[QUOTE="Luke_Krebbs_Ewing, post: 320794, member: 64"] They made him more likeable during the dream season. He and Sue Ellen actually came to an understanding during their marriage. They became a proper couple. The only thing wrong with that is it's conflict between characters which makes for good drama. That had to be reversed in season ten. Making JR likeable whilst a good idea is no good unless he's being a bad ass to other characters, which to a certain extent he was. However when the timeline got reversed in season ten when Katzman returned, he managed to give the proper balance in the character as regards being good & evil. The dream season isn't a bad season but I feel that Bobby's resurrection from the dead with hindsight actually ruined the popularity of Dallas in the long term. If only they had stuck with the reveal that Ben Stivers was Jock Ewing in the original season nine cliff hanger. :) [/QUOTE]
