Nevertheless, Dallas always seemed to me to be particularly mystifying in trying to map the passage of ‘real’ time onto the events that happened on screen. It’s also complicated by the fact that vintage Dallas seemed to be set always in summer (as the shooting schedule dictated) but there’s still something stubbornly anachronistic about the Ewingverse. Was there any plot that, to you, seemed particularly bizarre in terms of how it could have played out in real time?</blockquote>
