[QUOTE="CeeCee72, post: 339175, member: 5055"] I get that those things added dimension to the character. But honestly, two of them really bothered me. The "play fair with family" thing. JR of the early years would have taken as much advantage of Bobby's illness as he possibly could. JR never cared to "play fair" with Bobby before, so it seemed out of character. But the one that really got under my skin was him letting Sue Ellen and Jamie push him around. I realize he was trying to stay on Sue Ellen's good side, but the JR I knew and loved would have never let her henpeck him into accepting Jamie at Ewing Oil. He would have told her to stay out of his business and then bought her a fur coat or a diamond necklace or something to placate her. [/QUOTE]
