VP's exit seems like a milestone in Dallas' history. Season 10 (DVD11) was very weak and it's easy to blame the intact cast for that.Although I was sad to watch her leave, I don't think her staying would have saved the series.The writing just got worse, the story had been told.I think it' s safe to assume that the cast was on good terms. Rivalries like in the casts of Dynasty or Falcon Crest didn't happen. Every employee can sympathize the desire to get a change after 9 years. I don't think there is any more to it.</blockquote>
