    Monday night's return of Dallas is a joy and everything fans could ask for--the past, present and future all skillfully bound up in a high-gloss melodrama full of deceit, greed, Velveeta and (surprisingly enough) even love.

    If there's a nighttime soap any better, I haven't seen it.

    The plots are twistier than a fishtail braid and only lag when the conversation turns to energy. [25 Jan/1 Feb 2013, p.112]

  1. Dallas Season 2 was a big improvement of Season 1. More twists and turns and some wonderfully written episodes. Linda Gray knocks it out of the park this year playing Sue Ellen Ewing. Full Review »
  2. Having never watched the original 70's shows I had to be practically forced to watch the new Dallas programme and I have to admit to really rather enjoying it. Yes, it is campy soap opera, but within its own limitations it isn't badly written and is performed with confidence and conviction by a great cast of old and new faces. As I am now a convert if there is a season 3 I will certainly be watching. Full Review »
  3. Excellent show- well done. It is very fast paced and I love how they make the twists so amazing that you don't always see them coming at you. This is a very good show Full Review »
