[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 375470, member: 57984"] I guess I'd have to agree with the argument that it was Lucy -- I want her to return, open a youth club with Afton, and then buy out The Oil Baron's Club, so Lucy can develop bartender's ears and become more involved in "adult" business (no, not porn) which places her in the middle of the Dallas oil community. JR enthusiastically approves -- at first. However, I voted for Miss Ellie. Both Pam and Sue Ellen eventually came into their own, but Miss Ellie always seem squelched throughout the series, Katzman probably not wanting 'Mama' to be too assertive. Such that in the closing years, keeping her around and using her more because she was the only remaining original female character -- and the one representing the homefront -- Katzman instead used her less and then pushed her out entirely! I suppose Lucy was sidelined even more, but I notice it a lot more with Miss Ellie because there was more they could potentially do with her.
