[QUOTE="CeeCee72, post: 342047, member: 5055"] Generally, I don't like re-casts under any situation. When an actor is good at their job, they become so identified with the character that recasting is often disastrous. Jim Davis WAS Jock Ewing. Period. I think recasting him would have been just a jarring and unpopular as when Dallas recast Miss Ellie. Plus, as others have pointed out, dealing with Jock's death and his will have us the best Dallas episodes we ever got. [/QUOTE]
