TNT has given the greenlight to DALLAS, an all-new series based upon one of the most popular television dramas of all time, about the bitter rivalries and family power struggles within a Texas oil and cattle-ranching dynasty. Famous for its ratings-grabbing cliffhangers, the original series was known for its wealth, seduction, scandal and intrigues. Set in the big state of Texas, TNT's new DALLAS — from Warner Horizon Television — also lives life large and in the fast lane and brings a new generation of stars together with cast members from the original drama series. The new DALLAS stars Josh Henderson (90210), Jesse Metcalfe (John Tucker Must Die), Jordana Brewster (Fast & Furious), Julie Gonzalo (Veronica Mars) and Brenda Strong (Desperate Housewives), and they will be joined by iconic stars Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray and Larry Hagman as J.R. Ewing. TNT has ordered 10 episodes of DALLAS, which is slated to premiere in summer 2012.

I’ll bet whoever owns Southfork is happy. I think it was turned into a conference center.

The is the first look trailer for it, looks good actually, Sue Ellen is back and looking mighty fine.
Hey, before Dallas and Falcon Crest came on it was The Dukes of Hazzard at 8:00. I was a kid and we usually had Pizza and Pepsi Fridays at 8:00!
I really loved Dallas. The writing was superb, the actors were wonderful and I loved looking at the set designs.
Does Linda Gray have a painting up in the attic of herself? !!!
I’m glad it’s coming back.
“I’ll bet whoever owns Southfork is happy. I think it was turned into a conference center.”
I’ve met the owner of Southfork. He lives out here in Phx and owns a company that makes products from Aloe vera. He bought Southfork in the 80s for cash! His home out here is fantastic.
He still owns it as far as I know, which means he’s going to be making a good bit off this;)
