Dallas, one of the most memorable soap operas of the twentieth century revolved around money, power, scheming and oil. The "mother of all soap operas", which premiered in 1978, told the story of the life of the "Ewing" family and the career of the now 83-year-old Linda Gray really took off when she appeared on the soap.

In Dallas, Gray played "J.R. Ewing's" long-suffering wife from 1978 to 1989, as well as in the subsequent TV movies Dallas – J.R. Returns and Dallas – War of the Ewings. Naturally, she was also part of the cast when the show was rebooted in 2012.
