Dallas Top Ten Top Ten

[Victoriafan3]

Oh yes kit can be my #3, please drop Angelina to distant #4 lol

 

[Zach]

No. Her last name was never given. Grace van Owen was Susan Dey's character on L.A. Law.

Yes, I know, that's why I wondered. I thought it was probably just a coincidence.

 

[Don Howard]

Merete Van Kamp did confirm in an interview with Dallas Fanzine that that was Grace´s last name.

She's full of crap.

Well I think that is because it's a great episode, surely one of Dallas best ones, but it's not the episodes that are competing but the cliffhangers and it ended with Bobby dying, which is not something I wanted to see happening. So I think there were better cliffhangers than that one IMHO.
Like I voted for Bobby returning I loved that!

Then again I watched the dream season after I knew it was a dream and therefore I knew in advance that he didn't die which means that the episode never had the same emotional impact on me as on viewers who watched it during the original run. I only tuned in when Pam drove into that truck. I wanted her to live so that was what hooked me on Dallas.
