[QUOTE="JROG, post: 41476, member: 43"] Season 3 begins and it improves even more on the improved Season 2. I'm most excited in rewatching Alan Beam and Miss Ellie's cancer story, not really remembering much at all about any of it. The neurofibromatosis angle is brilliant but, like the Kit Mainwaring story, sets up Pamela for her worst, baby-crazy, badly acted, period. Suddenly, Bobby is MUCH more condescending and annoying when it comes to dealing with his wife than he has ever been before. The fairytale Romeo & Juliet marriage is no more, because the writers now clearly side with Bobby, no matter what. There's SO much exterior shooting in the first 3 episodes. The light is almost blinding and it's very windy -- you can just [I]feel[/I] how hot it is. Larry Hagman comes back from the break noticeably heavier -- is it bloating from substance abuse, a medical issue, or a star who let himself go? The show itself notices, and has Jock make fun of J.R. for being fat! You can't see that happening later on. I love how they foreshadow the Amanda story by sending the Ewings to watch a play about an ex-wife that comes back for revenge. Of course, I was disappointed than didn't actually come to be, but let's see how I feel about it this time around. Sue Ellen's post-partum depression is the absolute highlight so far. And, poor John Ross: Drama from the very beginning! [/QUOTE]
