TNT may have shut the door on Dallas, but there's still hope for the show to find a home at a new network.

Dallas Showrunner Already Has Season 4 Planned Out

Thousands of Dallas fans worldwide tuned in to listen to Patrick Duffy's interview with myTalk 107.1 on Wednesday as he spoke about the canceled show. The actor, who played Bobby Ewing, told fans to keep pushing.

"Until we as a cast and [executive producer] Cynthia Cidre say, 'Stop, it's a dead issue,' we should keep going forward. And as a cast, we encourage every one of our followers to do that," he told the Minnesota radio station.

The 65-year-old said that Cidre and Warner Bros., the parent company, will only forfeit their efforts if other networks lose complete interest in the show, which "hasn't happened."

TNT announced the show's cancellation after three seasons in early October. The reboot of the original Dallas, which aired from 1978 to 1991, kicked off in 2012 with 7 million viewers. However, that number began to decrease - the season three finale on Sept. 22 only brought in 1.7 million viewers. It's assumed that the switch from summer to fall for season two caused the decrease, despite the return to the summer for the last season.

Since the cancellation, old and new Dallas fans are continuously posting tweets to get another network's attention and have even signed a petition on Causes.com, which has over 80,000 signatures to date.

"We have the most remarkable fan base that I've ever heard of," Duffy said. "These people are the most phenomenal, proactive group of fans that I've ever heard of."

As for TNT, Duffy believes the network "didn't realize the full potential of what they had in their grasp."

"We made a wonderful show in my opinion and we have a fan base that is ever expanding and not diminishing," he added.
