On Wednesday, June 13th Southfork is open for business again on TNT with a new version of Dallas that is as amazing as the original. Did you miss out on the nighttime soap when it was originally or forgot about some of the key points, then the cast of the new version, who were also part of the past, catch you up what happened then and bring you into the present. Larry Hagman, Linda Gray and Patrick Duffy explain their tumultuous from the ’70s, ’80s and ’90 and how two decades hasn’t changed anything about how they feel about each other. This is a little teaser for the best new show of the season that is debuting at the end of it. So make sure tune in this Wednesday at 9p for a show that will be as big as everything else from Dallas, and you know everything is bigger there than anyone else.
Jennifer Finnigan Tweeted the above picture and said, “Not sure what my new name is, but this may be my new look…” The Close to Home actress has had long blonde hair ever since we got to know her on The Bold and the Beautiful, but I think she should change it up because she looks Better with that new hairstyle. Not that Mrs Jonathan Silverman didn’t look good before, she just looks even better.
Now we just have to convince her boss David E Kelley and TNT let her do it for their new show Monday Mornings.
On June 13th, Dallas will make its debut on TNT and I think the drama is the best the show of the season. Now I know I have said that before about other shows this season that started to lose their momentum after the pilot screeners that us critics reviewed. But unlike those other shows, I have seen seven episodes of Dallas and I can tell you it gets better and juicier with each episode.
Unlike 90210 and Knight Rider, Dallas includes the original cast and uses them the way they should be utilized in the sequel. Seriously JR is just as bad as he was when he was shot and that is a very good thing. But the show isn’t only about JR and Bobby Ewing, it is about the next generation of Ewings and they are just like their fathers. Also like the original Dallas, this nighttime Soap is very easy on the eyes.
Even though it has been 30 years since the original Dallas aired, the story is the same. Family rivalries, oil, love, money and did I mention oil. It is everything you can hope for from a show that is resurrected on television and more. So make sure to set you DVRs to record Dallas on June 13th because you don’t miss a single second of the best new show of the season. Seriously it is the first time a sequel is as good as the original.
Back in the ’80s people feel in love with nerds thanks to movie franchise Revenge of the Nerds and now two of them are getting their own show on TBS. Curtis Armstrong and David Carradie aka Booger and Lewis will be hosting King of the Nerds. TBS described the show as “television’s ultimate nerd-off. The show invites competitors spanning the full nerd spectrum to come together to face challenges that will test their intellect, ingenuity, skills and pop-culture prowess. The nerds will first compete as teams before moving on to individual challenges, all with the goal of being named the quintessential master of all things nerdy.”
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to watch the show when it debuts on TBS later this year. Especially because I might know a few of the nerds competing on it.
Dallas 2.0 is still around six months from debuting on TNT, but that isn’t stopping the network for teasing us with a second trailer. With the loss of Desperate Housewives, it looks we got a new nighttime soap to watch. Now let’s hope it will be as good as the show that aired 30 years ago.
