The Romeo/Juliet story carried into the new generation.JR/Sue Ellen and Cliff/Afton as the new in-laws right from the start.And then you got Christopher (Is it because I'm adopted?) as the new villain who creates conflict/drama all over the place:Smart producers wouldn't have them fight only over Ewing Oil, but also over Barnes&Wentworth/Barnes Global - now between Pamela, Christopher and an offspring of Katherine (in best scenario JR's daughterwith Katherine). It was unnecessary to melt Ewing Oil & Barnes Wentworth into one. If you stay focused on the Ewings and the Barnes you can see all the offspring to be included and don't get tempted to include all these Rylands/Ramos no one ever heard of/cared about.I agree that the timing didn't help either. In 2012 it was too late. Ten years earlier would have been helpful.Or ten years later. I hardly watched/didn't like ABC's Dynasty. But I read that CW's Dynasty got picked up for a 5th season although the writing doesn't appear to be phenomenal (apparantly Krystle was recast several times, correct me if I'm wrong).As Dallas was an international phenomenan maybe a global streaming provider would have had more success (despite it's many flaws).</blockquote>
