Were the women really just decorations in the original DALLAS?

[QUOTE="the-lost-son, post: 298379, member: 672"] I listen/read many interviews of the female cast indeed that woman were underpresented in Dallas. But - even if it was hardly addressed - I always believed this to be true for behind-the-scenes only. Dallas women were strong and stood their ground even against their husband's. Sure they had their suffering parts to play, but so did the men. So I don't think any storylines contributed anything to that feeling. Behind the scenes it's a different story and women probably did not feel appreciated as men. BBG let go over a salary dispute, Linda Gray fired for wanting to direct an episode, VP CT SH all let go and the men still there. Show business is tough and I'm pretty sure they all had to fight many battles many hurdles to get there, especially during the 80s and before. [/QUOTE]
