Meet the Ewings of Dallas 2012
Here is a quick guide to the cast and characters of the Dallas pilot on TNT.
(Click image for larger version)
From left to right:
ANN RYLAND EWING (played by Brenda Strong) – A pure blue-blooded Texan but you wouldn’t guess it. She may know champagne and caviar, but talks hog and hominy. Carelessly elegant,optimistic, good-humored, Ann’s got eyes in the back of her head and is game for anything.
BOBBY JAMES EWING (played by Patrick Duffy) – His hair a little grayer, his face etched with character, Bobby’s still the same dynamic, compassionate man who always insisted on playing fair.
CHRISTOPHER EWING (played by Jesse Metcalfe) – The new acumen and entrepreneurial vigor of the Ewing clan. Smart, attractive, effective, he has the guarded eyes of someone who’s already mixed it up with life.
REBECCA SUTTER (played by Julie Gonzalo) - A beautiful, spontaneous young woman, Rebecca seduces those around with her direct manner. Fiancée of Christoher Ewing.
JR Ewing (played by Larry Hagman) - Life has not been kind to the former Oil tycoon.
ELENA RAMOS (played by Jordana Brewster) – A proud, beautiful woman with a whirring Swiss timepiece for a mind, less assured. Currently in a relationship with John Ross and has a long history with the Ewing family.
JOHN ROSS EWING (played by Josh Henderson) – A powerful man, he is charismatic, seductive; you have to be careful not to fall in love with him, because you already sense that he’s his father’s son: ambitious, burning with a need to be noticed.
SUE ELLEN EWING (played by Linda Gray ) - Many-years-clean-and-sober, finally seems at peace with the gracious Southern belle she was raised to be — before life with J.R. coldcocked her. She looks fantastic.
Let battle commence…………….
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
I am so thrilled to have this great program back in my life! I just read on the TV Guide website that Charlene Tilton and Steve Kanaly will reprise their roles. Very exciting indeed!! Oh wow, in a perfect world… Victoria would come back as Pam. No offense of course to the new Mrs. Bobby Ewing. It certainly would make a great story!
Oh I am so glad that Dallas is coming back soon,because the original was so good and entertaining.I realy enjoyed watching it and I hope the new one will be as good
i am so giddy can not wait
The new cast look terrific, I just wish Ken Kercheval could come back along with Audrey Landers!
Even so, the original Dallas along with the BBC’s Doctor Who were the two show’s I grew up with and later came to love! I always wondered after Doctor Who’s comeback in 2005 if it was possible for Dallas to do the same!
Looking forward to it’s return very much! I love this show so much!
