[QUOTE="Julia's Gun, post: 340360, member: 987"] Re-watching the dream season again, and I'm really loathing Matt Cantrell. I hate how he was "re-introduced" by having practically every member of the main cast drooling over him as some long lost great friend of Bobby that we've never heard of. Even poor Miss Ellie had to say "Matt, great to see you again" as if they've been freinds for years, but this silly paper-thin character has just been created by writers who have already run out of ideas. Why insult the viewer's intelligence by making us believe he was Bobby's great friend who he had invested in, but all had happened off screen. Yes he is deceiving Pam with JR, but I hate the way his macho ego is forced upon us mid-season and then dominates at the expense of poor bi-sexual Jack, who Larry and Lenny Katzman obviously didn't like and decide to sideline. Jack and Jenna should have become an item, Pam and JR working together at Ewing oil should have been the main storyline of the season, and Matt Cantrell - along with Angelica Nero (although I love Babs Carrera) - should never even have existed. This is why the dream season failed...... It was okay up until episode 15. Then it all just falls apart.... [/QUOTE]
