[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 335736, member: 57984"] I always want to see Rita Moreno in the role of Vanessa, for some reason, bringing an aspect of Latina Texas into the show other than the staff. James seemed like casting you might expect on FC or KNOTS. I'm okay with Priscilla. And Chris Atkins' molestation status seemed deliberate -- neither Sue Ellen nor Peter were competent people. I didn't like Shalane McCall until they admitted that Charlie was a bitch, and then I was fine with it. Lesley-Anne Down seemed shoe-horned in, but DALLAS was losing its identity by this point. I was fine with Cally and her casting. I liked Tracey and thought they should have done more with her and her relationship to Bobby. Casey was smarmy but fit in well enough. Margaret Michaels was also acceptable as the lure as long as we knew she probably wasn't really Pam (her one scene as Pam I've rationalized is Jeanne in a set-up). I always want a sexy black guy, perhaps a British one, as Don Lockwood, but Katzman would never have permitted it. I recall Ray Parker, Jr. saying he wanted to go on DALLAS and "be kissin' on Sue Ellen" but it wasn't going to happen. [ATTACH type="full" width="639px" alt="pamsbus.jpg"]40047[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
