The Unknown Poster Posted February 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Have they tried to revive Miami Vice yet? The Dallas revival was actually pretty good. A bit too night time soap operaish but you could tell the show runners loved the original. It lost something when Hagman died and they had to write out JR. He was tremendous in that series, even at his age. Loved his line "Blood is thicker than water. But oil is thicker than both." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was tremendous in that series, even at his age. Loved his line "Blood is thicker than water. But oil is thicker than both." I watched that first season with Hagman but when he died I wasn't interested anymore. As soon as Hagman died that series was finished. He carried that show as the supporting new characters were weak in comparison to the original series. Patrick Duffy wasn't able to carry the new showon his own the way Hagman did. He didn't have the same presence on screen & his character Bobby was a nice guy. In the original series, he balanced off JR's ruthlessness & lack of morality. Without JR, Bobby was just a weak Goody Two Shoes. Victoria Principal wasn't part of the new shoe & neither was Steve Kanaly who played Ray Krebbs on the original show. He was the half brother of Bobby & JR & he was looked down upon by JR who never considered him an equal or entitled to any of the estate of their father. Leaving Kanaly & Principal out were mistakes. To me, the new series was okay but not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, the new series was okay but not great. Kanaly was in the revived series. I think pretty much everyone from the original made appearances. I liked that they didnt just focus on the "kids". Even casting Mitch Pileggi, Lee Majors, Judith Light etc. And while I hated John Ross at first, the actor really grew on me. And Emma Bell turned out to be a lot better than she seemed at first. They even had the Knots Landing cast appear. The storyline of JR arranging his own death seemed pretty goofy though. But it was funny in that it implicated Cliff, didnt it? lol Oh, JR!

I wonder if they would have revived Knots Landing as well had the Dallas revival gone further....nah if the Melrose Place semi revival didn't work I doubt that a Knots Landing revival would have gone far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted March 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 I love this series. Julia Garner is awesome. And Jason Bateman is great in everything. Also, HBO is developing a series based on the video game The Last of Us (Highly acclaimed but I am an Xbox guy so Ive never played it). Developed by the guy behind Chernobyl.

Such a pitiful output for their immense talent, mostly caused by their failure to find consensus on almost any projects for decades, now it's too late.
