APPLE: apple.co/3BN0z7j
SPOTIFY: spoti.fi/3yepEpG
Charlene Tilton steps Behind The Rope. Yes, little Lucy Ewing all grown up. Charlene is here to chat about the full anthology of her career and what it was like being part of one of the most Iconic shows of all time, Dallas. Charlene reminisces about being cast, the early days on set with co-stars such as Larry Hagman, Linda Gray, Patrick Duffy, and Victoria Principal - to name a few, the highs and lows of Lucy Ewing, best and worst storylines for the character, and how life changed as a result of Dallas. Charlene discusses leaving the show after eight seasons, returning several years later, life after Dallas and the positives and negatives of playing one character for so long. Charlene also opens up about her life long friendship with “Uncle” Larry Hagman who was like a real life father to her, his passing, and life after Larry. We discuss the TNT “Dallas Reboot” that ended way too soon a few years ago. Finally, we chat about the future of the Dallas legacy, whether another Reboot is looming on the Horizon and what actresses could play Lucy Ewing is the show were ever recast many years from today. Thank you Charlene. What a fun trip down memory lane regarding one of the best and most iconic TV shows to ever exist!

He is so disappointed Charlene refuses to gossip. Good for you Charlene!!

@@sunnystormy4973 Sunny, these Hollywood interviewers are hired to get the celebrity to dish negative stuff because that is what sells. His channel has interviewed most old Dallas cast members, tried the exact same thing and they each refuted the narrative he tried to push about Victoria Principal. Charlene knew what he was trying to do and she was classy and professional.

In my Household, we never, ever missed an episode of Dallas. It was so damn good. I loved Charlene. She really played the part well. LOVED the really early scenes with Charlene Tilton and Victoria Principal. They were wonderful.

[@behindthevelvetrope]

Same to EVERY thing u said. Yes yes and yes to all of it

[@scottgarbo1288]

Victoria Principal is a very smart, strong, confident woman, which I'm sure did not go over well back in the 80s. I have always admired her determination to do things her way. She also was a former agent, so knew the best type of contract to negotiate, allowing her to do commercials and other 'outside' ventures. As she said, "no one owns me." She's an amazing woman.

[@behindthevelvetrope]

Yes

[@anthonyaustin3370]

I met Larry Hagman in the 1990’s and asked him this very thing because I always liked Victoria and couldn’t understand all the nasty things that were said about her. He told me that Victoria was very conscientious about her work and in the beginning because she didn’t have the same level of experience as most of the cast, she kept to herself in her dressing room learning her lines and trying to dig deeper into the character. And because she was playing the outsider in the family being isolated from rest of the cast helped her play that onscreen. He said that she was a very smart woman and completely professional.

I was amazed she stayed on Dallas , because her parents were on the Spin-off show knots landing. Why would leave daughter in Dallas ,while parents are in California. That's the characters in the show I'm talking about.

[@behindthevelvetrope]

Good points

[@JazzyJan15]

Charlene hardly had any screen time with her sister in laws on the show. Her parts were more about her doing her own thing with outsiders, and then afterwards the brief reactions of her family.

[@behindthevelvetrope]

yes

[@sallyquinn9851]

I remember that scene where Sue Ellen fell down the stairs and landed at Lucy’s feet. Charlene played it so well, I thought she was actually on drugs!

Particularly close to Jim Davis, as he thought there was a very close physical resemblance between her and his (deceased) daughter. Related to this, I thought I heard that Victoria decided not to stay too much longer after the year that Davis passed away

Principal was not a jerk on set. The entire cast actually liked each other..if this pansy was a fan, he would know. Victoria was closest to Jim Davis who played Jock. He said Victoria looked like his dead daughter, TAMARA. JIM was buried with a picture of his daughter and Victoria.
