[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 331777, member: 57984"] But we don't know that that's what happened. Peter Dunne may have intended Ben to be Jock, while Katzman/Paulsen supposedly never intended Wes to be Jock. Again, the ambivalence made the plot work. Although the idea of Stivers/Parmalee turning out [I][B]to actually be[/B][/I] Jock in a concretely verfiable way [I][B]sounds[/B][/I] intriguing, I think it remains intriguing [B][I]specifically because[/I][/B] they [B][I]didn't[/I][/B] do it. Likewise, Jeanne O'Brian worked better as a story arc when we [I][B]only thought [/B][/I]she might be Pam. Some mysteries are more effective when they remain unsolved. A certain degree of fanwanking is good for the spleen, as long as it's not too much... If you've ever read my posts on fixing DYNASTY, you'd know how damaging it can all get.
