In the 13 year run of the TV series Dallas (1978) this is the only time Pamela Barnes Ewing is not played by regular Victoria Principal. She is here played by Margaret Michaels, who later played lookalike Realtor Jeanne O'Brien, with whom Bobby Ewing had a brief fling.
The title is based upon the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel (1956). The original stage production of "Carousel" opened at the Majestic Theatre in New York on April 19, 1945 and ran for 890 performances (a little over two years).
Charlene Tilton is back in the opening credits and Sheree J. Wilson has been added to the opening credits.
