[QUOTE="James from London, post: 37289, member: 22"] 1. New Dallas Season 3: The three-way split is back! Beyond exciting. All the more so cos they'd left it a couple of seasons (a bit like how New Doctor Who didn't really start referencing the old Doctors until its third or fourth Christmas special). Coolest cast pic: Julie Gonzalo striding forward in slow-motion. [MEDIA=youtube]at5qlQnzoZI[/MEDIA] 2. Old Dallas Season 4: It seemed like we had to wait forever after JR was shot for the show to come back and when it did there were new opening credits with a funky disco twang. Best cast pic: Linda Gray doing her lip-twitching guilty face. 3. Old Dallas Season 13: Very unexpectedly, the opening credits go all sexy and modern with explosions and fast cuts and James Beaumont - and Lucy appearing to drown in a jacuzzi full of oil. It felt like a new era. Best cast pic: Kimberly Foster walking into JR's office like she belongs there. 4. New Dallas Season 1/2: Speaking of new eras.

Old Dallas Season 10: The picture's a little fuzzier and a bit squished in places, but who cares? Bobby's back, Sue Ellen, Donna and Pam all have sexy new hair, and Dack Rambo is sometimes in it.
