[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 445222, member: 19949"] In a February 1985 TV Guide article, David Jacobs and Esther Shapiro were asked what they would do differently with each other's shows. [ATTACH type="full"]59734[/ATTACH] While Esther Shapiro primarily advocated giving the women on Dallas much more power, David Jacobs saw weaknesses in Dynasty—weaknesses that would indeed later cause ratings problems. "They are adding too many people", Jacobs complained regarding Dynasty. "What has to happen to Dynasty at some point is that it has to focus on the story... Dallas is about money, while Dynasty is about things money can buy." Jacobs argued that the Dynasty characters were too wealthy for the audience to care about them. Should Esther Shapiro have taken David Jacobs' comments to heart, or was it good that she stayed true to her vision? [/QUOTE]
