I LOVED DALLAS..ITS ONE OF MY MANY FAVORITES,FALCON CREST IS ANOTHER GREAT ONE........I TUNED IN EVERY TIME THE SHOWS AIRED ON FRIDAY'S.......THE NET WORKS OT TODAYS TIME NEED TO LEARN WHAT TRUE TELEVISION IS............
Donna Reed was an academy awarding winning actress and star of one of the most popular TVs programs ever on television. The folks from "Dallas" treated her like crap. Shameful.
They did the Season 1 miniseries entirely in Dallas in 1978, then they filmed exterior scenes there until 1989, when all production moved to Hollywood
Everybody loves Dallas - even Queen Elizabeth II of Windsor. Check out my tribute to Dallas on youtube "Dallas theme done Windsor style". You'll love it.
In 1984 Barbara Bel Geddes suffered a major heart attack and left the show on doctor's advice. Because Miss Ellie was such a key figure - especially after the loss of Jim Davis & Jock Ewing's "death" - the producers felt they needed to recast the role (Larry Hagman's mother Mary Martin was even considered). Donna Reed joined the cast mid-season in 1985, and her final scene was with the family in Bobby's hospital room when he "died".
Larry Hagman elbowed Donna Reed off the show because he wanted Barbara Bel Geddes back. They should have waited before they recast Barbara. They could have sent Miss Ellie on a year long European tour or something like that untill they knew for sure if Barbara would come back. I heard that Donna Reed was devastated after she was fired by Larry Hagman.
I liked her, and when she was critcized for the way she was changing the personna of Miss Ellie, her response was "that's why they call us actors". Once she was dumped from the role, she said she felt very embarrased that her career (which she had largely retired from prior) would end with such a distaster. Sad, because she died of cancer less that a year after her final episode.
THAT IS REALLY SAD! Sometimes producers and such are kind of heartless. It wasnt her fault they wanted her to replace Barbara, but after the fact they act like SHE just showed up and took over. THEY hired her, they should have stood behind their own decission and not pawned it off on her...
Why is this clip named 'Dallas intro with new linda gray'??? Linda Gray is Linda Gray, but I think you may mean Dallas intro with new Ms Ellie aka Donna Reed and not Barbara Bel Geddes....
Larry, Lynda, Patrick,Susan, Steve, Ken, Priscila, Charlene, Pamela: Jesus Christ. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. (Acts 4:12 Your Bible)
I am a sinner forgiven by Jesus Christ. He paid for my sins on the cross, by his blood shed there. I believe in Jesus Christr, I believe that by my Saviour and Lord I enter to the Heaven, to enjoy for the eternity many adventurers qith all the saved people by thier faith in Jesus, in the heavenly Jeruslaem, Nwe Earth, New Heavens, in the company of million of strong and saint angels, in a gold streets, and crystal sea. I believe that I enjoy the fruit of the tree of life. Revelations 21,22 Bible
radburn89, people who are not religious claim that Christianity is intolerant of their non claiming religious ideas, but atheists and non theists are the real bigots because they tend to lampoon anyone that belives in the "antiquated" notion of God
i'm not stoping you in believeing anything you want, but come on if there is a god an almighty being that created the human race is out there, why let his creation suffer with illnesses and disease or hunger, anyway i believe what i believe, i just dont believe in a 'God' that doesn't do anything for people,
Then tell me if people are so good why do they cause so much sufferin in this world? God allows things to happen as a result of free will, and he does stop things from happening too. Would you rather be a robot and live in bliss or have free will and live in this world we have here without the ability to choose?
my idol is jr...and i liked the w107 mercs where they drove...jr is born in 1931..i cant believe that he looks that young...i hope i am some day finlands own Jr.or bobby...but i would be rather jr ...that bobby
I loved this show and watched it faithfully for many year. I got sick of it after a while, however, I did start watching it at the end. The women were just gorgeous and the men were so sexy. It was the type of show that made you dream a lot.
on of the best shows from the 80s... I was the same way as "jamespeterlive" my mom watched this every week and so I watched it with her... before I knew it I was hooked.. Prisilla Pressley was a hottie too
It's funny how different the intro seems to me now that I live in the DFW area. For awhile, whenever I drove to my job I wasn't like "Wow, the Cowboys play right over there" ... I was like "Damn, I am only halfway to work."
I will never forget the lineup on CBS every Friday Night. The Dukes of Hazzard at 7:00, Then Dallas at 8:00, and Falcon Crest at 9:00. I love Dallas, I remember watching it when I was a young kid, always loved J.R. and his ruthless attitude. Absolutely T.V. at it's Best!!!!!
We didn't realise the shows we watched in those days would end up as classics in the distant future. Even though 'soaps' are just as popular as ever, I think it has had it's 'golden age'. We were lucky enough to see something fresh and exciting. Today, 'its all been done before', and done badly.
JR is the man we all love to hate!! Don't worry about the comment mess up - I'm the king of screwed up comments on YouTube!! - I just clicked on your channel; are you really 13? I turn 40 in January!!! What got you into Dallas? JR and Sue Ellen were really hot and controversial in the late 70's and early 80's. Even today - they're still WOW!! -
PLEASE DONT READ THIS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOW UV STARTED READIN DIS DUNT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY. SEND THIS OVER TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKs
No no no no, Barbara Bel Geddes got sick and had to leave the show for a season, then returned. Donna Reed played a nice Miss Ellie, Barbara Bel Geddes played the REAL Miss Ellie with Power! I lost interest in the show after Pam left:( but then became a fan of Sheree J. Wilson! Pam and Sue Ellen have always been my favorite but oddly enough when I was 10 at the time I saw the show air (1986), Lucy was my favorite!
This isn't ''new'', it's just home-made, you used a clip from season 11 on the left, from season 2 for the middle and another from season 11 on the right.
What I meant by ''new'' was that credits were never used before, so therfore, they would have been new to viewers. When (and if I ever do) get my version made, I will send them straight to you.
I see, thanks for the info. So I need Final-Cut-Pro on Mac? I will try searchuing for this. I did make an opening credits before, but it's just them all edited together season-by-season.
I remember her being fired because the fans didn't like her playing Miss Elli, so Barbara Bel Geddes returned. It sad because Donna Reed died from cancer not soon after.
