Ok so Tonya Meredith's comment doesn't mention Gary now. That or she edited it & deleted it. Bottom line Linda Gray & Larry Hagman WERE VERY GOOD FRIENDS in real life. Source: Many interviews where both Linda Gray & Larry Hagman said this. Mentioned in many interviews, separate & together. 🎉 It's a great thing, as it made for stunning & dynamic acting between the two. Both Linda Gray & Larry Hagman also said they both felt a "soul connection" the first time they met, & therefore they both knew their characters as JR & Sue Ellen Ewing were going to serve each other very, very well. It's cool trivia & I LOVED Dallas!! I watched it every single Friday night as a pre-teen & teenager, growing up in Houston, TX. Also, my Dad was an Engineer & worked as a CEO at one of the largest oil producing companies in the world at the time. His company designed, built & implemented oil rigs everywhere from Texas to off-shore oil drilling in Singapore, Japan, China etc. Larry Hagman once said in an interview that there were some very rich families in the oil business in Texas that made the drama in the Dallas episodes look like cream puffs. And he was right LOL!! (Sidenote - My family wasn't rich like the Ewings. My Dad started off out of college as a rookie Engineer & worked his way up the ladder fast. Yes, we had about 6 years where my parents built their dream house & Dad co-owned a farm with horses, cows etc, , we went & did work in that farm every Saturday. Far back as I can remember from about age 4 to age 11. Hard work. Hearding cows, bailing hay, cleaning stalls, rode alit of horses). Then the oil crisis hit. My parents got divorced & had to declare Bankruptcy. Back to very middle class Square one for all of us but the "big oil" days were fun while they lasted LOL. I related to Dallas ALOT because I'd met very materialistic, snobbish oil tycoons like JR Ewing. Larry Hagman though, you couldn't help but hate him so much you loved him lol! And the women, all the glitter, glamor, big hair, flashy clothes & dripping super-shiny lipgloss. This show had it ALL. I remember the mania around "Who Shot JR?" The frenzy in Texas (& all over the world) was real. I can tell you there were some HUGE BIG BUCKS BETS going amongst the biggest oil tycoons in Texas as to who did it! When Kristin was revealed, there were alot of big-daddy-warbucks oil tycoons paying up some big lost bets LOL! GOOD TIMES THOSE WERE!! 🌟 💰 🏆
The way she said "He was my husband" it was like in that she forgot that they were divorced and that she using the word "was" like it just because he was dead not that they were divorced. Love Linda Gray.
Linda Gray as Sue Ellen deserved so many Emmy awards for her outstanding performances as Sue Ellen Ewing. She was a God on that show that took everything and still managed to survive with power and grace, somehow, someway, she made it through the very worst.
Linda Gray took a boozy bit side character, and made her immortal, right next to her TV husband JR. Together, they were Dallas. History has had its final say.
No matter how badly JR treated Sue Ellen, she could not resist him. There were several times in the series where she would raged and carry on and all he needed to do was force himself on her and after a short obligatory of resistance, she would reciprocate.
It took me a bit to get into the modern version in season 1 as times have changed, we think of the old Dallas and it zips around a bit fast. HOWEVER, this reboot show is WONDERFUL! The show did not disappoint. Many similarities to blending old with new. The music was good too like old Dallas had for the times. Sue Ellen & Bobby are put into more J.R. like situations and knowing why you accept it. Linda, Patrick, Cliff & Larry have not lost their touch. They're amazing as is the cast. Patrick had me balling with him as he read J.R.'s letter as did Linda. They are such good actors. Glad they had this opportunity to work together again and Larry had the chance to leave earth as J.R., his favorite role, and Ken passing a few years after playing Cliff again. Bravo!❤
Is it just me that gets the feeling that the eyebrows line was a nod to Linda trying to tweezer Larry’s for years 😂 the warmth just shines through the screen. Beautiful 💓
This reboot was so good. It should have gone on for at least two more seasons. The younger cast was great, and the writers did a great job of making sure the classic characters weren't just furniture. It was a perfect mix of the old and the new, and the story lines were great. Such a shame the ratings dipped after JR died.
People on this thread who are denying that JR and Sue Ellen loved each other deeply have completely MISSED the point of one of the most integral and important relationships on the show - if not THE most important. I find that really really sad. These two had chemistry like no other - and at the very end of Dallas TNT, both admitted their deep love for each other and that each other was the love of one another's lives. It is also hinted at MANY times during the original. I feel deeply sorry for anyone who missed that.
Theres no doubt JR loved Sue Ellen. But he did love her in his own way, due to the fact he could never help himself with cheating and his other scandals. But in his later years he certainly realised she was the only one he truly loved, as well as John Ross and his father, Jock.
It was his Daddy & Momma, Oil, John Ross then Sue Ellen and J.R. told Sue Ellen he would never change having mistresses numerous times. Why she drank as she was in a predicament. No one could have her as J.R. wouldn't allow it. He did something to every man Sue Ellen loved or who loved Sue Ellen. Nicholas & Sue Ellen was hot.
Sue Ellen got back at JR, when she made a motion picture film about their lives together. Behind JR's back. I thought that was very clever of Sue Ellen to do something like that.
You see scenes like this from Dallas version 2 and you think to yourself "this was great tv, how did this show fail?" Then you watch Jordana Brewster and the drug cartels and Mexico stuff and think "oh yeah".
