Cliff Barnes was a selfmade man despite his father being a drunk and his mother deserting him. He graduated from Law School and had a great future for himself. Tragically, he got sucked into the Barnes-Ewing feud over a lie. Digger was not cheated out of Ewing Oil and Miss Ellie by Jock. It was the booze. He wasted his life trying to avenge his father. But, if Barnes hadn't been so consumed with bringing down the Ewings, there wouldn't be a show.

I did not like that and I did not like they had Bobby's wife in the revived series end up having feelings for her ex husband who was abusive. If the series had gone on I bet she would have cheated on Bobby. Also did not like how much they changed the look at f Ewing oil/ Ewing Energy and Southfolk.

And to think that Robert Foxworth lamented about losing out on the role of JR to Larry Hagman. I can't see Foxworth doing justice to the JR character. However, Hagman had some guest starring roles in TV series that got him prepped for the JR character. Check out the previous TV characters he played in Police Story; The Streets of San Francisco; and Barnaby Jones . . .they were all variations of the JR character . . . charming when he had to be, but underneath, scheming and conniving.

Yes, that got me too. LOL Well, at this point in the series, Barnes kind of was a cheap man. But that was because, at this time J. R. was already very wealthy, while Cliff was at most an upper-middle class lawyer and not a wealthy man. Remember that this was before his mother Rebecca bought him his own oil company. After that, and especially after Cliff hit his off-shore oil strike with Gold Canyon 340, when he narrowly dodged the attempt J. R. made to bankrupt Barnes Wentworth [Cliff's Oil company], Cliff was as rich as J. R. or maybe a little bit richer than J. R. Ewing was!! From that point on in the series, they were pretty much on an evenly matched footing, in terms of their overall wealth, much to J. R.'s chagrin.

Its a shame i was too young to understand the drama back then. And too bad they didnt have dna test back then.

I have one question in mind.?? Why would JR carry on with Sue Ellen despite her infidelity?? To make matters worse there is a chance that she is pregnant with cliff's baby. Why doesn't he just give her the quickest divorce in the history of Texas lol?? Is it really worth it for JR to go through all this trouble for a woman who clearly doesn't love him???? Its more likely to embarrass him and the Ewing family.

JR said whether the child was his or not it would be raised a Ewing. JR wanted an heir for himself and his father. He and Sue Ellen had been married for 7 years and she hadn't gotten pregnant. He may have thought he couldn't get her pregnant and this might be his only chance at an heir whether it was his or not. In another scene JR tells Sue Ellen he will overlook what happened with Cliff but if she tries to leave him he'll have her taken away and the child aborted and then divorce her. What he wanted was an heir.
