[QUOTE="the-lost-son, post: 333917, member: 672"] Great thread. I started a similar one last year: [URL unfurl="true"]http://tellytalk.net/threads/gary-ewing-in-dallas.10661/[/URL] I haven't watched Knots landing (except a few episodes) due to lack of DVDs and no streaming available. I often ponder what Dallas would have been like with Gary on board on a fulltime basis. If Dallas hadn't been that successful, a spin-off named KL wouldn't have materialised. In my opinion it's a given that Gary (and Val) would have returned then. It would have been great to explore the relationships between Gary and his parents or Lucy. Only after they launched KL Ray became the 4th son. I wonder where they intended to go with the Ray/Lucy love affair in the 1st place. As Gary was described as an alcoholic from the start it's a given that soaps pick that up again. I wonder if SueEllen had remained the brunette on the couch. By the way I somehow liked the scenario of the miniseries where each Ewing couple had a "tiny home". "Unfortunately" Knots landing was so successful that it outlasted its mother series. Gary&Val would have always been a great addition to Dallas, especially after Bobby died or Pam left. It feels like a relaunch which could have worked. Another brother butting heads with JR who hates his sister-in-law. Especially in the later years, there could have been some great storylines for Lucy and Miss Ellie who were in desperate need for it. [/QUOTE]
