Goofs
The Southfork housekeeper/cook Carmen Ramos (Elena's mother) claims she has been working there since Christopher was 5 years old. This would be around 1986. However she was not present in the original series and that position was filled from 1982-91 by Theresa (Roseanna Christiansen).

Quotes
J.R. Ewing: [holding a file on Veronica Martinez aka Marta del Sol] Well, I'd say when it comes to jealousy, our girl is crazier than an outhouse rat.
[smiles]
Bum: Man, I hope I'm never on the wrong end of that smile, J.R.

Cheeseburger in Paradise

Surfing through the channels from my cable TV offerings, I've seen truckers drive on ice, pawn shop owners swindle deals from desperate gamblers, Alaskan state troopers busting reckless outlaws, and Kardashians acting more and more like the entitled idiots we all know them to be... but all that "reality" doesn't come close to the the emotional charge I get from watching Dallas 2012. Reality shows---sit back and let us show you how REAL entertainment is done. Texas Style. Be sure, JR (Larry Hagman) , Sue Ellen (Linda Grey),Bobby (Patrick Duffy) and Cliff Barnes (Ken Kershavel) while being a bit long in the tooth are still as compelling as ever. And I'm sure we too, the audience, who fell in love with the show the fist time around are no spring chickens. But the young pups, John Ross (Josh Henderson) and Christopher (Jesse Metcaffe) do a great job of drawing in the 30 something demographic with their good looks and a dramatic flair to convincingly attract the obligatory female eye candy. Plot? Something about Bobby selling South Fork from under JR. Who cares? Watching JR dissing his old nemesis Cliff Barnes with those classic Texas put downs ("why Cliff Barnes has more holes in his gibberish than a Mosquito net") It's oil. It's greed. It's Blackmail. It's double crossing. My God, TV is fun again. And wait, is there a better opening TV theme than Dallas? Good call to bring that back,
