"Dallas" is the saga of the Ewing family and its massive oil empire. Patriarch Jock has three sons. The eldest is J.R., the relentless CEO of Ewing Oil. Less obviously malicious are Bobby and Gary. Over a decade-plus of backstabbing, inbreeding, lust and greed, dozens of characters enter and exit the "Dallas" universe.

2.5/5
The only other real problem with this series from such a late date is that by straddling decades into the 90s, we lose a bit of the 80s kitsch that made the earlier seasons so much fun to watch. Go to Full Review Ross Ruediger Bullz-Eye.com Mar 4, 2019
3/5
With Season Thirteen, the powers that be managed to create one of the very best seasons of the latter half of the series, although it goes without saying that you can't please all the people all of the time. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
