This is one of my absolute favorite seasons of the show. To me actually, this is where the real show begins-I'm a tremendous fan of the later years and these are the releases I have really been waiting for. With Patrick Duffy back, and Dack Rambo in the main title, and also starring Steve Forrest, Deborah Shelton, Jenilee Harrison, and Sheree J Wilson, this season is of course infamous for returning the show to "reality" by making the last year a dream. However, with Leonard Katzman and David Paulsen back in charge of the show, the real Dallas came back after the disappointing and weak year without Bobby. There is excitement, intrigue related to the oil business, bad behavior, reunions and breakups that had been waiting to happen, and huge epic events for the show as a whole. Just in general it is the show at it's best, with yet another classic cliffhanger.

Remember how each episode of "The Wild Wild West" began with "The Night of"? Or "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." used "The ____ Affair" for each installment? Well, the best way to describe season ten (really season NINE, but that's another story) would be to use the word "year" as a reference point:
This season, in no particular order) was:
1) "The Year of Valentine Lingerie" - In this storyline Sue Ellen (the one and only Linda Gray) becomes a worthy equal to husband J.R. (the Emmy-deserving Larry Hagman) as she becomes a successful entrepreneur and manipulator. Deborah Shelton, as J.R.'s latest "fling", Mandy Winger, is stunning as the symbol for the company, especially when she wears a big hat and a color-coordinated outfit. Derek McGrath is hilarious as Ozwald Valentine, the most unlikely designer of "naughty nighties."
2) "The Year of the Awakening" - Fortunately, the controversial "solution" to bring back Bobby (Patrick Ewing) is so quickly introduced in the first episode that viewers can jump into the plot devices for this season.
3) "The Year of the Comic Relief" - While Cliff Barnes (Ken Kercheval) has always been fodder for J.R., in this season he becomes the show's true buffoon, getting involved in one thing after another, in his quest to get the family that "wronged" his daddy.
4) "The Year of Male Chauvinism" - The writers intentionally (I hope) poked fun at the train of thought by having so many sexist comments made by Cliff and others in the cast, as well as situations where the female of the species was treated with less-than-polite respect.
5) "The Year of the Minority" - While there have been minorities seen - and even given a line or two - in the past, this was the season that saw them featured more prominently. Teresa (Roseanna Christiansen), the Ewing's Hispanic maid, gets more screen time and even gets to say more than "Dinner is served". Dora Mae, (the statuesque and always coiffed-to-the-nines Pat Colbert) is shown and heard more frequently to patrons of the Oil Baron's Restaurant and even gets to react to the actions of her customers, especially in a confrontation between Cliff and Jeremy Wendell. J.A. Preston even appears in several episodes as crafty CIA agent Leo Daltry. Daltry gets to deliver one of the more memorable lines of the season, one that makes J.R. speechless.
6) "The Year of Departures" - Suffice it to say, this season sees several "PRINCIPAL" leavings, including one of the original cast members.
7) "The Year of the Secretary" - All three of the "girl Fridays" get some increased screen time from J.R.'s Sly (Deborah Rennard) to Cliff's Jackie (Sherill Lynn Rettino) to Bobby's Phyllis (Deborah Tranelli). Even Sly becomes president of one of J.R.'s "dummy" corporations.
8) "The Year of Jeremy Wendell" - William Smithers as the devious oilman makes a worthy adversary for J.R., fitting in prominently in the season finale.
9) "The Year of Ray and Jenna" - Though just as equally dull as "The Year(s)of Ray and Donna", the story does allow some decent moments between actors Steve Kanaly and Priscilla Presley.
10) "The Year of Wes Parmalee" - This is probably the most absurd of the season's plot lines, but it does allow from some stellar acting from Barbara Bell Geddes (remarkable as always as Miss Ellie), Howard Keel as Ellie's husband Clayton, and guest Steve Forrest as the-man-who-might-be Jock Ewing.
The sound and picture of the DVD are not up to par with previous compilations and there are no "extras," not even audio commentary on select episodes.

Dallas is the greatest drama series, I have ever watched. I am glad that Season 10 is coming on January 13, 2009. This season is the last one for Donna Krebbs and Pamela Barnes Ewing. I hope Warner Bros. has plans for the 4 remaining seasons, in the near future. Please release them on DVD, after Season 10! I would LOVE to see all the storylines, of Dallas released on DVD.

Watching these old shows again is a real hoot. The acting and writing is better than quite a lot of the rubbish that is on network television today. Read more

We love the series, however, the quality of Season 10 was very poor. It kept messing up and freezing up where it didn't display the entire picture, nor did it provide any sound. Read more
