[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 343045, member: 57984"] Then there's the "1930" issue addressed in the miniseries (I haven't seen THE EARLY YEARS in ages -- what do they say about 1930??) and then there's the 1938 marriage date and the 1936 marriage date. Jock said that Ellie and Digger were "15 --- 16, tops!" Was that in 1930? Was Ellie born in 1915 as some tombstones in the show say? Or was she 16 when she married Jock in 1936 or 1938, allowing JR to be born in 1937 or 1939? They had JR and Sue Ellen, consistently for several years, married in 1971, but it was rolled back to "1970" by the time they re-married (shame on you, Paulsen!!) It's all so confusing. Because no one behind the camera can keep it consstent. So we wind up fanwank-correcting it to our preferences. But when the 17 guestrooms in Southfork have windows on each of its four walls, the possibilities are endless.
