Could've sworn it was all a dream A dream that turned ultimately into a nightmare for the shows ratings! The turning of the tide with Dallas ratings can be pinpointed to that dream season reveal. It really cost the show. Perhaps the dead not dead Den Watts and Kathy Beale from EastEnders would be a better example! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lard Bazaar 3,799 Posted September 27, 2017 Dallas was fucking ace. And the recent revival was pretty good as well. JR Ewing, what a fucking man he was! They don't make soaps like that any more. I mean, Hollyoaks, what an absolute pile of wank that is. Bring back the Ewings, I say! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let these be his parting words:"My sites were picked up by Trump supporters all the time," Horner told The Washington Post in 2016. "I think Trump is in the White House because of me.

Quite alive apparently, unlike many of the corpses which have been popping into crematoriums, funeral parlors and cemeteries this month. By the way folks, less than two days to my birthday--- September 31, be sure to mark it in on your calendar or car wax.

msc 18,476 Posted October 1, 2017 I had heard of Bob Barker through WWE and Happy Gilmore, but hadn't heard of Hall until I visited this place. In fact, originally I thought it was a strange American nickname for "not yet discredited back then" Stuart Hall! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hall (and the show) were pretty iconic. There is even a math problem or theory I guess named after him.
