[QUOTE="Jock Og, post: 395635, member: 17"] I suppose the newer characters after season 10 (DVD- 11) were 'suitable', as the show slid into the twilight years and the show became less gritty, into a more cartoon trajectory. If I had to choose a character to fit into the glory years that person would have been the old buffalo Carter McKay. I believe George Kennedy could've done well, as a more rounded heavyweight and of course a sidekick to Mr. Skeletor Jeremy Wendell. Perhaps he could have joined the cast; after the Ewing Oil ownership contest, which stemmed from Jock's last will and testament. George wasn't a bad actor.
