Dallas - Series 4 (Box Set)

Advantages: Great DVD set, Great cast, Nostalgic
Disadvantages: Don't be silly! Ok, Extra features are poor

...Admitting that you have purchased the DVD set of Dallas is akin to telling your friends that you don't just do the dance to 'Agadoo' for the kids sake! The shame, the embarrassment, the persecution that you feel - well lets just say I am getting very adept at disguises. Joking aside, although Dallas was THE series of the 80's (yes it was, no arguements please!) there are stil a lot of strange people that didn't like Dallas: yes really! ;-) To return to the matter in hand, this a review of the Dallas DVD box set - seasons 1 and 2. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The series On Sunday, April 2, 1978 (drumroll please) CBS's new series, Dallas, aired.
