[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 310370, member: 19949"] I still wonder how CBS managed to get so many viewers excited about the finale. A year earlier, Falcon Crest's finale was subpar, so it wasn't a given that Dallas would be watched. Was the promo that good? Were all returnees known in advance or were there any surprises for the US viewers? Was it known that Joey Gray would guest star? [URL unfurl="true"]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_finale[/URL] Dallas ranks 12th in the most watched finals of all time. Audiences are generally more interested in sitcom finals than drama finals. When it comes to drama, Dallas even ranks 3rd behind The Fugitive and Magnum PI. I have no memory of the Magnum finale (even though I saw the show back then), but since Magnum also aired on CBS, good promos must have piqued the audience, too. [/QUOTE]
