[QUOTE="Kenny Coyote, post: 222814, member: 102"] Their builds were nothing alike. Suppose they do that and according to your story, because Wes brings irrefutable proof that he is Jock. Everyone who doubted him would then feel terribl and apologize profusely and say how wonderful it is to find out their beloved father is alive and well. Then the show is stuck with an actor who the audience doesn't associate with Jock, just like they didn't think of Donna Reed as Miss Ellie. The fake Miss Ellie failed! Nobody liked that because they had already associated a specific actress with Miss Ellie. They already associated Jim Davis with Jock, so again, it won't work. I've read that daytime soap operas do that sort of thing all the time because their audience tolerates it. Daytime soap opera compared to a primetime drama is like minor league baseball compared to Major League Baseball. At the top level of anything, the audience's standards are set a lot higher. [/QUOTE]
