TNT has released a new extended trailer for its updated Dallas series, which premieres next summer and continues the exploits of the Ewing family of Southfork, the oil dynasty first made famous in the classic primetime soap of the 1980s. In addition to scenes from the new series, the trailer includes some thoughts from cast members (including returning favorites like Larry Hagman and Patrick Duffy). It’s also nice to see, at least for the purposes of the trailer, that some of the original series’ classic title theme music has been retained.

Well, she’s often played “tough chick” roles in movies like Terminator Salvation that match her ridiculously badass name. But the makers of Falling Skies, TNT’s epic new alien-invasion saga that debuts Sunday, went a different way, casting Wyle as Tom Mason, a […]

TNT’s “Dallas” update is hotter than a Texas summer!
It is late in the afternoon on the final day of the two-week schmooze-a-palooza that is the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour. Half of the assembled critics are nursing a nagging cold that has spread through the frigid, windowless conference rooms; no one has had enough sleep. And everyone — even those of us who would watch way too much TV even if we weren’t paid to do so — has had just about enough of talking about television. Then onto the stage walks Larry Hagman in a dashing white cowboy hat, followed by Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray and […]
