A cable network  just announced it is gearing up to breathe new life into the iconic '80s TV series "Dallas." Yes, the show has already enjoyed not one but two revivals  since it went off the air in 1991. And that's on top of a whopping 13 seasons  and a spin-off series.

No word yet on an air date, but the coming remake will introduce new characters -- played by a nighttime drama hunk  and a raven-haired action starlet -- alongside veterans J.R., Sue Ellen and Bobby.