The drug cartel and the Mexico stuff was just a cheap ploy to bring "diversity" into the show when for years, practically the only minority character was Teresa the maid. This is what happens when you were more concerned about representation than actually writing a compelling storyline.
@@PungiFungi True. Of course, she was also trying to rip off Breaking Bad, which was hugely popular at the time. It ended only a year before the new Dallas did.
I have the flash player. I've watched countless videos but occasionally as in this one, I get a message saying that I need the adobe flash player to view it. I click on the link to install and it says I already have the player. Anybody know why this is?
Why was Sue Ellen saying JR was her husband? By this stage they had been divorced over 20 years. Both she and JR had remarried and divorced other people by this stage. She divorced Don't Lockwood and Cally divorced JR.
Because in her heart, he was always her husband. Just as she was always his wife. Watch the show. To the very end. Who they married in between is totally irrelevant.
No matter what. In her heart. That was still the guy she's fell in love with. The one she married. The one who took his last name. Didn't matter how many years past after their marriage ended. When you love someone like she loved J.R. , they always see them as their love. They were soulmates.
I didn't remember much of the old Dallas because I was a child. But I've been watching reruns and I'm deeply disappointed in all the fans that killed a great story line in season 10. The writers were going to bring back Jock Ewing using his cover identity of Wes Parmalee and the fact that after nearly burning alive from the helicopter crash he had to have extensive plastic surgery. But the 80s into 90s Dallas Fans were short sighted and caused that not to happen. Clayton Farlow was ok, But he was no No Jock Ewing. It wouldn't have been disrespectful of Jim Davis to recast the Jock Ewing character. The fans were selfish and unreasonable. I would have rather had Jock Ewing return with a new face and Clayton Farlow to be a bigger man and back away and been friends with Ellie and Jock. But Short sighted fans got in the way. JR and Bobby needed Jock to keep them in line. Short sighted fans killed a perfect storyline. Had Jock been back JR wouldn't have treated Callie his wife after Sue Ellen divorced him so badly.
The continuation failed because it was no longer a soap opera, it was steered toward being a crime drama & there are more than enough of them! This show became Dallas in name only by season 3! It was an insult to the original Dallas by then! :-(
Via_The_Void I've been after a comment like this thank you. I'm on the original Dallas now so I'm undecided on whether or not to get the reboot because I love the original so much. I know you left this comment 4 years ago but without seeing the reboot in full only clips I tend to agree. Original Dallas forever.
It was a bit fake of Sue Ellen saying JR was her 'Husband'. He wasn't. They were divorced over 20 years. If she had said that despite how much she hated him, he was the love of her life. Well that would have been realistic as they did have a love/hate relationship. Sue Ellen was JR's first real love despite him calling her a drunk, a tramp and an unfit mother and she adored him despite him being "That bastard" which she called him on a regular basis. In the later years all he got was 'You bastard'. Which was usually a name JR had for Ray because he actually is one.Then again so is James.
Super Firmino No matter how much pain, suffering, and betrayal JR put her through, she always truly loved him. It never changed. Same can be said about JR, He treated her like trash, sent her to a asylum got her to drink, and countless other ruthless things, but no matter how many women he was with or whatever he was doing , Sue Ellen was his one and only and he always immensely loved her. His life took a huge dive, once she left in the first version of Dallas . In the second version, JR got a little more tamer, and somehow tried to make it up to Sue Ellen, even trying to reconcile with her, and she was more than willing as well. This is why, she was so heart broken after his death. Your first love is always your first love.
And you know what else Super? Even if you are divorced, it doesn't always change feelings. And that's how she felt about JR. So leave her the hell alone.
Sue Ellen's love was Dusty not JR. In the first season of the original Dallas JR and Sue Ellen could not stand each other and they were so mean to another.
What a load of shite! What show did YOU Watch? Don't insult us please - and watch the show again. Sue Ellen tells JR he was the love of her life. You were clearly watching something completely different. Or are probably a Pam fan.
They were insistent on using the original southfork ranch to film this new show but it at some point had undergone a makover inside. More sense would have been to watch old episodes or looked at old set blue prints of the previous South fork interior. More bad continuity. Lame
It's such a shame Linda never got an Emmy! She deserved multiple Emmy 's , her performances were also superb, moving and deep!
Yes, but when Linda takes on the role as opposing sides, it becomes a problem. Linda cannot be anywhere near that courtroom.
DavidVarkonyi agreed!
Linda Gray wasn't acting here, it seems. Her grief was real.
@@PungiFungi . True!
She should have receive a honorable Emmy 4 lifetime achievements.
Linda Grays performance here is fantastic. She always has been a great actress.
What made this scene so hard to watch was Linda Gray and Larry Hagman were great friends in real life.
It was Suellen, Bobby and J.R. who were friends in real life, not Gary
@@teresawicks-kq3bq who said anything about Gary?
@@latinguy67 I didn't say you did. Tonya Meredith said that Gary, Linda and J R we're great friends in real life.
It's comforting to know that both Linda Gray and Patrick Duffy were by Larry Hagman's bedside when he passed away.

