Now this is when Dallas got seriously good. Swellin stands by her man when he's riddled with bullets, but once JR's on the mend, Swellin hits the bottle, and their turbulent marriage lights up the screen. Dallas really is soap at its best, and all the favourites are there, plus some new characters, to spice up Series 4. However, the most successful themes are familiar: JR being dastardly, Swellin's lip quivering, bun fights at the Ewing Barbecue, poor Miss Ellie trying to keep the clan together, Bobby being perfect and more gratituous shots of the original Pammy in her swimsuit, long before lycra and silicone were the norm. And for all female fans, it's worth it just to see the fashion. Hark back to a time when stilletos matched your clutch bag, and bubble perms were the latest invention for hair.
Bring on Series 5.

Dallas just keeps getting better!
Review date: 2006-10-25 Rating: 10 out of 10
I enjoyed watching the series 4 of Dallas and think it is the best I have seen so far. The gripping storylines and snappy dialogue make it as fresh today as when it was first aired twenty years or so ago. However not having seen all of Dallas the first time around I found the bonus feature "Dallas reunion: A return to Southfork" a bit of a pain as it shows clips from later series. In my opinion this is totally the wrong place to include it as chronologically it is out of sequence
Who shot J.R?
Review date: 2006-08-01 Rating: 10 out of 10
This dvd is a must for all of those who can't remember who shot J.R. After the devious Texan got shot at the end of season 3 I had to buy this box set as soon as possible. With so many people wanting to see the back of J.R it was impossible for a person like me who was very young when the original episodes aired to work out who done it.
J.R is truly the original nasty man in any soap, but i'm glad he didn't meet his end and survived to terrorise the people of Dallas for many a season again.
It's brilliant from the glamour to the backstabbing. I loved it!
Out in the open and Out in the field!

Well, if Seasons 1, 2, & 3 on DVD haven't yet got you completely hooked - and goodness, it should have had some affect by now - then this Season 4 of "Dallas" will rock your world!
This is the Season the all-time whodunnit 'cliffhanger' is revealed to 'Who Shot JR?', but if you think that we find out right away then guess again!
The stories begin to intertwine beautifully and you will find yourself rejoicing and reminiscing like an old pro. Another addition to the scripts of this series comes in the form of a more business-like approach as youngest brother, Bobby takes over the reigns of Ewing Oil whilst JR is tucked up in a hospital bed at Dallas Memorial fighting for his life from the two bullets that were fired into him.
There are more revelations to come as the episodes unfold and introduce us to some of the newer characters of the time as well as a welcome return by some of the familiar faces. A great bonus on this DVD set is the "Dallas Reunion: Return To Southfork" documentary from a couple of years ago, so much so that I watched it twice in a row.
You certainly won't be disappointed with "Dallas" - the complete fourth season.
Excellent episodes. Timeless Drama.

When this season was first broadcast in 1981, DALLAS was the number one TV show in the world and everyone was talking about it. Season 4 is excellent and its gripping first few episodes are some of the most watched episodes in TV history where we finally learn "Who Shot J.R.?".
Also included as an extra is the marvelous "Dallas Reunion: Return to Southfork" which aired in the USA in November 2004 when most of the original cast reunited (e.g. Larry Hagman, Victoria Principal, Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray, Mary Crosby, Ken Kercheval, etc.), and has reminiscences, bloopers, behind-the-scenes footage and home movie clips.
The picture quality of all 23 episodes in this DVD box set is very good, with the episodes being clear and sharp. WB has cleaned up the picture of most of the dust and dirt in all 23 episodes in this season 4 dvd box set.
