Should Charlie have become pregnant?

I think most of us would agree that the whole "Ray and Jenna wildly overreact at Charlie's milquetoast teenage hijinks" thing was excruciating to sit through... but what if they'd bumped it up a couple of notches and had Randy actually get Charlie pregnant? Now that's *legitimate* drama!

Imagine the excitement! How would they handle the logistics? Surely Charlie would keep the child, right?

Would they all live together in the Krebbs mansion like a new Southfork? Are Babies Lucas and Bradley (named for the dynamic Andy and the obscure young actor who plays Randy) brothers or cousins or uncle and nephew?

Ray and Randy bonding while shirtlessly wallpapering the hideously tacky double nursery? Jenna and Charlie exploding into histrionics over diaper-changing technique?

Where does Bobby fit in? What happens when Donna visits with Margaret? Who has first dibs on Darius?

Can JR manipulate the situation to his advantage?

(I will now voluntarily check myself into Fletcher Sanitarium)

Yeah if the character had gotten pregnant that would've had Charlie, Jenna and Randy on the show for all eternity!

I don't think I could've watched that, not unless they made her pregnant specifically to write her out! She and Randy could've got married off screen when Ray and Jenna leave for Switzerland to run Krebbs Kuckoo Klocks!! :)

Oh, God yes, Charlie would spawn like Satan swimming up the Southfork River. And, as biblical fate decreed, take over the ranch and Ewing Oil.

Sure, we'd all hate her, but we're supposed to. Another heretical Virgo at the helm. Like nuPam on nuDALLAS.

This is just contrary attention seeking.

Snarky Oracly needs to be banned from this forum more than Hitler. I will start my campaign to get him banned next Tuesday if I can be bothered.

the sheer emotion, or lack thereof, that this thread has spawned had me fairly convinced that I’m on to something with this idea!

Not unless you believe that Andy Bradley is the Father of Lucy's baby!?!

And is that also documented in volume two of The Under-utilisation of the Dynamic Andy Bradley or is it in volume three?

It's not in volume one because I've finished reading that one. :)

Andy was usually quite faithful to his lovely wife Linda, other than a few slip-ups here and there and on various special and somewhat special occasions and other high-stress situations like holidays and weekends and business meetings and deals and office days and such.

I’m pretty sure it was actually Randy who fathered the child. It’s just general respect for a fine independent oilman that led to the naming! (I think..)

Charlie will be the cruelest ruler of Ewing OIl, the most imperious queen of Southfork Ranch. Her weak-bitch husband Randy pours drinks over the heads of their children at the dining table, leading Charlie to tell him he disgusts her and divorces him in a bitter proceeding which goes on for years.

That series should begin right about now.
