I watched Dallas whem I was a kid and I love the new Dallas. J.R.’s character wasn’t on the show mych. I hope the show continues for several more seasons. Larry Hagman died while playing the role of one of the most famous. Characters in history. His presence will always be in the show.
I saw bring Pam Ewing back and Victoria Principal doesn’t want to do it then get someone elase.
My guess is that JR (recognizing that he is in failing health) is going to arrange his own death, thereby conferring some legal advantage to his son (an obscure detail in his will), and perhaps framing Ryland or Cliff Barnes in the process. Now that would be a masterpiece.
Didn’t JR refer to his plan to help Bobby get even with Ryland as his “masterpiece”? I am sure his death is not a random mugging.
Yeah, there’s no way they’ll make this a random mugging. It will be something amazing and elaborate. I’m betting the episode title is a big hint. Could JR himself have something to do with it? No idea how that would work, but I wouldn’t rule out anything with him.
If it has any connection to Pam, it will either be Christopher, unlikely, Cliff Barnes pays a hitman to murder him to make it look like a mugging or Katherine Wentworth is lurking in the shadows.
I don’t think it will actually be a mugging, I think that’ll be part of the mystery, with whoever killed him trying to set it up to look like a mugging.
Totally agree, sir. It will have looked like a random mugging, but obviously, this is J.R. Ewing we’re talking about. The likelihood of him going quietly into the night is nil.
Just a mugging? :/ That’s kind of a disappointing way to send off JR. I was hoping that someone that JR had been screwing over for a long time would be the one to do it. Someone with a grudge, but has never had the cajones to do it.
