[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 437936, member: 57984"] Yes, sidelining Pam once she joined Ewing Oil was the most egregious error that occurred after Bobby "died." Katzman had no control that season, but he did create the Angelica Nero character -- and there have been rumblings over the years that he did so in order to steal Pam's thunder at Ewing Oil. And that theory is plausible. Katzman didn't want core female family members to be too tough. And having Pam and J.R. duke it out in the office -- although that would have been the central fight of the entire DALLAS series -- was just not something Lennie was interested in. In any event, we were robbed. Oh, yes, Paulsen was absolutely gone (having taken over the '85/86 season of KNOTS, where he ran into a [I]different[/I] on-set political dynamic). He returned to DALLAS when Patrick Duffy and Katzman did. And, ever the company man, Paulsen always publicly defends the use of the dream scenario with which Bobby was revived, I know damned well that Paulsen would never have used it had he been running the show solely (David Jacobs has also said he would've used a different explanation as well).
