[QUOTE="Grangehill1, post: 160185, member: 833"] I’ve said it before. The problem was the cliffhanger with Bobby in the shower. Leonard Katzman returned to the show at the end of season 9 (dvd) and in a rush to get a good cliffhanger out somebody must have said let’s stick Bobby in the shower (and then next season say it was all a dream.) great! Brilliant! What an amazing cliffhanger. Indeed if Dallas would have ended with Bobby in the shower it would probably have been one of the greatest ever endings to a tv show. But If they’d have waited. Cut the shower scene and just waited after completion of season 9 and the cliffhangers would have ended with sue ellen being blown up or/and mark being found dead - if they’d have waited it would have given the team some breathing space to think about how to bring Patrick back. A bit more time at least. Bobby could have been reintroduced slowly at the beginning of season 10. The shower scene must have been thought up so quickly - that was the problem that boxed them into the dream resolution. And even if they suddenly had a rethink after it had transmitted, no other explanation to bring Bobby back (evil twin, woke again at the hospital morgue and been in hiding) would have worked because they’d shot themselves in the foot with the shower scene.
