Watch out! It is the Southfork folks coming to your television in Season 9 of Dallas, with big hair, bigger shoulder pads, and the biggest season of trouble and mayhem the Ewings have ever known.
This is the season that people are still talking about, more than twenty years after it was first shown.
When Season 9 opens, the Ewings and friends are reeling from the shock of Bobby Ewing’s death. Middle brother, Gary Ewing returns to Southfork for the funeral, opening up some old family wounds.
Sue Ellen turns again to alcohol and ends up on the skids in Dallas, and J. R., loving husband that he is (not,) has her institutionalized.
Pam tries to move on with her life, and abandons the oil business for emerald mines in South America.
Along with mourning and trying to move on, there are new deals, bigger deceptions and things in the past that just won’t stay buried.
Cliff thinks he finally has the deal that will wipe out J. R. Southfork hosts a rodeo with some drastic results for some of the family. Mandy is jealous of newcomer Angelica Nero, and poor Jamie needs a compatible blood donor so the search is on to find her nearest relative.
Sue Ellen makes valiant attempts to overcome her addiction, and appears to be on her way to a new life, but will J. R. let her go, or make a bid to win her back. Jenna decides that maybe she should leave Southfork and take Charlie, and just when you think Pam’s love life couldn’t get more confusing, Mark Graison returns from the dead.
It is all a lot of fun and drama and unbelievable moments in the favorite year of America’s favorite nighttime soap.
Dallas season 9 is presented on 4 double sided discs containing all 31 episodes. There are also some nice specials included. Seasons of Change examines the most famous sequences of this Season, and looks back to Season 8 to examine how Barbara Bel Geddes departure from the show for a year, and her return had an impact on the storyline.
This is a chance to see the year that had everyone talking, everyone glued to their television sets exclaiming, I can’t believe they are doing that. We all loved to hate J. R., but in Season 9 everyone had a turn at being on the bad list. Check it out!
