Well, I hate to rain on this parade, but Hagman was a horrible person in real life. He cheated relentlessly on his wife, Maj, & had drug/drinking/orgie parties at his house all the time while his 2 small children were there. Twice his very young daughter was molested by his "friends". So, while I hope he's RIP, I kind of doubt it.
In Memory of Larry Hagman, Ken Kercheval & George Kennedy, thanks all so much for your wonderful legacies of a show that'll remain watched for all eternity, see you all at The Crossroads 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Larry Hagman knew from the very beginning how to play this character, which was basically a background character in the original "Dallas" mini-series. He injected just the perfect amount of humour and malevolence into the role. His skill as an actor made J.R. Ewing someone you couldn't take your eyes off (similar to what Henry Winkler did with The Fonz on "Happy Days").
His character was only supposed to be a supporting role in the Dallas reboot series, too. But, producers quickly realized it simply wasn't possible to have J.R. as a supporting role. He was front and center in the reboot. Proof of that was how long the reboot lasted after he passed which wasn't very long. Larry Hagman loved playing J.R. And, his performance was proof of that. Pure brilliance and incredibly convincing in front of the camera.
I couldn't agree more. I miss TV like this especially Dallas. Watching this in the 80s all nice and relaxed and then the theme tune would kick in, then JR at his best, Brilliant.
Who shot JR, was on the night before my Wedding. We had the rehearsal dinner at our new apartment. The rehearsal dinner, turned into the The Who Shot JR Party. I’ll never forget that party.
Leonard Katzman’s last Dallas: JR Returns, lived up to the original series. Katzman died shortly after production finished. Katzman and Larry Hagman, were the driving forces that made Dallas, the greatest drama on TV. I miss those days
I just went to texas and went to southfork ranch as a huge fan of this show it was a thrill. I learned a lot that I didn't know about this show for example Jim Davis wasn't the first choice to play Jock the first choice was non other then John the duke Wayne but he was fighting cancer at the time and told lorimar they should hire his good friend jim Davis who was down on his luck and homeless at the time. interesting fact I never knew.
That's not true the one and only person that lorimar wanted to play jock was Jim Davis now John Wayne was offered the role of Marshall Dillon on gunsmoke but turned it down but he told them they should hire his good friend James arness
@@JasonGregory1978 well i went to southfork ranch twice and heard that story twice including from a lady who was a dallas historian so no offense but i believe her.
Hey listen you know since you mentioned that George Kennedy was Larry hagman's good friend. George Kennedy was the one that tried to get him to stop drinking. No one else tried to get him to stop and it was said that one time he said to Larry Hagman Larry get off the sauce it's going to kill you
@@rumarspencer7302 I went Googled it and I read an article somewhere. George Kennedy was still alive back when Larry Hagman died but he had a couple years left Maybe and in 2012 he was still somewhat functionable I mean he still did acting up the 2016 so he was asked about it and he said you know I told Larry over and over and over not to screw with alcohol and they refer to it as the sauce. Larry Hagman love him they just weren't as close as he was to Patrick but Larry Hagman did appreciate George Kennedy they've known each other a long time
LOL! Same old J.R! Age hasn't stopped him any. He may fallen on his ass towards the end of the original series but he bounced back and experienced a resurgence!
Wonderful memories wish I could watch it all again loved Dallas never missed an episode neither did my mam and dad who like the great man himself JR are no longer here 😢
I have the whole series on DVD its a great show i grew up with this show watching it with my mom every Friday so its worth the money to buy the whole series on DVD there are a total of 14 seasons.
That is great, you watch it with your mother on Fridays. That is the night that the original series was on CBS, from 1978 to 1991. Fridays nights in the 80s. Dukes of Hazzard at 7, Dallas from 8 to 9, and Falcon Crest from 9 to 10PM. This was in the central time zone, I actually lived in Dallas when it was on the air. Before everyone wants to start correcting me. lol......I know, on the East coast Dallas was on at 9. I can't remember accurately, but I think Dallas was on Sunday nights in Season 1 and the mini series.
I was at Southfork ranch last Friday on my way back from my vacation in New Mexico.Its amazing how they make the ranch look so big on screen when its kinda small acrewise
I'm a huge Marvel comics fan and I enjoy going to comic cons. Saw a guy dressed up as Doctor Doom one year. Great costume, and I told him that Doom was the second greatest bad guy of all time. " Who's the first!? " he demanded " JR Ewing." There was a pause and then he nodded and said " I accept that"
So do i .have all 14 seasons of dallas.thecast and crew were all so good playing their roles.jr you werr. No.1 in my book What an actor.god bless you. Jr.
Lee, if J.R. Ewing were a real person vs a fictional character, he too would attempt to play even me like a fiddle, but I in some way would demonstrate the love of our HEAVENLY✝️🙏🏾FATHER to him.🕯️📖
He was one of my favorites not the favorite which is why I didn't like your comment but I don't hate you're coming either. I certainly understand how you could think he was your favorite actor he definitely was a legend in the first time I ever learned about him was ironically on Dallas but what's funny is Larry Hagman was the one that wanted him there. They were very dear friends in real life very very dear friends in real life it was George Kennedy who tried to get Larry Hagman to stop drinking
@@bartkearns1195 I first saw him in Dallas when I was a kid. I always wondered what would've happened if he'd been in Gran Torino instead of Clint Eastwood.
If you grew up watching this show black or white you have hussle all the way through you! We all have plenty of J R Ewing in us & thus is why we love the character roll so much played out by Mr.Larry Hagman....no television show til present day has compared to Dallas...the writers were geniuses.
That was a great show JR was very crafty in the Business knew how to be cagy as well As always be one step ahead of cliff Barns to setting him up with false deals to think he might stand a chance against JR
larry was kind enough to send an 8x10 color glossy signed to me a long with a signed "JR Ewing" Southfork Ranch $10,000.00 bill...the tails side says "in Hagman we trust" lol. i grew up on "i dream of Jeannie" reruns then "Dallas" came along and what a joy larry has been in my life. hope you agree.
one of the big regrets of my life was in 2012. A month before Larry Hagman died I had the chance to see him in Dallas at one of the hotels he was or somebody's house I think he was doing the function for the new Dallas. I thought he would still be alive the next year and I couldn't afford the $400 to see him. Man I wish I had I wanted to get an autograph from him for my dad's 65th birthday but then I said no I'll get it next year he'll still be around he died November that year this happened in October that year I hate myself for that Larry if you get to read this from heaven I'm so sorry
Cliff sells Ewing Oil to Bobby, in a roundabout way J.R. Did get Ewing Oil back. Cliff became richer and J.R. Is still rich. The big loser turned put to be Carter McKay of Weststar in the long run.
Carter McKay got a golden parachute to leave. If JR was buying up Westar stock on the open market, Westar's stock probably got a nice bump and McKay's options were well in the money.
Larry hagman was a great actor however his character was evil the show was totally evil as I look back on it so I'm really not fond of it but I did like it but in retrospect I just thought it was very evil
@@marilynwagers786 J.R. was a bastard you just loved to hate, that was part of his appeal. It’s not like he was supposed to be a role model you know. 😏
I would have loved a scenario where all of these men did a scene as their trademark characters together! Can you imagine Victor, Jack, Adam, Edward, Sonny, and Jr all together. Shoot throw in Asa from One Life To Live. That would have been legendary!
Absolutely legendary! Larry Hagman and Ken Kercheval...Both those guys are amazing. Y'all rest in peace fellers. Great fun, thank you. ♡
MARTINE PEAK I was a naive teen and they taught me what is hatred.
I miss him and Pam too. She never hesitated to give JR back what he gave her.
Those were the days when we would all sit together and watch Dallas… How I miss those special days…
RIP Larry Hagman and Ken Kercheval
Two legends gone but not forgotten
They where both awesome

