[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 439055, member: 40536"] The finale was possibly the best series finale ever. I suppose in a way, the "Dallas" dream as an inspiration should be given some credibility for how it has influenced similar shows. "St Elsewhere" as a dream was less credible. It just made no sense in context, wheras "Newhart" was clever and Suzanne Pleshette's appearance was a complete surprise. The "Dallas" dream season could probably be defended insofar as it kept the series in production longer, and would have been canceled sooner. Sadly, the later seasons were just not that good anyway. There was a steady decline after season 8. After PD departed, even for a season, there was just no rebounding, although season 10 was still fairly good [/QUOTE]
