[QUOTE="Billy Wall, post: 390188, member: 2943"] In case you haven't seen this series, it's a true story about two people in Wylie, Texas (roughly 8 miles from Southfork) that had an affair that ended up in murder. But the scene that got me thinking of Dallas was the a scene when the defendants lawyer told ("""""""") that "I'm putting you on the stand because people down here, people are more likely to forgive murder than adultery." That makes me wonder, in a bible carrying state like Texas, in the 70's no less, why were JR's actions accepted? I know it made for good TV, but in a real scenario, there's no way Jock and Miss Ellie would allow JR to be who he was. Speaking of Love and Death, I highly recommend it and it ironically took place just when Dallas was taking off, between 1978-1980. This was probably front page in the newspaper that the Ewing's read everyday. Lol [/QUOTE]