Linda gray deserves an Emmy award for best actress .she is fantastic actress
Yes Linda is a HIGHLY underrated actress!
Underrated? Not true. Shes done a ton of good work!!
I think what Linda meant is that she has never received the credit she truly deserves ❤
The way she said "He was my husband" it was like in that she forgot that they were divorced and that she using the word "was" like it just because he was dead not that they were divorced. Love Linda Gray.
Ya know the reboot had its ups and downs but the tribute and the respect they gave to not just the character but to Larry hagman was beautiful!
It was still better than anything else on tv we have now.
No matter what happened sue Ellen always loved Jr
And JR always loved Sue Ellen
Linda Gray as Sue Ellen deserved so many Emmy awards for her outstanding performances as Sue Ellen Ewing. She was a God on that show that took everything and still managed to survive with power and grace, somehow, someway, she made it through the very worst.
She was a drunk and bad mom
Linda Gray took a boozy bit side character, and made her immortal, right next to her TV husband JR. Together, they were Dallas. History has had its final say.
Larry hangman is deeply missed by all who new him in Dallas as the loveable villain jr x
Do you realize that by using misspelling the word that people are thinking doble about you.
You first error is the word new. An example would be new bedding, new clothes, new house and new cars just to mention a few.
On the other hand the word knew comes from the verb to know like he knew how to dance, she knew how to win him ever, they knew he was a gambler just to mention a few examples.
Please do paste only positive comments over here. ©®
Through the good and the VERY BAD between JR and Sue Ellen they were the loves of each other’s lives
Facts
They just got each other. They accepted each other.
JR and Sue Ellen really did love each other
no they didnt. Lying and intentionally hurting each other for years and dozens of adulterous cheating isnt love.
No matter how badly JR treated Sue Ellen, she could not resist him. There were several times in the series where she would raged and carry on and all he needed to do was force himself on her and after a short obligatory of resistance, she would reciprocate.
Yeah she would absolutely
What a great actress she is.
I have watched every episode of Dallas and all the reunion episode too. The greatest show
Man sue Ellen was so good . Everybody on dallas deserves many emmys
Heartbreaking scene.
i teared up when i was watching
I guess Bum wasn’t such a bad guy after all. It brings warm feelings to my heart that Bum created the exquisite portrait of JR.
It took me a bit to get into the modern version in season 1 as times have changed, we think of the old Dallas and it zips around a bit fast. HOWEVER, this reboot show is WONDERFUL!

