after. Certainly more funny than anything we see in drama today, taking ourselves way to serious.

I love:

Sue Ellen - I'd rather sleep with a carnival geek than sleep with JR (she's lying of course) ;)

JR - Why don't you have that new plastic husband surgeon of yours design you a new face? One without a mouth.

Cliff - What are we talking about here? Two dead fish and a pelican.

JR sees Katherine outside his office because she's waiting for him.

JR: Well, Katherine. When did you start hanging out on street corners?

Another time he's having dinner with Katherine.
Katherine: I know why I want to see Pam and Bobby break up, but what's your reason?
JR: I have a special feeling toward your sister. I hate her.

Larry Hagman knew how to do deliver a line, that's for sure.
