Dallas is one of those sitcoms that can only be described as legendary. Dallas aired for 14 years on CBS. It aired on Friday evenings from 1978 to 1991. The show revolved around two feuding Texas families. The rich and powerful Ewing Family, led by the patriarch Oil Tycoon, John Ross Ewing Sr. Aka Jock Ewing and the Barnes family, led by his former co worker and friend Willard Barnes, aka Digger Barnes. The show also had a great assortment of characters and drama to boot. This show gave birth to one of the most rememerable television characters of all time, the character you loved to hate, none other than JR Ewing. JR was portayed by the late great Larry Hagman. The show was innovative and gave birth to the quote season ending cliff hanger, which viewers would have to wait until next season for a resolution. The show was ground breaking and gave birth to one of the most anticipated episodes in history, "A house divided" or better known as Who shot JR episode. The show became a worldwide phenomenon that not only aired in the US but in over 60 countries. Every Friday night was Dallas night in my houshold which brings back found memories with my family watching the dysfunctional Ewing Clan. This show had it all: style, money, power, corruption, scandalous sex, powerful story lines, and an unforgettable cast of supporting characters. If you have never watched this series please do, you will be glad you did.
