It looks like the fight to save the Dallas TV show is over — at least for now. After TNT cancelled the revival series after three seasons, fans rallied to save Dallas and studio Warner Horizon worked to find a new home. The latter’s efforts have come up empty.
Executive producer Cynthia Cidre and director Michael Robin released a joint statement to DallasDecoder to share the bad news:
Hi Friends,
Well, we have come to the end. After a 6-week attempt to try and land our beloved “Dallas” at another network, we have to inform you that we have not succeeded. Warner Horizon has attempted, in a Herculean way, to try and find us a new home, but at the end of the day it did not work out.
We so appreciate the outpouring of support by all of you, and the #SaveDallas campaign was a truly remarkable undertaking. We cannot fully express how much we loved making this show for you and with you. We had 3 wonderful years together, and we had the times of our lives bringing this iconic show back to television. Thank you for your support; thank you for your loyalty to our wonderful characters; and thank you for watching our show.
We wish you all our very best, and thank you again for loving “Dallas.”
With great admiration and appreciation,
Cynthia Cidre and Michael Robin
The new Dallas ran for three seasons on TNT and ended with several cliffhangers. Hopefully, Cidre and Robin will share what they had in mind for season four at some point.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Dallas won’t be returning for a fourth season? Would you like to see the Ewings come back some day?
That is a shame that they don’t want to keep a good clean family show running, with all the other garbage they put on TV
I ask that you please bring Dallas back! I loved the old and the new version of Dallas and it is such a shame to end it this way. If you have to end it, at least tie up the loose ends so we aren’t all left hanging!

Please bring dallas back. . I have watched this show many years from the first to the last. ..bring dallas back.
Dallas was a great show. I hope it will return
It would be the worst mistake cancel we love DALLAS!
We have been waiting for Dallas to come back on! I’s one of the few shows that my husband asks about. We are so tired of the hundreds of reality shows that we would never watch. Over the years a lot of favorites have been cancelled so I know it won’t be back. All the networks have gone to hell.
Loved the show way back when and love the new show as well! Will miss it! I see there is a new series coming out called “Blood and Oil” I will suspect it will be on the same lines as Dallas!!! Very sad to hear Dallas will not be returning!
how can they do that to us
for the fans and the show
I am a big Dallas fan
I loved that show
I want to know who the daddy is
keep on fighting
fans will be there to back you guys up
take them down to court
you will win that case I know you will
I will help
Promise
want Dallas back
put Dallas back
the fans want Dallas back
Cynthia Cidre is the problem with her writing the new show. The old Dallas was a 1000 times better because of the writers. Cynthia tried to do something and it never quite made it. She should have stuck with old Dallas theme or premise. The Ewings didn’t look wealthy , just average. What kept viewers tuned in was JR and his machinations and others trying to outwit him. I liked the drinks before the family dinner to discuss what dastardly thing they eldest son did. You never really saw much of the inside of the home and it had changed,… Read more »
Too bad it’s not on Netflix like some other new shows are that way we could watch it at our leisure and Dallas binge ..watch a whole season at one time
please we and all my friends have been waiting for dallas to come back on why are they not going put the show on the people want dallas back!!!!!!!
Please bring Dallas back. Take off all the other trash shows
I agree there are many TV movies that are trash!!!! why not take them off and leave Dallas on
I love the old and the new DALLAS!! You didn’t try hard enough to find a new home for DALLAS!!!! There’s a new home for DALLAS out there somewhere!! Some of the garbage shows should be taken off the air!!!! Also, there are many TV movies that are trash!!!! WAKE UP TV EXECUTIVES!!!!
I AGREE THERE IS A NEW HOME OUT THERE FOR DALLAS! YOU GOTTA BRING IT BACK! ,
would love to see Dallas return but I never liked the new Dallas as much as the old one. I liked the way old Dallas started with breakfast building up to JR plotting some dastardly deed throughout the day and by dinner with the family maybe hearing about it. The plot was always built up during the day leaving viewers hanging wondering how JR will get away with it or be found out by Bobby or someone. This new show has no family get togethers and basically no family dealing in the house at all. The oil baron ball looked… Read more »
