[QUOTE="Kenny Coyote, post: 206401, member: 102"] I don't see any value in doing that either. What I'd be interested in seeing is a show that runs from the mid 60s to 1978. They could use flashbacks to earlier times as well. The interesting story to be told is: "What led up to everything we saw"? How did Jock build Ewing Oil from the ground up into as big of a business as he did? How did Jock and Miss Ellie treat their sons in their formative years? What were the other influences that made JR and Bobby and Ray into the men they became? Was JR born the way he was or did certain things make him become that way? What was Bobby like in his football days and then his days as a road man for Ewing Oil, his "playboy days"? What were Pam and Cliff like in their formative years? What made Pam and Cliff turn into who they became? What was life like for the Ewing and Barnes families back in the 40s, 50s, 60s and early to mid 70s? We've already got all the stories we need from the time period of the late 70s and 80s. The intriguing thing is what we didn't see. Seeing Jock and Miss Ellie in the prime of their lives, seeing their sons as teenagers and young adults. Those are the things we haven't seen yet and stories set in that time are the intriguing thing that remains left to be told about the Ewing-Barnes saga. [/QUOTE]
