Just when I thought it couldn't get worse the a remake of "Hawaii Five O" (http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=166405) along comes this news (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/09/arts/television/09arts-WHORESHOTJRD_BRF.html?_r=1&ref=television):Get out the heart paddles: Warner Brothers is once again trying to resuscitate J. R. Ewing and his bourbon-loving “Dallas” clan for its sister cable network TNT, according to a producer and an agent with knowledge of the project. The show would focus on the next generation of Ewings....I'm not sure what is worse, making a similar show capitalizing on the old name or just making a similar show that everyone will say it looks like....:rolleyes:
Sounds to me like it's going to be Dallas: The Next Generation.
It worked for Star Trek, why not for Dallas?

I just read a message on another forum of someone decrying the fact that ER is gone. People want their favorite shows to continue/come back. I wouldn't deprive them of what they want, just because it isn't something I necessarily would care for.

I want the John Larroquette show to come back the way it was in the first season before NBC started tinkering with.
Doesn't mean it's gonna happen.

While were making wish lists I want The Practice, Drive, Life on Mars and Boston Legal back
This sounds like a great idea to me. While it never was my cup of tea, the soap side of primetime has of late featured unbelievable plot lines with non-working 20 something characters. Dallas, and the other shows of that era, featured more-believable characters and plots (at least early in the show's run) with adult actors playing adults.
As soon as we get the technology, let's begin bringing the dead back to life. :barf:
