[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 443616, member: 19949"] I feel that if Kimberly Foster—sporting the exact same look she had on Dallas—had joined hit shows of that era like L.A. Law or Twin Peaks, she would have become a star; unfortunately, by season 13 of Dallas, that just wasn't in the cards. What I liked about Michelle was that she didn't turn into the evil sister—like we saw with Kristin and Katherine—but instead went her own way. The last two seasons would likely have been even harder to watch without Michelle. It was a good move to bring Marilee back after a hiatus of more than a season, but nothing really came of it. At least she got to stay alive—unlike poor Jordan Lee. I found Miss Ellie’s first mystery far less interesting than the second one involving Lady Jessica. Regarding the first mystery, I question the point of it. None of the Goldmans came to Dallas; why wasn't there a nice young man among them who could have served as a love interest for the underused Lucy? The storyline seemed to exist solely to further glorify Jock's reputation. Oddly enough, what bothered me most about season 13's casting was Leslie Bevis as Diana Farrington. It had always been important for Dallas that J.R. have particularly attractive mistresses, but she simply lacked any charisma whatsoever. [/QUOTE]
