Dallas returns
with TV movie
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The
gusher that was Dallas still has a
few vintage barrels left to give.
One of the longest-running
series ever, second only to Gun-
smoke, the family saga of big oil
and big greed returns as a televi
sion movie Friday with its key
players little changed.
I.R. Ewing’s appetites — for sex,
for power, for manipulation — are
intact. He's slowed a few steps but
he’s still a crude ole boy, and Larry
Hagman again plays him with relish.
“A conscience is a lot of trou
ble. It’s like a boat or an airplane:
If you ever feel you need one, rent
it,” Ewing said at one point, his
eyes sparkling with that I.R. zest
that means folks should be
watching their backs.
Let attorney Richard Fish of
Ally McBeal spout his little say
ings known as Fishisms; he’s got
nothing on J.R.’s capital-isms.
Dallas: War of the Ewings, air
ing 9 p.m. EDT Friday on CBS,
also brings back Bobby Ewing
(Patrick Duffy) as the good son
and Sue Ellen Ewing (Linda Gray)
as the not-so-good (but now
more liberated) former wife of J.R.
The shenanigans are roughly
the same as in the 1978-91 series:
This time out, Bobby and Sue
Ellen have control of Ewing Oil
and J.R. wants it back. We also get
bar fights, cattle rustling and pro
fessional women dressed in un-
professionally sexy outfits.
It seems that Dallas is caught
in a bit of a time warp, a product
of the Decade of Greed that
spawned it. Executive producer
Rich Heller cheerfully agrees.
“If you talk about a sexist,
chauvinistic, self-serving, self-
centered series, that was Dallas,
that was what everybody wanted
to see. The question becomes: Do
you change it? Do you make it
politically correct?" Heller asked.
A rhetorical question, it
turns out.
“No. Hell, no,” he said.
That’s not to say the formula
can’t be tinkered with a bit. Dal
las enjoys a bit of a wink at itself,
stopping just shy of parody. It’s
clear no one’s really going to get
hurt this time around. After all
these years, the battles do not
seem quite so urgent.
