Stepping inside Southfork Ranch: DALLAS dreams come true!
Join us for a fun travel vlog in Dallas, Texas as we explore Southfork Ranch and all things Dallas! Our friend Bernard is visiting the USA for the first time, and he’s a huge fan of the Dallas TV show that took the world by storm in the 1980s, including his home country of Austria. He’ll share fond memories of growing up dreaming about visiting Dallas, and he’ll finally get a chance to walk in the footsteps of JR Ewing! We’re excited to explore Dallas with him and show him what makes this place so special. But is everything really bigger in Texas? We’ll answer that question… and more!

The SouthFork Experience was worth it in 2024 I had a blast and had been to SouthFork many times before met all the cast no rushed. They are doing it again in February 2027 but I am not going. Had breakfast with Patrick Duffy and Dinner with Joan Van Ark she was hot shit.

This video was just great. It reminded me so much of my first vacation in the USA in 2003 when I went there to California, to discover everything l saw on TV back in the 80s and 90s… I still visit very regularly, focusing on different topics related to history mostly in the West…. but this video was a real treat…. I am so glad for Bernhard that he was able to do all this… Best greetings from France, and besten Grüßen nach Deutschland !

Bernard was so fun! He seemed really happy. I hope his visit was all he hoped it would be!

I didn't know it was still there! I assumed it all had been demolished decades ago.
Wow, I didn't realize people in other countries grew up watching it too! That's wild.
Also, what were all our parents thinking, letting us watch this as kids? 😆

I love that your passion for the series has never faded despite its being off the air for so many years. Always great to see Southfork and have all of those wonderful Dallas memories come flooding back. Thanks for all that you do with your channel.

I see they no longer have that astroturf platform near the pool. Do you know if they recreated the pool in Hollywood? In many scenes the background looks really fake so I was wondering. I've driven past the twin gold glass buildings before, and I'd love to check out Southfork sometime.

x 5:17 I ate celebrity meals at McDonald's last year for my birthday and am going to eat them again this year for my birthday.
o That makes two years in-a-row eating at Pizza Hut for my birthday followed by two years in-a-row eating at McDonald's.
† Pizza Hut was the only chain restaurant in my hometown area until I started at Burwell High School then a McDonald's opened up.
– They are both in Ord, Nebraska (my birthplace), which is 15 miles from my hometown of Burwell, Nebraska.

Great video. I'm a friend of Bernhard from Germany and I was often in the USA in the 90s, mostly in California, New York and Las Vegas. I always had a good time and fell in love with the USA. It's nice to see that Bernhard also experienced so many positive things and had a lot of fun.👍

Great video. I am looking for a time machine that will take me back to the 80s, also a one-way ticket too.

My Daughter and I are planning on making the Dallas trip from Phoenix this spring and doing SF Ranch along with as many filming locations as we can in the 4 or 5 days we will be there. I watched the original Dallas with my parents in the first run, then the reboot as well. My Parents are both gone now, but my Daughter and I are watching the entire series together and she is hooked. This is the 4th time I've viewed it in its entirety.
