That look in JR’s eyes when he realises he is not going to manage the company by himself . Pamela looks so surprised at hearing Bobby’s will … what a great tv show
I always loved this show. It is one of the more surreal shows on television. So many have gone on here. Truly amazing to see them all so well and full of life.
Disagree. When JR had his "good old boys" snatch John Ross from Sue Ellen at the airport and then Dusty Farlow intervened and got him back, that was the best stare of JR. Of course, this one here ranks high. Mojo ought to have a top ten of JR's stares.
George Petrie, who played Harv, was great in this scene! It is just him talking for 5 minutes straight but it is still moving and interesting, Very underrated actor.
The look on J.R'.s face.... "You have GOT to be kidding me!! Bobby, WHAT were you thinking?" Sigh... J.R. was one guy we LOVE to hate, wasn't he? R.I.P. Mr. Larry Hagman.
+Soojee Pyo, to me, Bobby was an idiot to that. 30% of Ewing Oil to his mother for Christopher. Don't mind that, but he should have given that to JR. I know Pam is your wife, but dude, that's Cliff Barnes sister man. She was thinking with his heart, not his head.
Soojee Pyo Larry Hagman said playing JR was like having a license to steal! He played him with a wink and a nod to the audience and his genius, paid off a hundredfold! Because of his talent, he played JR Ewing in a way that the viewers loved to hate. I always on JR’s side and I’m sure deep down that everyone that watched this series, felt the same way. How many TV villains had such forgiving followers? Larry WAS Dallas and because of his portrayal of JR Ewing, he became the true star and glue that kept Dallas on TV. He was irreplaceable and he knew it and he masterfully played the producers and network executives to renegotiate a deal that made him the highest paid and powerful actor on TV. A great man and my favorite actor. God bless and rest you, Mr Hagman. 👍
u darn right , J.R was the man we loved to hate , Larry Hagman did a huge superb job playn J.R ewing pure fact all the way to his last breath may he rest in peace.
Pam and JR are looking at each other and saying to themselves after learning that Pam is holding Christopher's shares in Ewing Oil "You have got to be kidding me!" Of course, this is what the Creator of Dallas(David Jacobs) wanted. To set up Pam and JR as protagonist and Antagonist and leaving the rest of the Ewings to mourn Bobby's death. Victoria Principal and Larry Hagman did a good job during this season!
A piece of trivia: Did anyone know that when Dallas was original conceived, Bobby was suppose to die in a car accident, and leave his percentage of Ewing Oil to Pam? The series was then supposed to be about Pam going on with her life without the love of her life and having to deal daily with the Ewings, especially JR. By the time the 5 part miniseries ended, Bobby proved to be too popular of a character to kill off so they scrapped that original ending.
HnHBlkM - I do recall reading about that. Only problem was Bobby didn’t own any part of Ewing Oil. Jock owned it all. Perhaps Pam would have received an inheritance from Bobby, but she would likely have taken it and left. Not sure why she would stay (the concept had her remaining at Southfork for dramatic purposes I believe).
Pretty clearly the inspiration for the initial miniseries was "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" by Tennessee Williams, with Jock as Big Daddy, Miss Ellie as Big Mama, Bobby and Pam as Brick and Maggie, JR & Sue Ellen as Brother Man and Sister Woman, and Lucy as the No-Neck Monster ...... In "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", Maggie was always the one who had to stand-up to Gooper. I believe that by intending to kill-off Bobby early in the show's run, David Jacobs intended to fully capitalize on the battles between Maggie the Cat and Brother Man.
Yeah, that blew me away! Also when Bobby talked about The Pocket Watch, it kind of reminded me of the one that Chase Gioberti inherited on the Pilot Episode of Falcon Crest. It belonged to his Father Jason with the Falcon Crest Logo on it. Also as you know Falcon Crest was produced by Lorimar that also holds the rights to Knots Landing, Eight Is Enough & The Waltons.
@@redletter2008 Yep - it was the main problem with the dream season concept, too. With Bobby gone, there was absolutely no reason for Pam to stick around and continue to be involved with the Ewings’ lives.
Barbara belGeddes is wonderful as always, she says so much without saying a word. It’s all in her face and body language, yet played with subtlety No histrionics
What great acting the cast REALLY made you feel the pain the joy and to show how the rich of the riches people deal with the ups and downs in this world ESPECIALLY when MONEY CAN'T buy.
