Show of hands: Who misses "Dallas" on TNT?

Then maybe you need this "Dallas Movie Collection" DVD set. It has three feature-length movies spun off from the 1978-91 series: a prequel called "Dallas: The Early Years" (1986), and then two more called "Dallas: J.R. Returns" (1996) and "Dallas: War of the Ewings" (1998).

As a bonus, there's a retrospective featurette, "Dallas Reunion: Return to Southfork."

The prequel doesn't have the same stars from the original show, but the other two movies have Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray.

Dallas (9pm, TNT) - Cue the music! TNT launches a continuation of the iconic 1978-91 drama series, crossing generations of Ewings as they battle for power, love and oil at the Southfork ranch. In tonight's premiere, family members gather for a wedding, but simmering rivalries surface due to secret oil drilling. J.R., Bobby and Sue Ellen are all here, as Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray reprise their respective roles from the original show. A second episode airs at 10:15 so make sure your DVR gets them both! Adrienne has a review.

Thorne (9pm, Encore) - Detective Inspector Tom Thorne (David Morrissey) finds himself on the hunt for two serial killers who appear to be working together. Sandra Oh stars as a tough detective dealing with a drug problem.

Royal Pains (9pm, USA) - Jill's nephew acts out at summer camp, and Hank suspects there's more to his behavior than meets the eye. Elsewhere, Evan sees a potential client in a lonely young heiress.

Necessary Roughness (10pm, USA) - Dani helps a roller-derby star get to the bottom of her collapse. Elsewhere, Ray Jay navigates relationship woes and T.K. must prove he can run or risk losing his bonus.

Around the World in 80 Plates (10pm, Bravo) - The chefs head to Bologna, Italy, where they prepare tortellini. Drama unfolds when simmering anger between two cooks heats to a high boil. Paul Bartolotta is the local food expert.

Some folks try to gussy up their night-time soaps, aiming to posit them as sophisticated talky modern dramas. (Yes, I'm talking to you, Shonda Rhimes),

Thankfully, the folks who've reignited "Dallas" (9-11 p.m. Wednesday, TNT) didn't go that route. They're giving us straight soap opera -- ridiculous, over-the-top, piling up the plot lines so each episode is fatter than a double-stuffed Oreo. And boy is it fun.

This "Dallas" presents the new generation with the same issues. JR's son John Ross (Josh Henderson) is all grown up, as is Bobby's son Christopher (Jesse Metcalfe). But they're on opposing teams. John Ross secretly discovers oil on Southfork, while Christopher is exploring alternative fuels.
