[QUOTE="pete lashmar, post: 198087, member: 606"] I have always believed that once Bobby had been killed off he should have remained so - his sudden return from the grave didn't so much harm the show, it caused a chain reaction that eventually led to it's demise. However - during the year that Bobby was dead we really didn't see the women of Dallas coming to the fore. The writers just threw in more tears, more depression etc, not one of the women became stronger, quite the opposite, they became even less significant than they had before. As for the Bobbby/JR double act - in my opinion it was always there, it was something that drove the show forward, but when Patrick returned the writers/producers turned that dial up from a 5 to a 10. When it had been on a 5 other characters got a look in andwere not cut out or over shadowed, but when it got turned up to 10 we ended up with virtually an entire new cast of nobodys who couldn't act their way out of a a paperbag - and so the show was over. But I'm pleased that Patrick was happy with his upgrade. :fist: [/QUOTE]
