Ideas for Characters to Live on

Can you think of ways the characters can live on? We discussed before the possibilities of animated series and sequels/prequels and purchase of rights by Disney like Star Wars. Could you see the actors being in character for commercials? Perhaps the actors could reunite as new characters in a show or movie

I think it would be a hoot if Dallas was presented as a theatre show; starring Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray, Josh Henderson and others. I would base it around the death of a character and have the Ewing family members gather at the living room of Southfork. Of course my set would be a replica of Lorimar Dallas, not that horrid TNT version.

I'd love for Bobby to drop by The Conners and Jackie going crazy at the sight of him, the former TV heartthrob from her childhood days. Roseanne (the show) did somthing similar when General Hospital's Luke & Laura appeared in their soap characters, so it would fit into the Roseanne-Conners' history. Bobby wouldn't visit on his own, his new love interest would be Charlene Matock (Linda Purl) and Jackie recognizes her immediately as the daugther of her favorite tv lawyer ever, Matlock, wondering how the two could become a couple.

The only real future for Dallas itself is a complete re-boot with new actors.

Most of the show's former stars are all too old now. :)

If you are old enough to remember, this is exactly why The Love Boat was so popular. It was a great excuse to bring actors back into the spotlight.

Here's a great thread from a few weeks ago. Click the link and it will be a stroll down memory lane.


Thank you @Swellin for starting it, and thank you @Miss Piggy Mistress of the Greenness , @Trick-Or-Treat Stevens and @Barbara Boo!

I enjoyed my lunch break by reading through all of your great posts. I appreciate the work you put into it.
