Why not ask their new Director of Programmes @iankatz1000 what his wife's @Justine_Roberts thinks of #Genderquake ? Oh and how is @MumsnetTowers getting on with its feminist purge?

"Um, what did the op actually want again?"

Not sure, but at least she gave herself a Biscuit for her crap thread title!

Sidelook · 09/05/2018 17:24

Scrap the original post but will keep the JR part as I love the Dallas nostalgia. I always wanted to be Lucy she was glam and fab.
And the fight between Alexis and Crystal in the pool was epic

But now you're conflating Dallas and Dynasty, Sidelook. This is all going to get very confusing Grin

Bearhunter09 · 09/05/2018 17:26

Ooh I had the badge “who shot jr?” A tv campaign only ever matched by “free Deidre Barlow”

Dynasty is on Netflix. It’s on my watch list. Superb. I was in love with Priscilla Presley. I still am.

SeahorsesAREhorses · 09/05/2018 18:03

Everybody go and watch the Dynasty remake....bloody brilliant. Blake is much improved, as is Crystal, and Sammy Jo is a bloke.Grin

Mogleflop · 09/05/2018 18:09

So no response from @JustineMumsnet? Typical shabby Mumsnet cover-up! Wink

PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 09/05/2018 18:11

JR always gave me the wiggins. I preferred Ray Krebbs.

I still haven't got over the fact that they changed Miss Ellie...

Wow Southfork really isn’t that big afterall. They were just pretending to be rich, weren’t they?

I used to love the Man from Atlantis starring Patrick Duffy.

PanPanPanPing · 09/05/2018 18:45

So, Justine, you're outing yourself as a Dallas fan, rather than a Dynasty fan?!

Nextloorejext · 09/05/2018 19:02

“‘Surely it’s JR Hartley, that advert about the elderly chap and his book. Was it about fly fishing?“ - I 😭 everytime i see that ad - it really gets me.

Anyway i was sure this was about Jo Rowling - just sayin!

cloudtree · 09/05/2018 19:02

Didn't they change Miss Ellie and then change her back again. I might be misremembering?

tccat · 09/05/2018 19:05

They changed Pam and Jock Ewing too
I loved Knots Landing

Mummyoflittledragon · 09/05/2018 19:07

Cloud
She apparently had plastic surgery on her honeymoon. So not likely. Possibly the repeats.

DexDexter · 09/05/2018 19:11

Feminist purge sounds painful. Love me, ladies.

cloudtree · 09/05/2018 19:12

No they did! Ive just checked Barbara Bel Geddes 1978-1984, Donna Reed 1985 for one season and then Barbara Bel Geddes 1985 - 1990.

DexDexter · 09/05/2018 19:16

I have literally just now realised why people sang "And Bobby lives under the sea" as the last line of the Dallas song - he was Man From Atlantis! I didn't know!

Mummyoflittledragon · 09/05/2018 19:19

Well there you go. I didn’t realise that.

SadieHH · 09/05/2018 19:21

Who was Miss Ellie's second husband? He was crap he was.

Gazelda · 09/05/2018 19:22

Bobby Ewing was the Man From Atlantis?! That's insane.

DexDexter · 09/05/2018 19:37

I'm so glad it wasn't just me who didn't know. I thought the line was because he liked swimming or something.