This scene always brings me to tears. Very sad. Ellie is a good crier. I even felt bad for JR losing the only bother that he love - at least until he looked so shocked that Pam got control of 30% lol
@@kenjacoby7404 I do not remember, but I found this summary on Google. Not sure if it helps answers your question or not... " In 1986, Jack's former wife, April Stevens, turned up in Dallas to make a claim to half of his 10% of Ewing Oil. April proved that, during their divorce hearing, the judge granted her half of Jack's future income. However, Jack sold his 10% for one dollar to Jamie and presented April with her half - fifty cents. "
@@kenjacoby7404 Jack never died in the show . Dack Rambo the actor who played him died and his on screen sister was killed twice ! First time in the dream season
A great scene that is only missing one thing. Gary should have been there!!! Why wasn't he there, I wonder? Of course, we know it was only just a dream now, but still...he is mentioned in the will and was Bobby's brother, so including him in this scene would have made a lot more sense than having him absent from it.
Amen. He kind of reminds me of Nicholas Sparks and here's another Fun Fact. alot of the Old School Pulp Fiction Novels and Harlequin Novels are actually written by men.
Yes. Also CBS had no idea that was was supposed to be a Five Part Miniseries would be a Worldwide Phenomenon that this year celebrates 40 Years this year. It kind of parallels The UK Soap Opera Emmerdale that debuted in 1972 where it was only supposed to be 26 Episodes but now is The Second Longest Running Soap Opera on UK TV the longest being Coronation Street that debuted on December 9 1960. There was a Family similar to The Ewings called The Kings which consisted of Father Tom his Three Sons Matthew, Jimmy, Carl and a Long Lost Son from a rendez vous with a Woman named Max as well as a Daughter named Scarlett Mary by his Dying Wife's Nurse named Carrie.
Also Bobby could have written to JR "Thanks also for teaching me The Oil Business and never allowing me to cut corners, and in your own way you made me toughen up in a way that I didn't have before, I'd like to think that whatever success that I had as an Executive at Ewing Oil, was in part because of you."
@redletter2008 You're absolutely right. I'm so sorry. I forgot about all of that History. I'm a hopeless romantic and they were always my favorite couple. To me Bobby was such a great guy. Kind, compassionate, and forgiving and although he was far from perfect, he always tried to do the right thing. I almost forgot about Katherine and what she did. I think I realize now with Jenna, she discovered how "lucky" she was to have a second chance with Bobby.
Jock's will a few seasons before set off a fire storm if i recall. It caused so many problems that Ms. Ellie went to court to overturn Jock's will, and in order to do so she had to prove that Jock was mentally incompentent at the time he wrote the will. The court did not rule in her favor.
Bobby's death or his return didn't hurt the show- Pamela leaving the show hurt it. JR then lost focus, then Sue Ellen left and Ray... etc. ...the series should have ended in 1988.
You're right. The producers were told head of time and they didn't believe her that she wanted to leave in a set time. They tried to get George Kennedy and get rid of William Smithers in hindsight that wasn't a good idea. But yeah you're right that start of the trail downward.
An era changing moment in Dallas! For the preceding eight years was leading up to when Pamela would stand head to head and shoulder to shoulder with JR, if only they hadn’t of written this off as a dream!!! Biggest tv mistake ever
The ratings slipped this season and never recovered even after making this season a dream. I still say this would have made a great final season, especially with J.R. getting majority ownership in the end.
The biggest mistake the producers made was killing off the character of Bobby. They could of left the door open for him just in case he did come back. Killing him off also killed the show off. I did enjoy all the seasons but it wasn't the same after this.
@@LarryLeeMoniz Yea just a dream that he died, that made it worst then killing him off they should had came up with a better story line, They was going to make it where JR, faked his death at the hospital sent him off to a long term care facility he lost his memory and came back to Dallas that would had been better
altha 2014 yes but patrick Duffy wanted out he thought he was going to be a big Hollywood star instead he only made a film for tv only. He knew he made a mistake and it was Duffy wife that actually said if you have to get back into that show season 9 will have to be a dream plus Larry hagman was not getting on with producer Philip capice and threatened to leave the show unless they brought back Bobby and then the famous shower scene which was actually made for a ad for Irish spring water and they incorporated into the show and the rest is history
Patrick Duffy wanted to leave the show to explore other acting opportunities. The producers chose to kill him off. Larry Hagman was the one that talked him into coming back.
