[QUOTE="Rove, post: 118970, member: 100"] I've always considered, after the death of Bobby, Dallas should have went down [I]that [/I]dark path. It was the opportunity to fracture relationships that were already fragile after the contest for Ewing Oil. I wished to see an even darker side to JR, cruel even. At the heart of this was Miss Ellie, desperate to maintain what little family there was after the death of Jock and now Bobby. Anything....ANYTHING, would have been better than the nonsense served up during its laughable last seasons. Right now I'm currently watching Season 6 (per DVD release) and the episodes where Miss Ellie has thoughts of breaking Jock's Will. It's just so damn good watching how the writers weave the characters into a compelling story that gels. Just one thing I've noted during my current time watching Dallas. As Larry and Patrick's influence is becoming greater behind the scenes with directing episodes I've noted a certain weakness in those episodes compared to when others direct. I sometimes wonder if it's best that actors do what their employed to do...act. [/QUOTE]