I still miss the show.
Still watch Dallas TV almost every day: however:: everyone was dying or getting too old
This reboot was so good. It should have gone on for at least two more seasons. The younger cast was great, and the writers did a great job of making sure the classic characters weren't just furniture. It was a perfect mix of the old and the new, and the story lines were great. Such a shame the ratings dipped after JR died.
I agree!
Linda Gray and Larry Hagman were dear friends in real life. This had to have been so hard for her.
People on this thread who are denying that JR and Sue Ellen loved each other deeply have completely MISSED the point of one of the most integral and important relationships on the show - if not THE most important.

Bullshit Jr was abusive and a list and cheat
Wendy Richmond exactly! Linda Gray said Sue Ellen only loved J.R. and even when I'm watching even if J.R. is sleeping around he still loved her.
Theres no doubt JR loved Sue Ellen. But he did love her in his own way, due to the fact he could never help himself with cheating and his other scandals. But in his later years he certainly realised she was the only one he truly loved, as well as John Ross and his father, Jock.

No one could have her as J.R. wouldn't allow it. He did something to every man Sue Ellen loved or who loved Sue Ellen. Nicholas & Sue Ellen was hot.
Jr went down a gunfighter and a badass to the end
Sue Ellen got back at JR, when she made a motion picture film about their lives together. Behind JR's back. I thought that was very clever of Sue Ellen to do something like that.
Jason Gibson , she kicked JR in the nuts. Why is she carrying on??
But yet here she is heartbroken....I wander what she ever did with the film
You see scenes like this from Dallas version 2 and you think to yourself "this was great tv, how did this show fail?" Then you watch Jordana Brewster and the drug cartels and Mexico stuff and think "oh yeah".
Orangetree547 that was all bullshit, messing up such an iconic show.
Orangetree547 I'm only sticking to the original Dallas.
lol

@@PungiFungi True. Of course, she was also trying to rip off Breaking Bad, which was hugely popular at the time. It ended only a year before the new Dallas did.
Linda Grey was with him when he died in real life
No Emmy for her why???
Larry Hagman and Linda Gray portrayed their roles very well as JR Ewing and Sue Ellen Ewing, respectedfully, extremely well.
Rest In Peace, Mr Larry Hagman.
September 21, 1931 to November 23, 2012.
Please think positive daily. ©®
September 22, 2021 @ 3:40 am ©®
I think that Jr and sue eleven did truly loved each other even though it all the good and through the bad they still had the love for each other
Facts
I literally almost cried.
Sarah Fulghum as did i
Bum is so cool!
When Sue Ellen Ewing told Bum: "JR was my husband. He was my love." Bum got a very nice scolding from her.
Please have a nice day today. ©®

Does anyone else think the actor playing 'Bum' actually resembles Larry Hagman?
What J.R. would've wanted Sue Ellen to continue living in frustration, that's all.
bum... loyal friend👍
Love...
#SaveDallas
Bum was an interesting character!
Linda Gray was with Larry when he took his last breath
He looks like Steve Bannon
I have the flash player. I've watched countless videos but occasionally as in this one, I get a message saying that I need the adobe flash player to view it. I click on the link to install and it says I already have the player. Anybody know why this is?
what i find ironic ?.alll the characteristics that Sue-ellen hated in jr, were all the characteristics that turned her on about him.
Yes jr was the love of your life who cheated on you and made you a drunk.😂 Every woman deserves a man like jr.
Jr was the best😊
Was Bum on the original Dallas?
No, and never mentioned.
Okay, thanks@@johnd8167

Linda's great. And so underrated. But JR aggressively cheated on her with everything that moved, for years. Not sure this is a classic love story.
jr hated pity...

And you know what else Super? Even if you are divorced, it doesn't always change feelings. And that's how she felt about JR. So leave her the hell alone.
That painting of JR was complete garbage, looked like it was a bad paint by numbers creation.
Sue Ellen's love was Dusty not JR. In the first season of the original Dallas JR and Sue Ellen could not stand each other and they were so mean to another.
Jason Gibson JR and sue ellen were soul mates
Jason Gibson reminds me of Pamela and John Ross start
It is a thin line between love and hate, J.R. and Sue Ellen were the love of each other's lives , in spite of their problems and other lovers.
What a load of shite! What show did YOU Watch? Don't insult us please - and watch the show again. Sue Ellen tells JR he was the love of her life. You were clearly watching something completely different. Or are probably a Pam fan.
Jason Gibson Sue Ellen's love will always be J.R. even I've heard Linda Gray say that in interviews.
Sue Ellen never treated JR right. Damn her for this!
What? F off you twat!
j.d. Hogg what show are you watching?? 🤦
She kicked JR in the nuts! Why is she carrying on?
because there's a thin line between love and hate. and u obviously have NEVER been in love
They were insistent on using the original southfork ranch to film this new show but it at some point had undergone a makover inside. More sense would have been to watch old episodes or looked at old set blue prints of the previous South fork interior. More bad continuity. Lame
