I'm no defender of CC, but she wrote the great send-off of JR and she accepted her mistake when SueEllen's role was increased after the first few episodes.(On the other hand we got severe blunders like killing off Christopher, ignoring the show's rich history, but giving us 80s comebacks with alumnis from "Who is the boss" or "Fall Guy".)But foremost Dallas belonged to the 80s and not in the 21st century. Realistically a family with such wealth would behave like the Logans in Succession and that's sth. I don't want the Ewings to be associated with, that's dysfunctional on another level. But the Ewings always stuck together when needed (including in TNT S2).Thinking about it Dallas was more kind of 60s - with the family meeting for dinner at 6 or sons calling their father Sir and their mother Miss.</blockquote>
