[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 316851, member: 19949"] I've always wondered if Jack's personality would have been different if Bobby hadn't died, or if another actor who could visually resemble Jamie would have been hired. Were Jamie and Jack created just because Bobby's end was near and writers wanted to expand the Ewing family? I always felt that PD's departure came as a surprise to the writers. Maybe they had seen it just as a threat to get more money next season and never thought he would actually leave. Losing two original cast members at once was risky. Perhaps Lucy could have stayed (at least for one more season) if PD's departure was a long time coming. It always seemed to me that Lucy's end was certain in the writing room before they had to decide what to do about Bobby. [/QUOTE]
