[QUOTE="Toni, post: 439077, member: 82"] I have a bad feeling about this... (yes, I´m a Warsie...too) and it´s that, in case Don had stayed on, the show would have been canceled. Lorimar and CBS had Falcon Crest by then, with a stronger cast and considerable originality, and Flamingo had just started, with glossy Fairchild as the main lead. It wouldn´t have been a surprise (to me) if they had axed Knots. Maybe with Abby and Gary hitting the road back to Dallas? Let´s be honest: some of Season 3´s self-contained episodes were rather atrocious, and some of the subplots, not interesting at all. It was the creativity injection they put it in Season 4 what gave life to the show for 10 more years. Bitchier Abby, stronger Val, Karen meeting the right man for her in Mack, someone to hate to the max (Diana!), etc. That was the reason the show went to stratosphere for audience and critics after that. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
