The Dallas Covers, Ads & Articles Thread.

And now, coming from the sunny Spain:

Catalan ads for "Conundrum" and "Knots Landing".

A few NZ TV Guides from 84-87. I am still looking for some other NZ TV Guides myself! Dallas was shadowed by Corrie and Dynasty in NZ. It was played at 10pm til about 1987 when it finally got moved to 9pm whereas Dynasty aired at 8.30pm so attracted a lot more viewers. Nevertheless look at these Guides. 2 in April 1985, 2 in June 1985. I don’t know any show aired now in NZ that would get more than one mag cover every couple of months max.

And here we have the ONLY five Dallas covers from NZ Woman’s Weekly, NZs third biggest mag. They even snubbed VP on being on a cover of this :-( And (to my knowledge?) this is the only main cover in the world of Alan Beam?? He married a kiwi lady! Dynasty and Corrie were on soooo many of this mag. So weird and such a shame Dallas wasn’t on more here

Great thread and covers! Had a good laugh reading the old Sheree Wilson interview. People on campus just "lived" to take your picture, uh huh, sure honey. Confirms my impression after meeting her during filming in California in 1989 that she is full of herself, and that she earned her job on Dallas on the casting couch in Katzman's office. Her ego and what she probably did to advance her career were probably what her first ex-husband didn't approve of.

I'd like to think Alan Beam was the big breakout star in NZ, to the extent that the Dallas fever for Kiwis was known as "Did Alan Shoot That Guy With The Hat?"
