Cliff and the McKays

On yesterday's (1/5) episode, did anyone else notice the way that Cliff
high- tailed it out of there when McKay and his wife showed up at the
wedding ? It was subtle, but the way that he exited in order to avoid a
very awkward situation was humorous.

Hello all! This is an article that appeared in USA Today on Nov 2, 1990. This
was before the official cancelation of the series:
Darlin', Dallas is back tonight to begin its 13th season. Whoa! Don't hit the
zapper.
There are plenty of reasons to welcome back the most durable prime time soap.
The show's ratings have been slipping on Ewing Oil lately and the buzz at
Southfork is this will be JR's final roll in the Texas hay.
But Dallas is still classic, still a show worth shouting about:
See! Larry Hagman as JR Ewing, deceived oil baron, try to bully his way out of
an insane asylum before exacting revenge in the finest JR sleep with them,
discard them then ruin them tradition.
See! Susan Lucci join the cast as Sheliah Foley, a rich widow who is not what
she seems. She's a bitch like Erica on All My Children but starts out Texas
sweet.
See! Patrick Duffy as Bobby Ewing get the honeymoon in Paris from hell.
See! Barbara Eden teamed again with Hagman (I Dream of Jeannie duo). This time
she's a bitter enemy and her bellybutton doesn't show.
See! The producers try to hide the fact that they haven't signed Barabara Bel
Geddes to play Miss Ellie this season. Have you heard the one about "she's
vacationing in Europe"?
See! Howard Keel as Clayton Farlow try to stay in the storyline when he should
be in Europe with Miss Ellie. (You can afford to take a lot of trips to Dallas
when you're rich).
See! Ken Kercheval as Cliff Barnes get involved in politics and finally hook up
with a woman who doesn't dump him (Barbara Stock as Liz Adams).
See! Dallas become as obscure as Twin Peaks. Patrick Duffy's son, Padraic, 15,
plays Mark Harris. Dad's first series was the Man From Atlantis playing a
character named Mark Harris.
See! Kimberly Foster as Michelle Stevens out to get JR. She has the same
haircut (the British Press call it the "Kimberly cut") as Princess Di.
See! Cathy Podewell as JR's ex-wife, Cally, shake in her boots as she awaits
her master's revenge for not letting him out of the asylum.
See! Sasha Mitchell, as JR's in-over-his-head son James, lose everything at
poker and wind up a destitute biker.
See! Episode 4, promised to be a shocker that will make Bobby become a
different person and forever change the face of Southfork and everybody i it.
Just an ordinary day on Dallas, in other words!!
