[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 337756, member: 57984"] One of the good things about the nuDALLAS continuation show was that JR seemed genuinely ominous again... Having said that, I'm not one who minded JR becoming kind of exhausted or "wimpier" in the last couple of seasons of the original series, because it made some sense at the time: he'd lost a lot and was burned out a bit on his own malice, especially when it's backfired repeatedly. It's a slice of life, and I wasn't the kind of fan who demanded JR Ewing be an impervious, invulnerable metaphor for Beelzebub 24/7. What I minded was the show around him deteriorating, too.
