Great legs! I bet it's a good read (I wonder what she has to say about Models Inc. - barf)
On another note, I watched an old Family Feud special with Dallas vs Eight is Enough on YouTube. Quite funny.

I'm looking forward to hearing what you think about the book once you grab a copy Jim!

The Linda Gray book was okay, but I am glad I did not purchase it. The stories were somewhat scattered about, and not really a "story" of her life. She had a terrible marriage, and has played the field since her divorce, but she doesn't go into detail of boyfriends or escapades. She had had troubles with her kids, as they were growing up during the "Dallas" years, and she even missed her son's high school graduation. A lot of her writing was about her connections with odd cultures and experiences - traveling the world for cures for eye problems and other illnesses. There was also a lot of "empower women" discussion, but it seemed a bit over the top to me. I ended up skimming much of the book, except for the Dallas references. I think Linda Gray would be a better person to talk with than read about... but, I am glad I read it. ************* Apparently there was a Dallas cast reunion this past weekend in LA. Check out the photo!  A side note... I found this today: |

Never saw the intro apparently somebody made it! Nice opening credits reunion!!! Niece piece of work! I feel like watching the show all over again now! Maybe from the very beginning! I mean Jock years!!!
Thanks for the report about Linda's book Jim I thought it would be more about never said before Dallas facts or even about her carreer for instance when she went to France along with Larry & Patrick in the early 80's and met Sue Ellen's French voice on a TV show called Champs Elysees? Any word about that on her book Jim?

Any word about that on her book Jim? I don't recall that story, Nougi, but there was a funny story about her, Larry and Maj (Hagman, his wife) going to some tropical resort. Their accommodations were little huts in the water, and they were pretty isolated. They had been invited to a local feast/celebration (because even in the remote parts of the world people knew JR Ewing), and had to take an old beat-up car to arrive. The driver got them lost, and had an accident, so the Linda, Larry and Maj had to climb up a muddy hill to a house that had a light on in it. They arrived, and guess what - the family was watching "Dallas." There was a lot of screaming and disbelief, but everyone ended up (safely) at the feast. Because of Linda's poor home life during Dallas, Larry and Maj Hagman virtually adopted her. They took her to parties, let her stay with them and really encouraged her when no one else would. She and Larry definitely had a strong friendship. There are more "Dallas" stories mixed in as well, but the feast story was definitely fun. |

So there are three priviledged persons here! I also have the whole set of Dallas. And I'm still planning to watch the whole series once again from the very first episode. She's still the love of my (Dallas) life:  |

I don't know if I could dedicate myself to all the seasons... I'm just getting into S5 of "Friends" on Netflix, and it's taken awhile to get there. Thirteen seasons, one-hour episodes... that's a lot of oil, sex and money!

Wouldn't it have been nice to have had the box shaped like Southfork?
I mean, Die Hard had all the movies in a mockup of Nakatomi Plaza...have you seen it? It's ridiculously huge.
