Extras You'd Like to See

[Ray_Krebbs]

Are there any extras you'd like to see on the Blu Ray boxset of the HD Dallas? This one is odd, but I'd love to see versions of the episodes, where VP does commentary on every Dallas episode after her departure. There'll be her sitting down with her in a corner of the screen as the episodes play. It'd be like Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

I'd love to see so many things as extras on the DVD's...

I'd love to hear the cast talk about their favourite storylines.

Susan Howard discussing her aborted plot from the dream season.

The cast in general talking about their feelings on the dream season/Bobby return

VP discussing her departure and how it was handled in the following season(s).

Commentary by all surviving cast members on the cliffhanger episodes.

The legacy of Dallas - a documentary discussing the show's rise to become the most watched TV show in the world, and how it changed prime time dramas forever.

Remembering - a documentary discussing cast members no longer with us.

The full soap ad that Patrick filmed for his shower return.

Alternative endings - scenes that were filmed for cliffhangers that were never used.

 

[Toni]

Behind the scenes of the Bobby shower scene. Uncensored.

 

[Barbara Fan]

First and foremost I want the full interview of the cast on the Dinah Shore show

Id also like to hear from Steve Kanaly who has a much better memory of events than his co stars and Id like to hear "original" stories - never heard before - from different cast members including the "also starring cast" like Morgan Brittany, Audrey landers, John Beck and people who worked on the set behind the scenes

I dont really want another "irish Spring soap" story - something different, unusual, and any contribution from VP would be gratefully received,

and outtakes from S4 onwards that have never been released - dont bother with the final season tho!

I'd like to see the cast comment on how Dallas and it's success reflected the zeitgeist of the late 1970s and 1980s. I'd like Larry to elaborate on his comment that if Dallas really portrayed the oil business the offices of CBS would be blown to smithereens. I thought JR's comment in an episode, "What's good for the country is not necessarily good for the country" was very radical, especially for the 1980s.
You know what else? I'd like to hear dirt from people like Morgan Fairchild, Steve Forrest and Barbara Bel Geddes. You know, who hated who, who felt slighted, etc.

I would like to hear more about other Dallas cast members and how they felt about their good storylines disappearing. I know Steve Kanaly mentioned it before, plus how Susan Howard felt maybe. I would like to know John Beck, Marc Singer or Barry Jenner. Sadly, we can’t ask Jared Martin or Dack Rambo how they felt wiping away those great scenes or not knowing where their stories were originally going.

A “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”-like contest, with golden tickets. The prize? A tour of Victoria Principal’s house/ranch, guided by Victoria herself.

What did that mean, specifically?

 

[Jimmy Todd]

What did that mean, specifically?

Oops. I misquoted it. What he said was, "What's good for the country is not necessarily good for Ewing Oil."

 

[Karin]

The only extras I'm really interested in are the deleted scenes and the gag reels/blooper reels.
I especially want the deleted scenes since it's more of the show we all love.

 

[Snarky Oracle!]

A special feature which:

**allows you to replace Donna Reed's face and voice with that of Barbara Bel Geddes

**allows you to hear Bobby provide another explanation for why he just stepped out of Pam's shower other than "a terrible dream" -- it can cover all the bases you'd like, logically explaining away everything necessary to start afresh.

**allow you to add/subtract plot details during the last three seasons as you choose.

With the technology available today, almost anything is possible!

not to get extra ‘extra’ on you all, but I’d love to see an extra feature on this oft-featured blond mustachioed extra from the first several years of the show:

he must have shown up at least 10 times over the years, I think always in the LA sets or locations. I’m guessing he was a crew member, as I believe that’s him in the photo above.

Is he still around these days? What was his role behind the scenes?

He’d have first-hand info on everything from the saloon brawl in Landowne to the shooting of Bobby’s kidnappers (was JR really gunning for Cliff as well?) to the tipping habits of various Ewings - invaluable information for us fans!

I´d say that he was filming some gay adult movie in the Ewing hayloft...

 

[Luke_Krebbs_Ewing]

I'd love to see Chris Atkin's!

And preferably in or maybe out of those figure hugging, tight speedo's!

 

[bmasters9]

I'd like to see something about how Dallas' famous title sequence was made.

 

[CeeCee72]

As someone else has already said, I'd love to see cast members talk honestly about how they felt about some of their storylines. I'd be most interested to hear from VP, who had been largely silent and not participated in a lot of the joint interviews and reunions over the years.

I wonder could he be one of Katzman's two sons.

Mitchell Wayne Katzman and Frank Katzman they were called, I think.

She'd be great doing a few commentaries on some of her episodes. Digger's Daughter, Swansong and Fall of the House of Ewing spring immediately to mind.

 

[Laurie Marr]

I’d like to see a bonus CD containing complete and remastered performances of the most celebrated incidental scoring on the series.

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

actually... I want an extra disc that's just Sue Ellen's movie! It can 't really hurt anyone at this point with JR long dead, right?
