Message: <blockquote data-quote="ArchieLucasCarringtonEwing1989" data-source="post: 48382" data-attributes="member: 95">No I don't agree with the idea of Lucy being JR's daughter, if JR were to have had a lovechild they should've brought the James storyline forward by several seasons, I'm more superised that TPTB waited until season 13 before there was any possibility of JR having a lovechild from his younger days, the man would only have to think about a specific woman and she'd get pregnant!I'm trying to imagine Lucy in Knots Landing from its first season, and I can't envisage it somehow, maybe it's because we had "Lucy" type characters who were better written than Lucy herself in Knots.However maybe that could've been the solution to the problem at the same time, maybe the Knots writers could've turned Lucy into a much more rounded and fully developed character than the writers over in Dallas could, Lucy wasn't Ewing enough for me after season 1 (dvd) and that showed, she was more Southworth and Clements, she always seemed a lot closer to Miss Ellie than she was to Jock.There's an interesting speech she makes to Eddie in season 7 I think, she asks him to look around at Southfork, not once does she mention Ewing Oil, she loves Southfork, she really is her father's daughter.I think JR though he could mould her into a Ewing but gave up after a while, hence why they had a difficult relationship.Good point about Gary being JR's opposite, in a way Bobby  was more like JR and that's why Bobby was his favourite brother, because JR knew this fact.</blockquote>
