This second series is facing a huge challenge: how to give JR a decent send-off while still making the show seem viable. Despite advancing years, ill health and reduced screen time, Larry Hagman (above right) was always the main reason for watching this revival, so his passing could cause a problem.
He does feature in the first six episodes of this latest run, so there’s thankfully a decent chunk of JR left to go. But what will happen following his on-screen death? We are promised Dallas characters of the past to be in town for the funeral, so let’s start the speculation now — Sly the secretary? Donna Krebbs? Or maybe, just maybe, Pam?