Yeah, you're right. I remember watching Dallas The Early Years and when Jock said goodbye to The Foster Family who went from having nothing to having so much and when he was getting to leave, he kissed Mrs. Foster which was quite a brave thing to do in the 1930's, a White Guy Kissing A Black Woman. It was kind of strange, they had Hispanics as Subservient Workers but with the exception of The BBQ Episode, you never saw them associate with Visitble Minorities.
Alex Luna He always looked as Gary as a "Weakling" because he couldn't handle the high expectations that Jock placed on them. Bobby could and because Ray only found out he was a Ewing in Later Years didn't have to deal with Jock the way he did. Gary was more Southworth than Ewing in the sense the he had a love of the Land. Personally speaking, I don't think that Jock thought too highly of Arthur Southworth since he couldn't save The Southfork on his own.
I just do not believe that Pam would dream about Ray and Donna's personal life. So, in the next season Ray and Donna should have stayed married with their adopted hearing impaired son, Tony. I did not mind that Patrick wanted to come back to the show. But does that mean since Bobby is back, should Ray and Donna should still lead separate lives, and then divorce, no of course not. Just because Bobby is back does not give the writers' the right to divorce Ray and Donna. As season progressed the viewers see less and less of Donna at South Fork.
No, Gary already got a Inheritance from Jock's Will although he got "Less" than JR & Bobby but got "More" than Ray. The reason why Bobby left Gary a Horse was because out of all of The Ewing Sons, Gary was the one who had the most love of the Land and was good with Horses, Gary also had a closer bond with Bobby than he ever did with JR. Also, in Miss Ellie's Eyes, Gary had more characteristics of a Southworth than a Ewing which Jock wasn't impressed by.
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s television! I wish Dallas could have lasted forever! Bobby Ewing was soooooo hot! And Pam was perfect, in every way that women care about! She was smart, beautiful, loyal, and most of all, Independent! There was nothing that J.R. Ewing didn't know about the oil business, and that made him hot as well!!!!! Damn, I miss the original series!!!
This is the far the most underrated season of the show. Without Bobby everyone focused on his loss and never gave credit ( or even a hoot) to the shenanigans of this season. True they had to erase it to bring Bobby back, but that was because the head honchos hadn’t the time to create another good storyline to bring Bobby back in another realistic way. They had only a few months to do it. True it had other issues like the glitter and glamour which hadn’t been made for Dallas, but it wasn’t that bad overall. Those glitches still could of been fixed had the seasons end continued.
Can someone clarify if I'm wrong? I am sure I once read where the writers had thoughts of killing off the character of Bobby soon after the series started in order to create the intense hatred between the Ewing’s and Barnes. Obviously the Ewing’s/Barnes feud was already there however having that Barnes woman living at Southfork would just intensify the story.
Later in this season JR is no where near as nasty as he had been to the pont of not at all. Making peace with Sue Ellen treating her right, not cheating her, just about making peace with Cliff , Jamie and Pam, been ok with Clayton, Ray & Donna. He even as the show was coming to a close was starting to become a life saving anti hero especially in his partnering along and being friendly with Dack Rambo. This season wasn't so bad.
@redletter2008 Yeah, you're so right. Thanks for reminding me. When "Jenna #1" then played by Morgan Fairchild came along, I initually hated her. Pam was trying so hard to be "accepted" by the Family and now this "Woman" came back into Bobby's life. Also, I had my reservations about Priscilla Presley playing Jenna #3 after Francine Tacker (The Paper Chase TV Series). You were right about her working hard as a Single Mother.
I love his message to Pam “A wish to be happy and a certainty that you will. Remember the good times and that there are many more to come.” He knew she was a survivor in life.
I love how Bobby acknowledged Ray as his Brother.
Ray WAS his brother. Well, half brother in any event.
JR'S Reaction is priceless.
That look in JR’s eyes when he realises he is not going to manage the company by himself . Pamela looks so surprised at hearing Bobby’s will … what a great tv show
you missed the one point of it..not that he has to share running Ewing Oil but share it with a member of the Barns family, his sworn enemy.
