Other Houses That Could be Southfork

[Ray_Krebbs]

If another sequel or remake occurs, and the famous Southfork house becomes unavailable, what other houses could you accept as a new residence? It could be explained a tornado got the typical one, and it had been rebuilt over time. I checked Google under Texas ranch houses and found this:

They would just have to build a false doorway on a green screen background and use CGI to produce the original Southfork building.

Somebody posted a good alternative Southfork house -- I think when they were still talking about doing a DALLAS theatrical film -- perhaps in Houston, but I can't seem to find it.

Here's another that reminds me of both Southforks and seems large enough to house all those people.

I like this one!

I love that one, Snarled. It is like the love child of Filoli and Southfork. This is the interior blueprints of one I posted.

there’s probably something on this site that would be in the ballpark of matching the floorplan:

McMansion Hell

If you love to hate the ugly houses that became ubiquitous before (and after) the bubble burst...

When TNT Dallas was announced, there was a rumor that they would use this house as SF:

Thanks to the Soap Gods they didn´t...​

I reckon this one is perfect for Southfork.

I'm in two minds about this. The majority of mansions in and around Dallas or Texas I've stumbled across on Google images look to be really tacky. All that new money and still no taste. Would the new producers go for one of those ghoulish mansions and in the process turn viewers off? The Ewing's might have been rich but the writers were clever in not thrusting that wealth in our faces. The Ewing's were touchable and relatable. When viewing Southfork all those years ago to me it looked like a mansion when in reality it's not. I'll also add the house just sat beautifully on that piece of land...unfortunately the land around Southfork is shrinking to housing development.
