[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 414048, member: 57984"] ^^ Yes, exactly all of that. Industry standards dictate that the April 1978 mini-series is considered "Season 1" (and always has been) because it's part of the 1977/78 TV season and as separate from the 13 subsequent full seasons as they are from each other --- although DALLAS fans and folks from the show tend to use the "mini-series thru 13" count and never knew there was ever another way to count them, insisting that when Warners started releasing the DVDs on 2004 that their "1 thru 14" count was a change, and new, and different and wrong. When you explain to them that both counts have existed from the very beginning, and that that's checkable, they don't want to hear it and, if anything, double down on whatever their assertion or preferred count is, arguing that it's the original (and only) true count. I mean, it can get confusing, admittedly. ----------- I wish somebody could find my old "The Lout and Miss Shepard" poem, part of the original [I]Sue Ellen vs. Jesus[/I] thread from posts of yore.. It was my greatest accomplishment -- other than the "Nonsensical Insults" thread. Now also lost to time... [ATTACH type="full" width="622px" alt="suellenisholy.jpg"]54944[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
