If writers are simply going to regurgitate stories then viewers will simply view it as more of the same. Changes though need to be thoughtful and subtle. Dallas is a good example how changes impact viewership...and I'm not just talking about what was presented on screen. Changes behind the scenes inevitably altered the tone of Dallas which spiraled into sub-par stories, quality, viewers and the inevitable...."Not to be renewed." I've always considered the death of Bobby in Swan Song was the reset button Dallas needed. I was looking forward to the following season to witness the thrilling ride the writers had in store for us. Sadly it was not to be.</blockquote>
