[QUOTE="Miss Texas 1967, post: 197472, member: 36"] A few ideas: [LIST] [*]Anytime a character left town to get away from the drama in Dallas and was kept in the dark because the local newspapers didn't report on Dallas news, not impossible anymore but not as easy [*]There were a few instances where surveillance footage/electronic info could have come in handy to resolving a plot quicker, but that would have ruined the story. For example, Kristin/Katherine going into Ewing Oil would have likely been caught on camera in the lobby if not on the floor Ewing Oil's offices are located on and although at some point you'd assume they always needed a key to get into an office at night, there's likely a log somewhere in modern systems now that doesn't exist when a physical key is used [*]Not so much cellphones and internet but more the DNA testing kits that are widely available and/or the better DNA testing techniques science has developed since the 80s would have made the Pam/Cliff/Digger/Rebecca plot simpler, the JR/John Ross plot simpler, the JR/James plot clearer and the Jock/Ray plot more complicated.
