[QUOTE="Mustard, post: 299753, member: 46"] Gary wouldn't be interested in oil fights, or being a rival to J.R. He's not Bobby. The first 3 seasons of Knots Landing, a lot of the show is around the Cul-de-sac (Seaview Circle) and the nearby area, focusing on the lives of the people in 4 families (Ewings, Fairgates, Averys and Wards), while Gary doesn't have that much money and works at Knots Landing Motors with owner and mechanic Sid Fairgate, before then going into business with Sid's sister and Gary's future wife, Abby. Season 4 of Knots Landing is when Gary comes into the money left to him in his father's estate, and the business plans in the show start getting richer, although seldom to Dallas levels, until near the end when you have international gangsters involved. Gary and Valene would never have grown as people in Dallas the way they did in Los Angeles. Even during those long years of Knots Landing when they weren't together as a couple (Seasons 4-11), they always teased a reunion which took years, and they were becoming better characters. I also believe their love story is even better than Bobby and Pam's, which speaks volumes, because Bobby and Pam were excellent together. I firmly believe you have to see all of Knots Landing to get the full story of the Ewings. And unlike Bobby and Pam, Gary and Val do get a happy ending. [/QUOTE]
