Dallas

Audience emotional responses for Dallas (2012) are primarily driven by the intense family drama and the clash between bitter rivals, J.R. and Bobby Ewing's children, over the Ewing dynasty and SouthFork. A significant sense of Love for family, legacy, and the iconic ranch is central, often intertwined with Sadness over conflicts, betrayals, and the potential loss of what they hold dear.
