Is this for Real

[Bobby Southworth]

And every time you watch Teresa doing her job or follow instructions in a Classic Dallas rewatch it's because you know JR had conned her husband out of rich oil property. She was supposed to have servants, not be one.
Thanks to this retcon, Classic Dallas kinda dodges that bullet and you won't feel uncomfortable when you watch Teresa setting Miss Ellie's dinner table or decorating Miss Ellie's patio with the obligatory yellow stuff.
I think, if New Dallas had retroactively altered what happened on-screen in Classic Dallas, some of the fans would have hated it even more.
If a retcon has its cake and eat it then it works for me.

I'll be honest, it has been so long, and I wasn't all that invested in the Ramos family plot even then, so; I somewhat forgot about Carmen's husband being cheated by the Ewings.. Now that it's been brought back to my attention, I can see your point. I think maybe I checked out a little whenever it wasn't JR, John Ross, the Rylands, Sue Ellen, and to a lesser extent, yeah, even Bobby, but I wasn't real fond of this version of Bobby, and especially Ann.

It kinda would re-enforce what I already believed about the Ewings - none of them were decent people.

And that was the beauty of Dallas - how dysfunctional the family was...until outsiders attempted to attack.

They should have explained how Ray got the ranch back in the movie.

The continuity errors and lackluster writing were major factors in the decline of the Dallas franchise as a whole as I see it.

All Cidre had to do was make her Terressa's daughter. Problem solved,

That was the frustrating thing about it. All the changes could have been explained in-story. Ignorance or just laziness?
