[QUOTE="Rove, post: 421184, member: 100"] For me Dallas was a little bit of a slow burn but once it kicked into overdrive with Sue Ellen's pregnancy I was glued to my television. Nothing since comes close to my heart which Dallas still holds. If I recall I only knew of Patrick Duffy (Man from Atlantis) and Larry Hagman (I Dream of Jeannie). It's been mentioned here numerous times that the casting for Dallas was superb...it was. A great ensemble and only enhanced with additional actors and perfectly cast secondary characters. Dallas changed the television landscape. Without it there would have been no Knots Landing, Dynasty, Falcon Crest. It proved to the television executives there was a market for big adult contemporary drama. We had Hill Street Blues, L.A. Law, E.R. The Sopranos, Succession and now Yellowstone and its spin-offs. And lastly. Thank you Dallas for creating the [I]cliff-hanger.[/I] A tool still used today. 47. Where have the years gone? [/QUOTE]
