It is Mr Hagman who has shuffled off this mortal coil. JR was shot, to death it seemed, years ago but magically came back to life in a frantic bid to boost flagging ratings. Apparently there's a "revival" series of Dallas going on somewhere, I don't know if JR was in that, but if he is he'll have to be written out again sharpish. Perhaps he'll be shot properly this time.]

He was in it, and his character was the only redeeming feature.

I was thinking of doing an entry at the start, glad I didn't now though.

Just don't agree with this pick another one thing, may as well have picked 100 names from the start, thought the whole idea was pick 6 (or whatever) and the one who gets the most from the original 6 wins.

Whats the point of picking new names.

Make a crap competition even more crap.

I suppose the point of picking new names is so that the player who's just made points still has the potential to make more with 5 nominations same as all other players. Thus success isn't punished, but rewarded. In football would you have a player who scores a goal sent off for the remainder of the game so his team can play shorthanded?
