...idea for the show, says Producer Leonard Katzman, was to imagine that Romeo and Juliet were playing just-pretend in that tomb and suddenly found themselves in Dallas. Bobby is Romeo, and his Juliet is Pamela Barnes (Victoria Principal), the daughter of a man Jock doublecrossed during his wildcatting days. Bobby brings her home to Southfork, and J.R. tries everything but cyanide to get rid of her.

...M.I.T. grad. Lauren (Diane Lane), the stepdaughter of an overseas American corporate executive, reads Heidegger for kicks. These two meet, go steady, then flee their meddling parents by traveling by train with Olivier from Paris to Venice. Hokey as it seems, this film's Romeo and Juliet want to pledge their eternal love by kissing in a gondola under the Bridge of Sighs...
