Another Dallas fan who saw my 2 posts and questions from this group (
"Would Ewing Oil Have Went Bankrupt" and "What did Ben Stivers do to
Clayton" ), e-mailed me yesterday and told me that they found out some
information about what was suppose to happen in Season 9, if Season 8
hadn't been a dream.
Here is what they sent me:
"Look at what I found for you. If season 8 was never a dream, here is
what would have happened in season 9 with no return of Bobby. Its pretty
interesting, let me know what you think":
=A0
What was originally intended for the season 8 cliffhanger? What was the
plan if Bobby had not returned?
1) Mark Graison was due to be killed off leaving Pam more powerful then
ever and vow to destroy J.R. For the season 8 cliffhanger, Pam was
suppose to find Mark dead in the shower.
2) Jack would of been Pam's comforter resulting in more Jenna/Pam
confrontations. Jack and Pam would have become an item and the new hot
passionate couple, deeply in love with one another. .
3) Jamie would of been killed in the car explosion, Cliff would then
blame J.R for Jamie's death and again refuel the feud, this time backed
by Pamela.
4) Sue Ellen would be paralyzed and blame J.R. Cliff would also blame
J.R. for what happened to the now paralyzed Sue Ellen.
5) Ben Stivers WOULD of turned out to actually be Jock and take away
Ewing Oil from J.R.
What other alternatives were discussed to bring Bobby back?
They filmed several alternatives including a Bobby evil twin and Bobby
being away to recover for a season.
Were any clues give after the 1986 cliffhanger aired to how Bobby would
return?
Yes, Patrick Duffy said he would give one clue and that was there had
been a similar incident during that last season. Of course he was
referring to Sue Ellen's nightmare over the John Ross custody battle
where she awoke screaming, so a dream within a dream.
Did the actors agree with the `dream` idea?
Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray have continually stuck up for
the idea, Ken Kercheval on the other hand has never hidden the fact of
how unhappy he was over it.
