It would have been great."Unfortunately" Dallas was firing on all cylinders during S4-6 (DVD 5-7). I'll agree with Katzman who during the late 80s said that they wouldn't have used so much material if they had known they'd last that long.All these insinuated storylines which somehow didn't materialize (obviously partly at least due to time restrictions.)e.g. Sue Ellen/Clayton romanceRebecca/Clayton romanceHolly Harwood and Bobby...It's amazing how much they squeezed into +/- 30 episodes/season at that time. If you watch the episode Bobby gets shot, there is so much happening, it's unfortunate but understandable that they chose not to show storylines and scenes like the wedding of one of it's most central characters (Miss Ellie) for example.Rebecca had potential for at least another year, the same goes for Lady Jessica, but they needed her out of the picture for Katherine to start running wild.</blockquote>
