DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 12: “Fallen Idol”
A shopping mall on SouthFork? Bobby betrayed by an old friend? J.R. and Pam having lunch at the country club ??? Has 1970s World become as crazy as our own coronavirus times? Let’s head out to the South 40 and see how the Ewings fare in this week’s Dallas recap! As J.R. deals with some […]
DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 10: “Act of Love”
An odd title, for a Dallas episode, but what do I know? This episode turns up the heat between Sue Ellen and Cliff AND sets up the long-running subplot of who is John Ross’s daddy REALLY! As we shelter in place and sew masks out of chiffon, let’s travel back in time and sit a […]
Logan’s Run – Season 1, Episode 14: “Turnabout”
Oh, what a long and non-shirtless trip it’s been! I’ve so enjoyed plunging into the chiffon-filled world of the future. It’s fascinating to revisit these things with grown-up eyes and a much-different worldview. What have we learned in 13 episodes? That Logan couldn’t keep hold of his gun if it was glued to him. That […]
DALLAS – Season Two, Episode 9: “Survival”
By now, everyone has finished watching Tiger King and you’re needin’ a Southern-style drama fix. Well, this may be the 70s and it may not have tiger cubs … but Bobby and J.R. are about to go down in a plane crash and will probably (gasp) have to work together to survive! Are you ready […]
DALLAS – Season Two, Episode 8: “Election”
Oohh, this episode is a bit TOO relevant. I wonder if I should have waited until November for this one! It’s time for Cliff Barnes to try his hand at politics and get knocked down by the Ewings when a secret from his past comes back to haunt him. Let’s dive back into the Coronavirus-free […]
DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 7: “Runaway”
Wow. What a week. With the global news and the COVID outbreak so dire, I have one bright spot – this week’s Dallas recap. And it may be the second or third best episode ever! Better than “Who Shot J.R.?” you ask? Did that episode have a van with a total shag carpet interior? Nope. […]
DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 6: “Double Wedding”
Pam was married before Bobby? Oh, hell we better dive right in! We start with Pam massaging Bobby, which I am not mad about. He points out that years on the road, followed by a short stint in the office, have not prepared his muscles for 14 hour days on the ranch. Imma point out, […]
DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 4: “Bypass”
It’s the Jock has a heart attack episode! For me, this was when Dallas truly started sinking its hooks into me. I loved it up until now, but when Jock had a heart attack, we moved into the type of soap opera tropes that General Hospital weaned me on. If only Bobby and Pam had […]
DALLAS – Season 2, Episode 2; “Old Acquaintance”
To me, Season Two started off slow. Gary #1 wasn’t the reunion I’d hpped for and now, it’s time for another reunion, with someone we’ve never heard of – Jenna Backstory, I mean, Wade. I’ve never liked Jenna Wade. In theory, the idea of an old flame of Bobby’s makes sense. Bobby wouldn’t cheat, so […]
