Summary of Dallas Season 1 DVD Box Set

The series revolves around the Ewings, a wealthy Dallas family in the oil and cattle-ranching industries. It focuses mainly on John Ross Ewing III (Josh Henderson), the son of J.R. (Larry Hagman) and Sue Ellen Ewing (Linda Gray); and Christopher Ewing (Jesse Metcalfe), the adopted son of Bobby (Patrick Duffy) and Pam Ewing.[10] Both John Ross and Christopher were born during the original series' run and were featured in it as children (played by different actors). Now grown, John Ross has become almost a carbon copy of his father, bent on oil, money and greed. Christopher, meanwhile, has become a lot like Bobby, in that he is more interested in the upkeep of Southfork Ranch, much like his father and his late grandmother, Miss Ellie. As an additional point of contention, Christopher is also becoming a player in alternative energy (methane clathrate recovery), thereby eschewing the oil business. However John Ross is determined to resurrect the Ewings' former position in the oil industry.

Alongside John Ross and Christopher, original series characters Bobby, J. R. and Sue Ellen return in full capacity for the new series. Additional familiar characters, including J. R. and Bobby's niece Lucy Ewing Cooper (Charlene Tilton), their half brother Ray Krebbs (Steve Kanaly), and Ewing family rival Cliff Barnes (Ken Kercheval), appear as guest stars.

New main characters include Bobby's wife, Ann (Brenda Strong); Christopher's wife Rebecca (Julie Gonzalo); and Elena Ramos (Jordana Brewster), the daughter of the Ewing family cook, caught in a love triangle with Christopher and John Ross.
