[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 402294, member: 40536"] I remember reading somewhere that the writing goal for season 12 was to place JR in situations where his wealth and power couldn't help him. Maybe with better writing or better storylines it could have been better. However, I thought that over time, Jr became less capable in this series, made mistakes that he never would have made earlier in the show's history, and it was ultimately, a badly flawed directions. I have wondered that if Jim Davis hadn't passed, JR would have remained in charge of Ewing Oil, Bobby would become a senator or governor, with Cliff and Wendell playing both sides against the middle. The battle for Ewing Oil was good TV, but it never appealed to me that much. Totally unrealistic to split the company in two, and then expect both JR and Bobby to be co-presidents. This co-president structure is much more likely to fail, then succeed. [/QUOTE]
