@Barbara Fan I'm sure PD said he was 72, maybe his memory is going,

Didn’t realise that @Clubsoda - I only remember it vaguely. I actually thought he referred to Victoria as pigstick nutty and thought he might have been referring to her humour.

He didn't mean she was funny at all he was talking about Bobby and Pams marriage as being an unsuccessful one due to the fact Pam was pigstick nutty. He just said it for Sherees benefit I think to big up the Bobby and April combination. Sheree found it hilarious, Linda looked surprised.

:re::ms::censer:

Calling April a desperate stalker now that would've been amusing.

Okay I feel like I just have to address this since as @Laurie! has already been pointed out, I did that interview. So I was there when he made that "Pigstick nutty" comment. So this is my take on it.

I was not impressed by that interview.

My opinion of him dropped considerably with his behaviour in that interview.

He attempts to tarnish one of the most best loved characters of the show, Pam Ewing.

I am sorry to hear that since that interview was made for the fans. So since a lot of fans wanted Pam to return in season two, which had just wrapped back in 2013, we wanted to address the way Pam's story was wrapped up and get Patrick's take on it. He told us that the potential for Pam to return was there but that she chose not to return.

I got the feeling that he wouldn't have minded if she had returned but that he respected her choice not to return.

I have also been fortunate to interview Patrick at an earlier occasion where he talked complimentary about Victoria Principal and said that they worked well together. So I really don't think there are any bad feelings between them even if they don't seem to be friends like he is with some of his other co-stars.

I disliked when he made the "pigstick nutty" comment in Karin Schill's interview too. It was a great interview by Karin but Patrick behaves different when with Sheree, etc. He hasn't learned that you can compliment former co-stars while with the replacements.

Thank you Laurie! I am glad you think it was a great interview. :)
You are right, Sheree was sitting right there next to him and actually that comment came up when I asked where Sheree would see April today if she hadn't died. She said April would still be married to Bobby and Patrick agreed. So well it was implied that Pam was nuts for leaving Bobby. That's the context of that comment.

I wouldn't necessarily say 'pigstick nutty' is a bad thing @Via The Void - he maybe just meant she was funny :)

Oh Patrick was definitely trying to be funny when he said that. It was said with a twinkle in his eye. So I wouldn't read too much into that comment even if some Victoria Principal fans unfortunately didn't find it funny at all. I should hope that VP gets his sense of humor.

Patrick is a funny guy and really nice too. I have met him several times and he is always nice to his fans. So I would hate for my interview with him from way back to change your opinion of him!

There's a nice and lengthy podcast interview of Patrick Duffy on the Hollywood and Beyond podbean site. The title of this thread was supposed to say Podcast at the end.

It's about 100 minutes long and mostly DALLAS memories. Very nice interview and even gives the name of the woman he's dating.

Thanks Laurie! That podcast was a treat to listen to. Good to hear that he has found happiness with Linda Purl.
