I guess that's why he ended up fired/"disappeared."

The writers were biased in favor of Blake.

He probably was the stepbrother from Denver to Texas' infamous Scotty Demarest, the "best lawyer to never win a case".

Why do they recast Steven? And then apparently back again for the reunion episodes.

Because they wanted to. They'll recast all four grown Carrington children eventually.
The producers were pimps, smackin' up their botches, mowin' down their hos in the Moldavian massacre... That's how it struck me then; that's how it strikes me now.

Got to say … I do not like Steven II one bit. And he gets way too much screen time.

Who are “all four”? Adam, Fallon, Steven, and? Am I missing one or do they get introduced post Season 3?

Yes, there's a fourth who comes in for Season 5. Then they recast her for Season 7.
They will call her "Amanda."

So the Season 3 finale was basically a ripoff of The Who Shot JR episode. I was thinking it the entire time. Alexis was over the top evil in this episode so any number of people have a motive to kill her: the butler, the Congressman, Mark, Adam, I’m probably missing a couple.
No spoilers please… I haven’t read ahead to see who set the fire. The congressman seems too easy. Minor character that can easily be written out. I know Joseph doesn’t make it too much longer in the show so I’ll guess it’s him…

Also in Season 4 premiere I still hate Steven II. Such a tough talker. It’s like they are acting in different universes when he’s on screen with John Forsythe.
I wish they would have accommodated Steven I for whatever his gripes were.
What are the consensus on Steven II vs Steven I? And Fallon II vs Fallon I?

Generally speaking, everybody prefers the originals. Although Fallon II *does* get better. And interestingly, from the little I know, Jack Coleman (Steven II) would go on to have a much more successful career than Al Corley (Steven I). Coleman would attrtibute his success to everything John Forsythe taught him.

Al Corley wanted out after Season 2. It seems that Steven's trajectory that season was different from what he had been told.
Corley was back for the Reunion because Coleman was unavailable (Coleman was recording a TV film, I believe "Children of the Bride"). Also, Steven in the Reunion has a positive gay ending. Corley had wanted to play a gay character, while Coleman always had certain issues with it at the time.

Corley played Steven as thoughtful, intelligent and sensitive. Coleman played Steven as much more aggressive, direct and confrontational.
A bit divided, but I think most prefer Steven I.
Fallon I by some way. Season 9 was much better for Fallon 2 though, acting more like the best Fallon from Seasons 1-2.

I initially liked Fallon quite a bit but she lost steam after she got pregnant and is kind of in need of a reboot.
I thought she was who Lucy Ewing should have been, but right now she is turning into who Lucy ended up turning into.
