Another Great Episode from the 4th Season

Miss Ellie Reading out how much Voting Shares everyone got-I must say i'm suprised Jock gave Miss Ellie Voting Shares as she was a woman and his sexist remarks (Remember what he said about Women in Bedrooms and Boardrooms). Seeing J.R's Face was hilarious.

Loved the Ending at the Football/Soccer Stdium with J.R and Lusty

But another Great Episode

Loved the episode, and loved how Ellie became the majority shareholder. It would have been nicer had Gary kept his shares.

[SELFE]

Great episode.

[Benny JR]

I watched this from my DVD set of season 5 [4] about a week ago, it was another great episode. They just keep on coming.

[Barbara Fan]

great episode, loved the reaading of the voting shares (BBG rocks!) and the scene at the end was brilliant, Poor ol Dusty, who isnt so lusty now!!

theres only one man at the SC who can give Sue Ellen what she wants, and it sure as hell aint you!!

[Ray&Donna]

That scene at the Cotton Bowl is classic...I can't imagine how difficult it was to orchestrate the whole thing, but it turned out great

[snuggletiger]

I loved the overhead shot of JR and Dusty walking across the field to meet each other, although I would love to have seen JR smack Dusty after the face slap. And JR taunting Dusty like a kid was classic.

[Sugar&Slick]

Dusty slapping JR.. classic.

A quotation from this eppy is my signature

"I've seen your daddy..maybe she's staying with you because she ISN'T going without it"

[Crockett3663]

What I thought was ironic was Pam's conversation with her shrink. In it she chastises her mother for abandoning her kids, which is EXACTLY what Pam herself did only a few years later. I love Pam, but that was awfully hypocritical.

[KillerBob]

Finally we get to see Valene and Gary again!

[Benny JR]

I'll bet ''Knots Landing'' fans will love this episode, especially sice Gary and Val appear.

[Sgt. McSween]

I loved the overhead shot of JR and Dusty walking across the field to meet each other, although I would love to have seen JR smack Dusty after the face slap.

There was no need for JR to physically retaliate. Why beat down on a man
whos already been broken?

[carl0635]

yea i think that j.r.s words hurt dusty more than that slap. also im so tired of pam with her crazyness. she never exhibited any behavior to lead u to belive it was because her mother left her that she was having a break down. or the baby thing. hell she knew 3 yrs ago that she couldnt have a kid. quit with the pity me crap. get some patience and wait for 18 months and u can have a kid thru adoption.
