The world's first mega-soap, and one of the most popular ever produced, Dallas had it all. Beautiful women, expensive cars, and men playing Monopoly with real buildings. Famous for one of the best cliffhangers in TV history, as the world asked "Who shot J.R.?" A slow-burner to begin with, Dallas hit its stride in the 2nd season, with long storylines and expert character development. Dallas ruled the airwaves in the 1980's.
Dallas runs on scheming, power plays and family feuds, told with plenty of gloss and even more venom. It favors long story arcs and episodes that almost always end on a hook, so you keep watching. At its center is a ruthless oil baron you dislike and enjoy watching in equal measure.
Good for you if you like family sagas full of power struggles, jealousy and grand gestures.
