Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kaleid" data-source="post: 393470" data-attributes="member: 58460">One scene that stands out for me is when Ray is selling off the land from his bad deal and finds out how much of a loss he will be taking.  The facial expression he makes as he throws his little tantrum about wanting to get out - I think that is the exact moment I began disliking the character and never again found myself rooting for him. Not one scene in particular, but with Christopher and John Ross, there was a vast amount of time that those kids spent in the care of their nanny / Theresa and not just during the day but overnights as well, when the entire family was at the hospital or otherwise engaged.  It was especially noticeable in later seasons when Miss Ellie and Clayton were travelling, and Lucy was gone and Bobby and J.R. were away on business and conquests.  Of all the issues those kids had, it certainly merited at least a mention of how much they resented that setup, or how much they had bonded to a caretaker over their parents.</blockquote>
