[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 439405, member: 19949"] The writers really went out of their way to make the audience feel as little sympathy as possible for Jamie. The most cruel thing they did was kill her off, even though the writers already knew Ewing Oil would be history by the end of the season. Jamie's death was therefore completely pointless in the long run. What I understood least about Jamie's personality was her friendship with Sue Ellen. Apparently, this forced friendship was solely about creating conflict between JR and Sue Ellen, but if they wanted to develop Jamie into a character with a future in the show (especially if original characters would leave Dallas), they should have made her friends with Lucy if they wanted a bitchy Jamie, or friends with Donna if they wanted a more upright Jamie. Both would have been more interesting than seeing Sue Ellen and Jamie as BFFs. [/QUOTE]