@@MrShugarcube Good point 👌🏻
It was a dream It never happened
This was part of the dream season. It never happened, except in an alternate universe.
@@YahnathanThompson-rv2hrgreat tv show , isn’t it?
From the first time we heard the theme song.. to the roll of the last credits.. there was never, and will never be another show like it.
I always loved this show. It is one of the more surreal shows on television. So many have gone on here. Truly amazing to see them all so well and full of life.
The greatest stare JR ever cast upon anybody on Dallas 👍
Agreed and the return stare from Pam might have been the most meaningful ever given back to JR.
Disagree. When JR had his "good old boys" snatch John Ross from Sue Ellen at the airport and then Dusty Farlow intervened and got him back, that was the best stare of JR. Of course, this one here ranks high. Mojo ought to have a top ten of JR's stares.

That's for sure!!!!! Nobody can ever replace him...was spot on!
DALLAS FOR EVER!!! THE BEST ... of all Soaps.... Period!!
George Petrie, who played Harv, was great in this scene! It is just him talking for 5 minutes straight but it is still moving and interesting, Very underrated actor.
he was on the honeymooners
Another underrated one was Dennis Patrick, who played Vaughn Leland.
He had a great voice.
So do I. I love the legendary actor George O'Petrie known as the Family Attorney Harv Smithfield on Dallas on CBS.
I agree completely! He was a good actor and he did a great job in this scene!
Bobby Ewing Another Great Character as well,Ray,Lucy,Pam,Sue Ellen,Garry as well
Thankyou for sharing your life experiences.

Bobby's death was so unexpected. It was like something out of a dream... NO WAIT.
Good morning...
@@Milordvega at the time , I remember getting emotional, at the hospital scene when Jr was begging Bobbie not to leave him. With tears in his eyes
Patrick Duffy decided to leave the show. Bobby's death wasn't originally supposed to be a dream.
Nobody could end a show like Dallas. Such dramatic endings.
I love it when Bobby comes back the following year due to the Dream sequence❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
J.R.'s turn & stare at Pam at the end is Epically Priceless!
Whoever was the actor for Harv, he was excellent.
George Petrie He also played the role of Fred Haskell the father of Eddie Haskell on Leave it to Beaver
@@sfgnyy He also appeared on the Honeymooners.
What a great show Dallas was.
Always loved scenes like this... you got to know what the characters meant to each other... and that great music.
i still today keep dallas as the best series ever. it has everything. that's all.
This scene shows what a great actress Barbara Bel Geddes was. She acted in this without even saying a word with such expression!
I agree.. All the emotions a human being has... All the expressions that come with them.. She does it so naturally.. Its extraordinary..
she was a terrible actress, from an era where every actor overacted, overemphasized, and just looked like an idiot
omg...this is just a movie..she didn't say a word because it was the script :DDDD
yes she was!! and joan van ark (valene) on knots landing could do the same-both superb actresses!
She was in Johnny Belinda, 40s flick
Good Lord, Victoria Principal is spectacular to behold! What a gorgeous woman.
The writing the theme of this scene was and will always be Epic and Timeless!
This is the season that was all a dream! What a kick in the nuts to the fans.
Pam and JR are looking at each other and saying to themselves after learning that Pam is holding Christopher's shares in Ewing Oil "You have got to be kidding me!"

Brad Osbourne it’s like she acknowledged Bobby loved him and he wasn’t always so evil.

He was busy living life in Knot's Landing. ☺️
Harvey Smithfield character, what a brilliant actor who played him, throughout the Dallas series .
That was a hell of a long dream!
I kinda feel like the entire “Dream” season was the easiest way for the writers to explain why Patrick Duffy decides to come back to the show
Patrick's wife's idea
Shittiest way..... he should have been in a coma..... ready to revive if he wanted to return.
@@CaptainSpalding72 yes they could have done that but the way they did is fine

bette1908: JR had no love for Gary or Ray really. They were just in the way too him. The only brother he loved was Bobby.
Let's face it they where two losers
This is the season Dallas should have ended.
If they had just left him dead! Or better, not kill him, just put him in coma and revive him, or not, if he didn't want t return.
JR could give a look that could melt cold steel!
