Just beautiful :) The 'person' she was talking to could learn a little about class from her ;)

Sue Ellen and Don?
Anyone else think they were a mismatched couple?:mo:

I remember thinking he was rather dull when I first watched the show. I liked the Sue Ellen's movie plot though as it taught me about what had happened earlier on in the show.

Thanks for the videoclip. It's interesting to see how they filmed things and what it looked like behind the scenes. From the looks of things they were filming the first episode of season 7 (DVD) at that point since Southfork was under reconstruction after the fire.

Yes he did. I just love them together. :kiss:

Just too bad that Larry died before they could properly reunite JR/SE. :(
I remember how excited I was back in 2012 when we got a new scene with them. In fact the first day I could say that I felt "better" after my grandpa's passing in dec-12, was on the day that we got to watch the episode where those screencaps that you have posted were from. The new Dallas was not all I had hoped it would be. But it actually helped pulling me through a very dark period of my personal life and made my every day life a little bit brighter. So for that I am grateful. :)

And yeah, too bad we didn't get a JR/Sue Ellen reunion. Even if the Dallas TNT writers would have probably messed up many things, that would have still been something!!!!!:(

I know it would have been awesome. Also I could tell when Linda was talking about how CC had told her they had planned to reunite JR/SE at the end of season two that she was a bit sad that never happened. It's in this Ultimate Dallas Exclusive interview:

That's true @Karin Schill - apparently the script had them going into a bedroom and closing the door. :kiss: I'm so sad we never got to see it, but I know in my heart she's the only woman he ever truly loved, so I can live with that. :kiss:

That JR money meme reminds me of a T-shirt a friend gave me for my birthday one year. It had the same photo on it and the text read something like: "Happiness can be bought." :lolo:

Anyone else have any Dallas T-shirts?

I think I have 5 official ones (the JR one, one with Sue Ellen's mug shot, one with the text I love Sue Ellen, one with the 1979 cast and one that says I shot JR.)
and
1 from Dallas Fan Club Stuttgart (just black with the logo I got that in the 1990s)
3 home made ones (also had them made in the late 1990s before there were official ones).

Yet as much as I love Dallas I rarely ever use the T-shirts in public. The exception being back in 2012 when I kept walking around in the official t-shirts a lot to promote the new show! :giggle:

In retrospect I wish Dallas would have made a comeback sooner. I mean can you imagine if they had begun filming a new show back in 2004 instead when they made the Return to Southfork reunion?

I mean how awesome wouldn't that have been!

Although these scenes mark the beginning of the end for me, she is incredibly sexy and beautiful here:

I have about 10 t shirts Karin. I wear the Sue Ellen that Tiani bought me quite a lot and I have a Team Sue Ellen Ireland one given to me by a friend in Texas.

I especially hated that there was zero attraction/chemistry between them. Of all of JR's mistresses, she's the one I don't get...:think:

I personally don't get any of them. There's more chemistry between my tiny toe and my ear than Winger and him and don't even start me on Vanessa snoozefest.

I'd be really interested to see what would have happened had Mandy cheated with Bobby while with Pam. I bet she wouldn't be so revered then. People hate April, but why? April didn't cheat with a married man, but then oh yes she was involved with Pam's ex!

Anyway. Yes the affair with Kimberly was the beginning of the end of Dallas in my opinion.