Oh, how I love that mischievous 'ol JR Ewing!!!! One of the best characters in the history of television!
Life is so short. I remember 1982 like it was yesterday. To see these two old and now gone it really hits home how little time we have here.
I was born in 82 and it's far from yesterday

EXACTLY!
He never once (PLAYED)this Character that's the beauty of true actors they're themselves

R.I.P. Larry Hagman, You were the best.
Who shot JR, was on the night before my Wedding. We had the rehearsal dinner at our new apartment. The rehearsal dinner, turned into the The Who Shot JR Party. I’ll never forget that party.
Larry Hagman was the type of gentleman you’d wish he was. Super nice guy
Yes he was and he was the funniest actor
Last president?
You got that right, Best of The Best Villians.
Larry Hagman, Ken Kercheval, George Kennedy, were so great!!! RIP, Boy's, you did a fantastic job, at your craft.... 🙏🙏🙏😥😥😥...
Don't forget Clayton. But I absolutely loved George Kennedy
The look on Cliffs face when JR walks in is the million dollar shot.
"Some days you're the windshield, and some days you're the bug!" Love it!!!!
Classic JR
Doy Virginia well said.
J R Is just to smart
JR was the Ultimate tycoon VILLAIN!!!

JR always bring a smile in my face :)
Miss JR Ewing, he had everyone in his hip pocket. He is the best. Rest In Peace. We all miss you.
I love the look on Cliff's secretary when she sees JR!

What happened to Larry Hagmans eyebrows as he got older? Those eyebrows looked kind of sinister which when you think about it kind of suited JR
Hagman actually cultivated them intentionally for that reason :)
You can tell how nervous Cliff is. Trying to act like he’s not nervous, but he is thinking OH SHIT!
