[QUOTE="ArchieLucasCarringtonEwing1989, post: 135876, member: 95"] The thing is with DALLAS is that its first six years: 1978 to 1984, it could do no wrong, the series was at its strongest, the entire original cast (except of course Jim Davis) As some one said earlier the 1984-85 season was when the rot was starting to set in with repetitive storylines (seriously the Who shot Bobby story was basically a do over of who shot JR) the Donna Reed issue and a sense of lackluster and tiredness in general. The 1985-86 was the best opportunity to reboot the series, after a decade on the air big changes were needed and Bobby's death was necessary, but then along comes the dream scenario and it messes everything up. The 1986-87 season wasn't so much the renewed season, but more like a sunset on a once great series, it was based purely on nostalgia for the past on a slow decline downward. Pams departure was far more detrimental to the series than Bobby's was, and it didn't help that Pam's role in the series was gradually wound down to that of someone weaker than she should have been, I do wonder how Pak would have been handled had she stayed on the series beyond 1987.
