Here we have it -- the conclusion of the ""Dallas"" TV series (although, thankfully, TV movies would follow). In this two-part episode, J.R. is on the brink of despair, holding a gun to his own head, when he's visited by an other-worldly type named Adam. He takes a mystical journey in the ""It's a Wonderful Life"" slant and finds out what the lives of those around him would have been like had there never been a J.R. Ewing. With a wonderful sense of humor, the writers give us a world where Gary Ewing is a successful lawyer, Cliff Barnes is vice-president of the United States (!), Cally Harper is a battered wife, Bobby Ewing is a wandering loser, Sue Ellen Shepard is a thriving actress, and the other Ewing son is named Jason -- and is a weasley little user and jerk. Finally, the two-parter -- and the series -- ends with a gunshot. Did J.R. do it? How can he, when we have reunion movies to do? Long live the king!!!!!! And, BRBTV notes, long live the brilliance of the amazing Larry Hagman!
