My vote is Pricilla Presley. Damn terrible acting....
Sonya
Another vote for Presley. Just when I think she can't
get any worse she reaches a new low. What suprises me
is when she did The Naked Gun the media made a big deal
about her being a comedian, apparently they never saw
how funny she was on Dallas.

Dallas wasn't exactly loaded with second-generation Sarah Bernhardts, so
there's
lots to choose from here. Presley is, agreed, a hideous actress, but she
did
have the virtue of being pleasant to look at. (If only they had written
Jenna as a
mute...) Jenilee Harrison not only matches her for sheer ineptitude, but
manages
to be physically repulsive as well. (Those teeth! Find this girl an
orthodontist quick!)
However, my vote for the all-time worst would have to be Kimberly Foster,
an actress
so spectacularly awful that she must truly be seen to be believed.

Maybe I'm getting the Worst Actress/Worst Character contests

Ehh... I'm more inclined to give that award to Lou Ella, one of J.R.'s first
secretaries.

I cast my vote for Priscilla Presley too. I think that she's a better
actress now, but on Dallas she's horrible!

Well the actress who played Holly Harwood was Lois Chiles and she ended
up in a James Bond move as one of the "Bond Girls" (Moonraker??) and I
don't remember if the movie was before or after Dallas. Of course well
all know we've not seen much of her since...........

She was also in the star-studded 1976 adaptation of Agatha Christie's
"Death on the Nile".

(1.) Mrs. Shepard (Sue Ellen's and Kristin's mother) -- While wanting
daughters to be "winners" is one thing, not knowing the difference
between "winners" and "whipped" is another.
(2.) Marilee Stone / Fern Fitzgerald -- A fine actress in other roles
where I've seen her, but she over-played this (frankly not
well-considered) role as a super-horny, young-man-bedding rich widow
who somehow manages to keep her husband's oil empire alive and well
while yet also keeping her unclad butt by the swimming pool 90% of the
time (apparently).
(3.) J.R.'s secretary before Sly [can't even remember the CHARACTER
name!!] -- C'mon, no big-city company is going to have an **executive
secretary** who's *that* slutty, not even if her boss *does* keep her
around primarily for couch duty!
(4.) And, bless her heart, Donna Reed as Miss Ellie in the latter part
of the '84-'85 season. I hate to say that because she was a great
actress in other roles (most notably, of course, Mary in "It's a
Wonderful Life"), but not even the sack dresses would have made her
Miss Ellie. (Of course, Lorimar didn't even try that ploy -- but, as
we now know, the poor woman was dying of cancer, so perhaps she was
too thin to wear them "properly"?? Dunno.)

It wasn't a "gang", it was just a few high-school twits. And Bobby didn't
take on *all* of them, just the two twits stupid enough to think they could
actually take him on. It *was* hilarious, though...but only from the point
of view that those idiots actually thought they could take on, and beat,
someone who was obviously in better shape than either of them!!

Supposedly at one point early in the series, Bobby was supposed to
rescue Swellen from a burning or wrecked car. During one of the takes,
Patrick Duffy ripped off his clothes to reveal a Superman costume
underneath. He tucked Linda Gray under his arm and tried leaping into
the air several times, after which he said, "Oh, the hell with it,
let's walk."

That sounds hilarious - how did you know about it?
This WAS hilarious... I have the bloopers tape, and this outtake
was included. Victoria Principal was standing w/ Duffy beside Swellen's
car (Swellen was passed out inside). All of a sudden, he just starts
taking his clothes off, and there's the Superman duds! The look on VP's
face is priceless as she watches him! Then he reaches in the car,
grabs Linda Gray, and *tries* to fly away with her.
No, of course not...he's The Man From Atlantis.
