I watched the episode where J. R. was buried for "old times sake." This was a nice trip down memory lane. All those wonderful actors that were in the original series came to the funeral. It was so good to see them again, since for many of us "Dallas" was a show that we watched every week and got caught up in the shenanigans of J.R. and his family.
Although the people that attended the funeral were actors, they genuinely seemed very sad that J. R. (Larry Hagman) was gone. The tears seemed very real and I am sure the older actors really did share a tear for Larry. I did. He was the man who taught us to love and hate a character at the same time.
The orginal show ran from 1978-1991. I have been remembering what I was doing those years. I guess that is what happens when we "relive" an event.
The late 70's were remarkable, and so were the 80's. I was a young woman then, involved in dating, my career of teaching, fun with friends, etc. It is nice to remember those times. It is funny, but I only remember the good times. I guess that is a blessing when you are older and there are not so many good times in the present.
Anyway, I say good-bye to Larry Hagman and J. R. Ewing. Thanks for the memories and I am glad you got to reprise your role in your 80's. That in itself gives us hope that life can continue and be full, no matter how old we get.