I just do not believe that Pam would dream about Ray and Donna's personal life. So, in the next season Ray and Donna should have stayed married with their adopted hearing impaired son, Tony. I did not mind that Patrick wanted to come back to the show. But does that mean since Bobby is back, should Ray and Donna should still lead separate lives, and then divorce, no of course not. Just because Bobby is back does not give the writers' the right to divorce Ray and Donna. As season progressed the viewers see less and less of Donna at South Fork.
JR and Pam, my favorite characters in Dallas !
this was the season that was a dream it didnt happen
No, Gary already got a Inheritance from Jock's Will although he got "Less" than JR & Bobby but got "More" than Ray. The reason why Bobby left Gary a Horse was because out of all of The Ewing Sons, Gary was the one who had the most love of the Land and was good with Horses, Gary also had a closer bond with Bobby than he ever did with JR. Also, in Miss Ellie's Eyes, Gary had more characteristics of a Southworth than a Ewing which Jock wasn't impressed by.
Yes but The House in Los Angeles was courtesy of Miss Ellie as a Wedding Present since Gary had no credit or colllateral
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s television! I wish Dallas could have lasted forever! Bobby Ewing was soooooo hot! And Pam was perfect, in every way that women care about! She was smart, beautiful, loyal, and most of all, Independent! There was nothing that J.R. Ewing didn't know about the oil business, and that made him hot as well!!!!! Damn, I miss the original series!!!
Thanks for the Upload 👍 !! XD Too bad this was ALL part of the "Lost" season !! XD
This is the far the most underrated season of the show. Without Bobby everyone focused on his loss and never gave credit ( or even a hoot) to the shenanigans of this season. True they had to erase it to bring Bobby back, but that was because the head honchos hadn’t the time to create another good storyline to bring Bobby back in another realistic way. They had only a few months to do it.
True it had other issues like the glitter and glamour which hadn’t been made for Dallas, but it wasn’t that bad overall. Those glitches still could of been fixed had the seasons end continued.
The Parthian arrow that pierced JR's heart. 😅😅😅
Gary didn’t “make his fortune” out in California. Jock left him $10 million. Gary was working at a used car dealership before that.
He had lotus point, and empire valley.
Plus ten percent of Ewing oil
Then he lost it all and had to move back to Val’s house in the cul de sac
@@TheMaggiesDad true, he wasn’t business savvy like his brothers. Lol
Best season
Iubesc DALLAS cu actori cu tot
Can someone clarify if I'm wrong? I am sure I once read where the writers had thoughts of killing off the character of Bobby soon after the series started in order to create the intense hatred between the Ewing’s and Barnes. Obviously the Ewing’s/Barnes feud was already there however having that Barnes woman living at Southfork would just intensify the story.
The look JR gave Pam after what Harv Smithfield said, wow.
When Jr heard Bobby left his shares of Ewing oil to Christopher giving Pam control she knew he would come sniffing at her door
And sniff other things too.
@@marka.graffakasnakebitenat3736Agree I always believe JR wanted to get Pamela in bed but she wasn’t having it
Later in this season JR is no where near as nasty as he had been to the pont of not at all. Making peace with Sue Ellen treating her right, not cheating her, just about making peace with Cliff , Jamie and Pam, been ok with Clayton, Ray & Donna. He even as the show was coming to a close was starting to become a life saving anti hero especially in his partnering along and being friendly with Dack Rambo. This season wasn't so bad.
It really was the best
Pamela had some pretty wild dreams !!
@redletter2008 Yeah, you're so right. Thanks for reminding me. When "Jenna #1" then played by Morgan Fairchild came along, I initually hated her. Pam was trying so hard to be "accepted" by the Family and now this "Woman" came back into Bobby's life. Also, I had my reservations about Priscilla Presley playing Jenna #3 after Francine Tacker (The Paper Chase TV Series). You were right about her working hard as a Single Mother.
Beyond that evilness in his soul, JR had a heart!
Every time I hear that crap....I want to puke.
It was all just a dream!
Haha the look on JR'S s face. And Bobby knew JR hates Pam!!!! LOL
What a will!
What did Gary received?
I love his message to Pam “A wish to be happy and a certainty that you will. Remember the good times and that there are many more to come.” He knew she was a survivor in life.
JR Best Character.well suited.
