[QUOTE="Lastkidpicked, post: 285413, member: 237"] Welcome to the boards, [USER=4278]@harry96[/USER] There is a fun and long term storyline they hinted at toward the end of the series. Bobby started making comments about how much fun it would be to start over in the oil business. I mean really start over. Imagine watching him and Pam on the road, going to diners and cattle auctions, learning who the property owners are in the small towns where they want to drill. Imagine Pam and Bobby meeting with land owners to secure leases on their properties. And they could be very creative. Think about this juxtaposition (and I hope this makes [USER=22]@James from London[/USER] proud, as he has done productions like this): We see J.R Ewing, in his expensive suit and Stetson, ushering a client into a fancy restaurant. They sit down to discuss business over an expensive lunch. Cut to Bobby and Pam, in a run down diner, sitting down with a local landowner. They shake hands warmly and the landowner suggests the diablo sandwich and Dr. Pepper. They pass around a basket of fries as they discuss the weather and the history of the town. Pam and Bobby allow the landowner to do most of the talking. Back to J.R. and his client in the fancy restaurant. They are poring over papers and saying, "I'll give this to my accountants for review." And, "I'll give this to my lawyers for approval" and putting papers into expensive suitcases to bring back for the accountants and lawyers. Cut back to Pam and Bobby closing a deal with the landowner. They shake hands firmly to seal the deal. It could be fun to watch the different ways of doing business side by side. [/QUOTE]
