Actors Who Died Recently as Dallas Characters

[Ray_Krebbs]

We have lost many great actors and actresses in this year, especially this month. Are there any you could have seen in Dallas? If so, what would be their roles? I could see Catherine O'Hara as Jeremy Wendell's niece who obtains his shares in Westar following his arrest and becomes the new villain in the later years. I could see her character as dark with a comedic edge and playing well against Hagman. In one of my Dallas alternate universe fanfics, Dolly Parton was Carter McKay's evil ex-wife who winds up marrying Jock. In that universe, Jock did not die, but he and Miss Ellie divorced over Takapa. Tim Curry could have played a dark and psychotic character who becomes involved with Sue Ellen, but his true character does not manifest itself till later.

Hayden Panatierre could have played Charlie Wade or whoever the sister that John Ross teased in New Dallas

Sam Neill definitely could have played a Texas oilman.

Perhaps Shelley Fabares could have appeared as Garrison Southworth's daughter when Donna Reed was playing the role of Miss Ellie.

Since some actors appeared in different roles in both Dallas and Knots Landing, I would have liked it if Joanna Pettet had shown up as Julie Grey's younger sister.

Vincent Pastore could have played a relative of Nicholas Pearce.

Dolly as Donna's longlost sister.
Curry as Angelica's brother fron hell.
Hayden as Lucy's cheerleader frenemy.
Neill as McKay's exiled son

How about Dolly as Sue Ellen's previously unknown white trash, trailer park sister? Sue Ellen's dad never died, just left that psycho Patricia, met a waitress or bartender in a small Texas town and had Dolly.
