Very cool guys, and nice work covering all of these locations!

These vids are a lot of fun. I just started binging the Dallas show on Feverree (I am on S9 so seeing S8 locations was really cool) but watched it growing up with my Mom too. She was a huge fan. Good memories. Thanks for doing these.

[@Our80sLife]

That's great, thanks Jarrod! We're glad you're enjoying our video series. Dallas is the best show, and it's so nostalgic watching it now. Cheers!

@@Our80sLife Hello 😇

[@PokerJones]

Thanks a lot! Looking forward seeing these from all the remaining seasons! I also wonder did you had to ask some information from someone or did you just deduced yourself all these locations?

[@Our80sLife]

That's so nice, THANK YOU!! We are excited for the upcoming seasons too! I'm originally from Dallas, so many of the locations I recognized from living there my entire life (until we relocated to Kansas in '04.) For example, my senior prom was held at the Doubletree in Campbell Centre! For the ones we didn't recognize, we've definitely gotten some help. I'm in a Facebook group for people from Dallas called Dallas Memories, and occasionally I've shared screenshots on there to get some help - that's how we found the disco club from season 1. There's also a Dallas Filming Locations thread on a website called tellytalk.net which was a wealth of information. That one includes places both in Dallas and California (which we're planning to visit next year!) It's so exciting to stand in the exact locations where these iconic scenes were filmed from our favorite TV show!

I've stayed at that Double Tree a few times, never knew it was in the show!

[@Our80sLife]

Yes!! I realized recently that my senior prom was held there, lol! Of course I had no clue about the Dallas connection at the time... too busy dancing the night away!

[@bluebonnet1014]

Thank you!!

[@Tom-rd9qp]

Another excellent vlog on filming locations! All of your videos are great! I read last week there are rumors about Southfork closing with the passing last summer of the owner. I can’t imagine that SF would close. Every time I’ve visited there are a good number of people on the tour. Plus the venue has to be a great for events and weddings. I hope SF is saved!

[@Our80sLife]

Thanks Tom! We've heard those rumors as well, and it would be awful if Southfork closed (or worse, got torn down!) There's a petition going around, which we've signed, and we certainly hope it can be saved. We LOVE Southfork!!

[@hoagie1978]

Thanks for the video. Dallas is one of my favorite shows of all time. The re-enactments are hilarious. Pam's house looks very different now with the remodel. One series I think you all may enjoy later when you have the time is Family with Kristy McNichol and Meredith Baxter. David Jacobs the creator of Dallas and Knots Landing was a head writer for that show and he was approached by CBS from his work on that series. Dallas was born. Aaron Spelling produced Family with Mike Nichols.

[@Our80sLife]

Cool, thanks so much! We're happy to know you're enjoying our videos! The re-enactments are ridiculous but fun, lol! Yes, Pam's house looks quite different now, but once we saw those circular porthole windows and the circle drive, we knew we were in the right place. You can look up the address on Zillow - there are interior pics! Thanks for the show suggestion as well.

[@melaniexoxo]

Thanks!

[@boverhof3]

Man, You guys really know your "Dallas". How many times have you watched that series?

[@Our80sLife]

Thanks Brian! We only just started watching it in 2020 as a quarantine pastime, and we were instantly hooked! We typically watch each episode twice through to prepare for our trips to Dallas when we're filming these videos... that and LOTS of research! Thank goodness for Google Maps!!

[@boverhof3]

@@Our80sLife I remember watching Dallas as a child with mother back in the day. And I remember little about it. We had a Dallas Card Game that came out at the time that I remember we enjoyed playing.

[@2008SUPERDUTYF350]

Are you doing videos on seasons 9-13?

[@Our80sLife]

@@2008SUPERDUTYF350 Yes, we plan to do Dallas filming location videos through season 12, but unfortunately they filmed entirely in California for the final two seasons (as far as we can tell.)

[@billymorgan7717]

Great information on the various Dallas filming locations. Sadly, unfortunately, I recently learned that the future of SouthFork Ranch is questionable. The ranch could be turned into a subdivision. 😭

[@Our80sLife]

Thanks Billy! We've heard that about Southfork as well, and we'd be heartbroken if it closed (or worse!) We love visiting there! There's a petition floating around which we've signed, and we're hoping for the best. Glad you enjoyed our video!

[@daytime70s]

Regarding the season finale driveway incident: Was it unusual for them to go back to Dallas to film on location, that late in the Season? Normally, all the actual Dallas location scenes are filmed early and air during the first half of a season? But, for the finale, they flew Pam, Bobby, and Katherine back to Dallas to do those car sequences, I guess.

[@Our80sLife]

You're correct, and that was unusual. The only other time when I can recall that happening is in Season 6, the scene where Holly Harwood set up Sue Ellen, and she walked-in on her with J.R. (episode 25 "Tangled Web.") It appears to have been filmed at the same Highland Park neighborhood that was used earlier in the season, but they must've gone back to film it later.

[@phlashback]

Forgive me if it’s been said in the comments, but I noticed in season 7 that they used the Calder House as Mark’s house and you’ll notice as he was taking Pam up the steps, they used the interiors. I was thinking “oh no, Mark is taking her to Bobby’s room! 😱” …but then I realized it was actually Mark’s staircase, not the Southfork staircase. They obviously look identical, save for the wallpaper being different. I sometimes forget that they replicated the Calder House interiors on a soundstage lol.

[@jasonlewis6928]

What was the glass building that had a stair step design in the opening credits that was by reunion tower is it gone now?

[@Our80sLife]

That's the Hyatt Regency Hotel, and it's still there. We visited that location in our season 2 video - here's a link if you want to see how it looks inside: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2epoYZmo51mqqMsi=sCoW34ov6v92mja4&t=38

[@Mark.Watson]

This is really interesting. Did you watch the show when it originally aired or become a fan later on?

[@Our80sLife]

We were very young when Dallas first hit the airwaves. We only became fans when we started binge-watching it during the quarantine time... totally hooked!

[@Haleighmaineee]

Do you guys have a PO Box? Found some super cool 80s items I think you’d like!

[@jonathanmyers2867]

1980: Who shot J.R.? 1984: Who shot Bobby?

A cold front hit Dallas overnight, so half of our clips we have on short-sleeves and the other half we're wearing coats. This was our first stop that day, and we were struggling but we couldn't stop laughing so we had to keep re-shooting the re-enactment. Oh the things we do for KZbin, HA HA!!

[@daytime70s]

In early Season 6, when Rebecca buys the Westlake Ave. House, the script called for it to be on.....Antioch Drive. Also, Cardinal Puff's seemed to change from S6 1982 to S8 1984? They had more umbrella tables, and plants when Sue Ellen and Afton lunched there in 1982. Maybe Pam and Jeremy, sat in a different section? It doesn't look like there are any umbrella tables now in 2022, and of course the name change.
