Liked how random people would just stare and watch while they were filming. Lol

Up to "Road Work" - the first appearance of Tracy Lawton. I still like her the best of Bobby's latterday lovers, but I'm noticing more and more (with the benefit of hindsight) that they've really been positioning April all along. At the time I never saw her as a serious contender at all.

I figured April would end up with Bobby as soon as Cally was introduced. Dallas needed her as a female lead at that point. If she's not with JR or Cliff, she almost had to be paired with Bobby to keep her relevant.

So you´ve already seen that awful scene with April bitching out load in public to Bobby´s Bo-Derek clone date? I think I vomited back in the day...

he looks like a porn star from back than lol. that's why i haven't rushed to watch that era of Dallas. i've been in the mood to watch it again for some reason i start with the pilot and burn out during season 4. but that's a good season so i dunno why?

having said that i started watching this again and i watched Reunion Part 2 tonight i just finished with Old Acquaintance but on the audio commentary to Reunion part 2 they were talking about budget and Hagman admitted he got greedy. i had forgotten he did that and i can respect him for acknowledging that

Which makes his TNT Dallas personality quite baffling.

I want curbside video to pop up revealing JR going into Aunt Maggie's house -- or wherever it was -- carrying a shoebox. Turns out he planted it there, with fake evidence, and now Cliff's vengeful rage is back!

I've always said that given the passage of time there were ways to explain that. They just didn't.

To be fair, they didn't explain a whole lot of stuff. I feel like Cidre never watched the old Dallas and just took the names of all the characters and gave them totally different personalities (except for JR).

Victoria coming in with the fanfic ideas 
On a real note, they both look so lovely here. Really healthy and beautiful

My guess is that they were trying to accommodate both counts, dream and non-dream.
During the Wes Parmalee season, they said Jock disappeared five years ago and four years ago, just an episode or two apart.

Time was always weird on Dallas anyway. Given that the cliffhangers made it necessary to have the day of the end of one season be the first day of the new season, you could argue that time kinda stood still in that show anyway.

Scrolling through Dallas video clips and today it struck me how in a city as big as Dallas characters always managed to bump into each other so often at restaurants and stores and even just walking down the street. I live in a small town and I rarely see family or friends out when I am shopping. Seems a little too convenient.

I've noticed that too. I can understand the Oil Barons Club, because everybody hung out there. But they'd run into each at random restaurants across the city. One example was when Jock was having lunch with Julie Gray and Bobby and Pam just happen to show up.
