My Top Ten of Daddy´s and Mommie´s Dearest:

1- Bobby (please I want one like that)
2- Pam (the post-accident mummy was NOT Pam!)
3- Miss Ellie (when not breaking china!)
4- Clayton (the perfect "Papa Bear")
5- Donna (in and out of Pam´s dream)
6- Valene (the "no mountain high" Mama)
7- Holly Harwood´s dad (for giving his company to such a brainless daughter)
8- Cally (with both John Ross and Chris)
9- Sue Ellen (when sober and not always)
10- Jessica (she would KILL for her son! And more than once!)

1. Bobby
2. Miss Ellie
3. Pam (blame the writers & Katzman for her leaving at the end)
4. Sue Ellen
5. Donna
6. Digger (although he was a drunk he did not abandon 2 kids and loved them equally one of them which was not his own which he knew.)
7. Jenna (although never liked her, have to admit she was a good mother)
8. Ray
9. Clayton
10. Aunt Maggie (she was willing to help raise 2 kids that was not her own)

1. Bobby (I know you are probably wondering if this is possibly a joke on my part, but I really did think that he was good to Christopher. Well, maybe not the whole leaving-a-loaded-gun-in-the-closet-thing, but still!)
2. Donna
3. Clayton (You must be a good dad if your son doesn't mind being lied to for years about not actually being your son. Lol)
4. Jenna (Well, she did seem to spend more time with her kid than all of the other Dallas parents put together with theirs!)
5. Digger
6. Sue Ellen (She was good once she got the drinking under control).
7. JR (The parent who loved his son, but also had no idea what the hell he was doing at times. I blame some of it on his own upbringing).
8. Vanessa Beaumont (She was very concerned about her airheaded son, James).
9. Valene (Despite how she left, I really felt like she just felt trapped in her situation, and tried her hardest to patch things up with Lucy).
10. Herbert Wentworth (Because Katherine adored him).
11. Kristin (No, not really. Just kidding! Lol!)
 

Kenny Coyote

Telly Talk Star
1. Jock (No other parent on Dallas was as loved and emulated by his children. Jock set the standard to which they aspired.)
2. Miss Ellie
3. JR
4. Jenna
5. Clayton
6. Bobby
7. Sue Ellen
8. Vanessa Beaumont
9. Carter McKay
10. Valene (I dislike it when children have children)

If Southfork is one of your favourites,
please list it as one and not the lounge/kitchen/bedroom.

You can list the pool and exterior separate,
however I'm looking for a variety of locations
and not to be swamped with just Southfork



Let’s see where your favourite sets feature in our top ten

Totals next weekend
