You know the great Abby Cunningham from Knots Landing right? I like her better than JR.
Chrissie was screwed up before but they have made her evil. You know I used to think she was alright till a few months ago when she started the search for her real father.

ED

i think people have forgotten or simply dont know (due to age lol) just how well written and portrayed the character of j r ewing really was.

it wasnt only the excellent scripts, but the brilliant portrayal by larry hagman of this character. he was cold, ruthless, underhand, downright nasty, but larry portrayed him with a satisfying smirk as his plan works out, often at the expense of others, and seeing him take delight at others downfall was endearing!
