Jack and Jamie

I feel Jamie is one of the most underrated characters on the show and had tons of potential. One big element (other than being a woman) that kept Lucy out of the action was the fact that she had no interest in the family business. Taking Jamie and making her a tomboy who KNOWS oil and can get down and dirty could've helped them develop a proper next generation. She could've helped bridge the gap instead of having say Michelle come out of nowhere and work at Ewing Oil. With Jamie you'd have young blood, but she'd still be a Ewing and have proper experience in the business.

People always complain about the later season cast, but in addition to the people they lost that they couldn't really control, they let go people that could've benefited them later on. I think Jamie is one of those people.
