Still my favorite tv show today. Probably the only prime time drama I’ve ever watched. Southfork’s interiors on the show for the first season were filmed at Bruce Calder’s residence in Turtle Creek. The 1996 reunion movie, ‘JR Returns’ used his residence again for Southfork’s interiors. When production moved to a soundstage at MGM by the second season, the studio recreated a replica of Mr Calder’s residence, which became Southfork’s permanent interiors(downstairs only)until the show’s final season.

It really made the city a truly international city and today you meet their descendants- people with, for example, Indian names with a thick Texas drawl. It was such a transformative time.

I’ve always felt that this house is understated and not a good choice to represent the Ewing family. The Cloyce Box mansion in Frisco was the original exterior for Southfork. It was only used for the original five episode mini series. When Dallas was renewed for its first complete season in 1979, Mr. Box declined the request to continue the use of his house for the exterior shots of Southfork. Thus the producers chose this house, originally known as Duncan Acres for the twelve year run of the show. The Box mansion was a much grander and picturesque home, more suitable to be the house of the oil magnate family. Tragically, the Box mansion was destroyed by fire in 1987. It was accidentally set ablaze by workers during renovations.

Yes, after the 5 episode miniseries was such a hit in April of 1978, CBS ordered 13 episodes for the 1978-79 season. The owner of the original ranch said no, as it was too disruptive to his ranching business. Agree too, the original house was much more of house Jock would have built.

A real ranch but not a working one. I'm not sure what you mean, but I'm reminded that in The Netherlands there is a museum called the Open Air Museum where the exhibits show how farming was and is in the country. Many (not all) exhibits are real and living. The vegetables grown and cheese produced are sold at markets which supplements the income of the museum.

I wonder how many people are disappointed when they go to Southfork and realize that the exterior is not the same. I didn’t know for the longest time. It was kind of a bummer when I first found out. Actually, for me personally, I love the inside of the house that was used on the show. The real house seems to gaudy for me. Pretty cool though that that the outside shots were the same. But sadly after several years, the show did fewer and fewer on location scenes at the real Southfork and around Dallas, and ultimately all the show was filmed on soundstages.

Pamela, Elaina (or whatever she was called), Judith - to name 3 actresses who were new to the reboot who had radically different looks? I think the reboot failed because it had no clear direction. Should have been braver with season 3. I know JR was gone but watching some of the classic Knots, you had Abby, Greg as scheming villains aswell as various guest villains and it didn't seem crowded. So it can be done. But Dallas reboot season 3 had Elaina plotting, John Ross, Judith, Harris, Cliff, the various South Americans etc - sooooo many villains and so unfocused. 2 or 3 villains could have driven the show and given drama and direction for the other characters. Instead,it was a jumble of convulted silliness with no character grounded. Such a missed opportunity.
