Message: <blockquote data-quote="Luke_Krebbs_Ewing" data-source="post: 363850" data-attributes="member: 64">There are a few reasons why season eleven was the beginning of the end for Dallas.Cast wise this season is without both Susan Howard and more significantly Victoria Principal.  Once Pam was out of the show the series had to be taken in a slightly different direction creatively.This season has that ridiculous Mummy Pam storyline which is excruciating to watch!  Annabelle Schofield as Laurel Ellis was also excruciating to watch for similar reasons.Pairing Steve Kanaly's Ray with Priscilla Presley's version of Jenna Wade just didn't work.  There was no chemistry with the actors and both characters were bland and boring during this season as was Shalane McCall as Charlie who they decided to turn into an entitled spoilt brat.Leonard Katzman's creative decisions this season are unfortunately highly questionable which left the season rather lacklustre.  None of the storylines this season were in any way memorable with the possible exception of Jack Scalia as Nicholas Pierce.A shame that they squandered the opportunity to bring back the Ewing patriarch in season ten with Steve Forrest.  If they had done so that would've opened up so many storylines with Jock back on the show.  Dallas needed a lift in season eleven and Jock's return could've provided that.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
