[QUOTE="Laurie!, post: 316878, member: 2210"] If you're being honest, you should never say, "Dallas went out of their way to give everyone a fatal flaw but the Ewing's". Hahaha! That made me laugh!! Larry often said his wife Maj loved the script for Dallas because not one character had any redeeming qualities so he should audition. That may be a bit of a stretch because they all had some morals and definitely some had more than others. Every single Ewing had their own dose of crazy and their own obsession with the Barnes family too. As for the topic, I thought Cliff Barnes had the most believable character progression. I really understood how he became the way he was (minus the atrocious TNT hot mess). He started out brainwashed against the Ewing's but tried being a principled politician and like most politicians, became a self-serving weasel. Then he lost the one grounding person in his life (Pam) and realized his feud was silly, truly became friends with Bobby and grew way more as an adult than JR ever did. Pam was essential to Dallas. She was really the only link between the Barnes vs Ewing feud that drove the show for so many great seasons. [/QUOTE]
