Dallas To Get Remastered In HD

[Snarky Oracle!]

Absolutely beautiful although I'm just a little bit miffed that there isn't a picture of Jim Davis as Jock.

I am so looking forward to the blu-rays.

Isn't that Jock?

If you're on about the last picture with JR, that's Vaughn Leland (Dennis Patrick) in the background.

Yeah, that's Vaughn. In the background. What about it?

I thought you'd mistaken him for Jock.

There isn't a picture of Jock in that last post from Garry.

That's why I was a bit miffed.

I mean Jim Davis as Jock not the Steve Forrest version.

I'd ask you not to drink and post at the same time, but then I'd have to put down my bourbon.

I'm not going to respond to you anymore, because I don't want to assist you in your goal any further of derailing the thread.

If they are planning extras let's hope and pray that they attempt to do as much as possible with the original surviving cast, plus it would be wonderful to have "The secretary tales" from Sly, Phylis, Kendal & Jackie and as many other cast members as possible such as Priscilla etc.

This is probably the last opportunity to do this for DALLAS, let's hope they don't f**k it up.

Jackie is dead. Leonard Katzmans daughter. Died in 1996.

Where did these screen grabs come from? They look like thumbnails from a streaming site. What streaming site (HBO Max, Amazon Prime?) or were they leaked by people remastering it to a fanpage or something? If someone discovered these thumbnails on the back end then they must be launching it soon (someone upthread said the first 6 seasons?)

So she passed on the same year he did?

A smiling JR in HD? Life could not possibly get any better.

So, 8 pages in, let's unpack this a bit....can anyone confirm the following...

1. Only the first 6 seasons (including original mini series) have been converted to HD?
2- If so, is work ongoing on further seasons?
3 - It is being upgraded in widescreen and it's original ratio? (this has now been confirmed as far as I know).
4 - Is there any sign that it will be commercially available to buy or this for streaming channels only?
5 - If it will be available to buy has there been any whispering on extra content?

All seasons have been remastered. They will all be available over the coming months.
The show will be available in its original 4:3 aspect ratio.
There are plans for a blu ray release but no dates confirmed yet.
Don't get your hopes up on extra content. It's a miracle we are getting this show in HD.

I'd be content if Warner Bros makes this available via their online store. This way I know it's coming from a reputable business. Or if they make it available via Amazon. I doubt very much if other retail stores will stock it or it will only be available as a special order.

I wonder if they will seek out the services of Patrick, Linda or heaven forbid ask Victoria Principle to step out of retirement to promote it. Wishful thinking?

That would be fabulous if Patrick, Linda and maybe Victoria could help in a PR campaign to promote the new Dallas Blu-ray releases.

I remember seeing a post somewhere (maybe where, maybe somewhere else, I honestly can't remember) which said that WB are also working on HD-ing Knots Landing and Falcon Crest. I hope I didn't dream it. Are they planning a Supersoaps Spectacular of some kind?

Yes they are. All of the Lorimar produced soaps which Warners own - Dallas, Knots Landing and Falcon Crest are being remastered to High Definition for streaming & Blu-ray release purposes.

Warner's are hoping all of the shows find a new audience as well as attracting the fans of the shows who watched & loved them on their original transmission.

Three Cheers for Warner Bros.!

Hip Hip Hooray.

Hip Hip Hooray.

Hip Hip Hooray. :bl2:
