Dallas HD Amazon Freevee

Thanks for this detailed response. I wasn’t sure if the episodes on FreeVee were now being broadcast in HD, as I assumed Warners was going to wait and premiere the remastered episodes exclusively on HBO Max. I was skeptical that Season 10 was in HD because the opening credits still look so awful and low quality, as if they didn’t even bother to do any remastering on the opening credits. Yet, after reading your comment, I went and actually watched an episode of Season 10, and it indeed looks better. Why they didn’t clean up the credits for season 10 is beyond me.

Likewise with me-- if they were going to clean up these seasons for HD, they should have done the whole job (titles included), instead of just doing the story.

They have some work to do. Don't know if this a bigger issue, but I just ran across an episode that's out of place. S6 E22 is replaced with an episode of the later seasons.

Was just thinking-- do you think the reason why the titles were not touched is because they figure that some might just want to see the stories (plots), and as such, the title sequence might not have been important to some?

In that case they should stop "thinking for the audience", do their job properly and let the audience decide for themselves, if they want wo see the opening titles or not.
It's basically the package for each episode. Who would buy an ortherwise nice product, if the package looks like crap?!

The season 10 opening has been remastered. In fact it was rebuilt from scratch. It wasn't done properly though. While the openings for a number of seasons contain one or two lower quality shots (there are countless reasons as to why), season 10 is the worst and in particular Victoria's center shot is horrendous and worse, there is no reason for it because it's the same that was used in numerous seasons prior and could have been taken from there.

Is there a video from that season 10 opening somewhere?

Maybe @Garry could upload the Dallas season ten opening title sequence so we can all get a look at the quality or lack of quality of the HD remastering.
