[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 406203, member: 40536"] Respectfully disagree. Without Bobby, the dynamics of the show, and the characters' interactions had far less impact. If PD had not returned, and the recast of Jock was completed, there might have been a different result, The dream season was the start of Dallas decline, although series 10 was still Dallas, until Susan Howard and VP departed, and the Ray/Jenna pairing lacked impact The ratings points declined from 20.97 million in series 8 to 18.8 million is series 9, and the rank from #2 to #6. Dallas would never again reach 20 million or the top 10. Interestingly, series 6 (Battle for Ewing Oil) had even lower rating points than series 7 While series 7 was only slightly higher than series 8 While series 10 declined slightly, it would have declined much more, in all likelihood, without PD/Bobby Series Rating Points Rank 6 20.5 2 7 21.5 1 8 20.97 2 9 18.8 6 10 18.6 11 Source: [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dallas_(1978_TV_series)_episodes[/URL] [/QUOTE]
