The 13th season of Dallas is now on DVD from Warner Home Video! With this release, we’re only one season -- and two TV movies -- away from owning the entire series.

For JR Ewing, Season 13 is as unlucky as a steer at a Texas barbecue. He starts by lying and cheating Ewing Oil to the brink of destruction and ends by kicking and screaming in a psychiatric hospital. In between, he tires of his pretty young wife, seethes while Cliff Barnes’ political star rises, and bumps into a past he didn’t know he had. Meanwhile, Clayton and Miss Ellie investigate a multiple-murder mystery, folks from seasons past unexpectedly return to stir up trouble, and Bobby stays busy removing JR’s knives from his back, chasing after a Pam look-alike and bringing a new Mrs. Ewing to Southfork.

The 13th season of Dallas was the first for the show outside the Top 30 since the original miniseries in 1978. The show finished 43rd for the year. This was part of a longer-term downward trend that would see the show finish 61st in its final year the following season. Though there’s still plenty to see here, it is clear Dallas is a show in its death throes now.
