Was not a diehard fan of the first-run original “Dallas” yet I saw many of the episodes. Bobby did die but the powers that be made the entire season of his death all a dream Pam had while he was in the shower.

IMHO the character of Bobby always was and still is a pansy liberal fantasy of how we Texans should really be in the ‘real’ East/West Coast elites’ world that only flies over us unwashed, political incorrect common folk—

Believe Bobby's new wife, Ann, is only new to the reboot and BTW while she says she never misses with her shotgun, she sure did, letting the perp get away when she had the dead drop on him.

And finally, by Googling to Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kristin_Shepard ) to refresh my memory, I found “Kristin... was found drowned in the Southfork Ranch swimming pool, after having overdosed on drugs and hitting her head after losing consciousness and falling over the railing of the upper balcony. After Kristin's death, it was learned that her husband, Jeff Faraday, and not J.R., was the father of her child, who had become Bobby and Pam's adopted son, Christopher Ewing. Kristin had miscarried the child she had conceived with JR.”

Now that I have done my early morning chore, I can get on to today's... heavy drinking--

Well, Bendy, it is the only way to start... or end a day!

I didn't know much about Texas back in the 1970's/1980's but your statement above seems pretty correct to me now. Bobby seems kind of like an Austin liberal elite - first thing I thought of while watching the new show last week.

... After Kristin's death, it was learned that her husband, Jeff Faraday, and not J.R., was the father of her child, who had become Bobby and Pam's adopted son, Christopher Ewing. Kristin had miscarried the child she had conceived with JR.”

Whoa, Christopher Ewing's biological parents are Kristin Shepard and Jeff Faraday? What happened to Jeff Faraday? (I don't remember him at all, to be honest)
