‘Dallas’ star Ken Kercheval Dead At Age 83
Sad news to report for fans of the iconic primetime soap, Dallas. Ken Kercheval, who played the thorn in J.R. Ewing’s (Larry Hagman) side, Cliff Barnes, has passed away. The actor was 83 and died at his home in Indiana on Sunday. The cause of death is under wraps. He had been previously open about being a lung cancer survivor after years of smoking.
Kercheval was on Dallas for its entire run on CBS from 1978 to 1991, and returned to the TNT reboot from 2012 to 2014 to reprise his signature role.
On Dallas, Cliff Barnes was always the perennial loser when he went toe to toe with ruthless J.R, but in the final season, Cliff beats J.R at his own game and takes over Ewing Oil. Cliff was also hopelessly in love with Sue Ellen Ewing (Linda Gray) and was the brother to Pam Barnes, played by Victoria Principal.
As for Ken’s first big acting breaks, that came on daytime soap operas when early in his career he appeared on Search for Tomorrow and How to Survive a Marriage.
Later, he appeared on episodic dramas such as Starsky & Hutch, and Crossing Jordan. His final role was in a movie, 2019’s Surviving in L.A. said to be a comedy/drama in which he plays the business manager of a former teen sitcom star who trashed her life through drug abuse and is fresh out of rehab.
Share your thoughts on the passing of Ken Kercheval in the comment section below. But first, watch him as Cliff Barnes in this scene from TNT’s Dallas when he sees J.R. for the first time in years!

George Kennedy, the Oscar-winning star of 1967’s Cool Hand Luke, which also starred Paul Newman has died at age 91, his grandson, Cory Schenkel confirmed.
Kennedy died in his sleep at his Boise, Idaho home early Sunday morning, the day of the Academy Awards. He had been in failing health ever since his wife Joan died a little over a year ago. George had been under hospice care for the past month.
In the soaps, Kennedy is most remembered for his guest stints on The Young and the Restless playing Victor Newman’s despicable father, Albert Miller. Kennedy first played the role in 2003 and then reprised it again in 2010. Victor’s relationship with his father gave Eric Braeden some of the finest material of his career as the complex Victor. Albert had abandoned his family, causing his son to be raised in an orphanage.
CBS original primetime soap Dallas also featured Kennedy as Carter McKay, one of the Ewing families bitter enemies from 1988 to 1991. Geroge also played the role in two follow-up TV movies, 1996’s Dallas: J.R. Returns and 1998’s Dallas: War of the Ewings. In addition, Kennedy appeared in several of the 70’s major disaster films including the original Airport and several sequels, as well as in Earthquake. In the 80’s, he would appear in The Naked Gun franchise of films along with Leslie Nielsen.
After the jump, watch George Kennedy as Albert on The Young and the Restless in scenes with Eric Braeden and Joshua Morrow (Nick). Then share your thoughts on the passing of this talented actor in the comment section below! (more…)

I’m loving nuDallas. Yee Hawww!
isn’t it something… how it immediately grabs you and pulls you in?
it’s like i’m transfixed…
——————–
Prime Time (Blah) comes and goes so fast….. reason i love soaps….
———————
BUT! nuDALLAS… is intriguing…. compelling…. FANS… puhlease watch! for ratings sake…
——————-
yeah, i just finished the two-hour premiere…..
as usual…. it’s Anne and Sue Ellen that had me in tears….
Anne finding her kidnapped daughter – and watching Sue Ellen pour that glass of wine and poor it out….
—————————–
knowing that JR is R.I.P…. didn’t alter my perceptions of how good Dallas is.
Gosh darn it…
Sue Ellen to JR…. “if you can behave yourself… would you like a cup of tea”
Bobby….. searching for Ann’s daughter….
———————–
that comaraderie…. between Ann and Sue Ellen …. so remniscent of Pam and Sue Ellen. The spark and energy with Ann and Sue Ellen is provoking…. whether they be allies…. fighting over their sons…. men…. you name it…
Judith Light is great in this as usual even though she is only three years older than Mitch Pileggi.
Yeah, but she is such a good actress she will pull it off with an assist from the make up department.
Not sure if I’ll make it. Late night last night due to Super Bowl watching my Ravens kick ass. Up early for work (UGGH, when will they make SB Monday a national holiday?). I may have to catch this episode on On Demand. Sorry.
Loving the show! One of the best on TV! And I’m loving John Ross with Pamela!!!
What are tlhe ratings for last night – Season 2 2nd show?
Better than the daytime soaps by far! DAYS was my favorite soap, but has been SO boring for the past year! I still read the recaps for DAYS, but now I’m spending time watching Dallas instead of DAYS.
