Center
Primary
The series primarily focuses on the dramatic interpersonal and business conflicts within a wealthy oil family, exploring themes of ambition, power, and betrayal without explicitly endorsing or critiquing a specific political ideology.
The series features visible diversity through the inclusion of prominent Hispanic characters, though the core family roles remain traditionally cast. Its narrative focuses on family and business drama without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes.
Secondary
The series features Drew Ramos, a gay character whose sexuality is presented matter-of-factly and is not a source of conflict or ridicule. Although he participates in antagonist plots, his motivations are unrelated to his identity. The portrayal is neutral, as it neither strongly affirms nor denigrates LGBTQ+ identity, treating it as a background element.
The series frequently depicts its main characters, who are nominally Christian, engaging in morally dubious actions, hypocrisy, and power struggles. The narrative often highlights the disconnect between their professed faith and their corrupt behavior, without offering a significant counterbalancing portrayal of faith as a consistently positive moral force.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 2012 revival of 'Dallas' features returning legacy characters and new additions. All established characters from the original series who appear in the 2012 show maintain their canonical gender.
