Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mustard" data-source="post: 389009" data-attributes="member: 46">Well, we do know. Larry got what he wanted. From then on, he had a major say in Dallas behind the scenes as well as in front of the camera. For a time, other actors on the show benefitted because of it, but in the later years, as the show's quality declined then Larry's salary from things like being an executive producer and the fee for appearing in each episode of Dallas just got far too bloated.In addition to how good he was as J.R. Ewing, I do think Larry was a very good director as well, certainly the best of the actors who directed on the series. He captured the big moments in the episodes that he directed very well.</blockquote>
