I was just watching the TV series Peyton Place and William Smithers was in it. In this role he played a very nice family man and was running Peyton Mills. William Smithers has a distinctive voice and I knew I've heard that voice before. I looked up the actor and found out he had played Jeremy Wendell, I'm thinking of course that's who he is, he pretty much looked the as he did in Dallas, just younger, he was on Peyton Place in the mid 1960's. Actually, I've been finding several actors that went on to have great movie and TV careers besides the obvious two of Mia Farrow and Ryan O'Neal.

Wendell's one weakness was that he didn't know how to extact revenge. He'd never needed to until JR humiliated him. Before that he was simply a cold blooded ruthless businessman who only cared about acquiring Weststar assets by any means necessary. His obsessive desire to get revenge over JR made him careless, and it cost him everything and more.

Mack was a perfect character. Kennedy really put everything into this character. You could really see Carter McKay as this tough, blue collar badass. Most likely worked on the rigs, became a foreman, saved every dime he had, incurred no debts, and bought everything with cash, including his company and Krebbs property. The only two things I didn’t like was the inclusion of Rose, and how the writers handled Tommy. The Mack character was too measured to make these kind of errors with those two. I kind of wish they had McKay around when Jock was around. Could have written him as an old protege of Jock’s who thinks JR is ruining his mentor’s legacy. Could have run years of stories with the two families, and allow the Barnes feud to take a breather every couple of years.

It's funny you say that because I wonder why Larry Hagman didn't think that up? I read somewhere that he and George Kennedy they knew each other for years off the set and it was George Kennedy who tried to get him to stop drinking. I think George County was so busy doing movies that it just never dawned on them that probably is the answer to your question. I agree George Kennedy would have worked well with Jim Davis I don't know exactly if you would have been Carter McKay. See Wendell was an off-and-on character till 86. So a lot of his hate for Jr was back in the 80s when they were close. Jr promised him Ewing oil and backed out when jock and Ellie worked out their marital differences. Wendell was the only person on this show to a beat and Jr twice. Keep in mind a lot of people never be Jr once. So was a big greedy like someone said but still I don't think that he was this stupid. I don't know I do think George Kennedy would have worked out much better early on. How he would have worked with the show early on given that Pamela Barnes was there would be kind of tough to explain. Even if you took the Digger Barnes rivalry away for a Time he still would have had to do something with Victoria Principal and I don't know how you could work that in. Him being chairman of Westar and being part of the Wendell past just made more sense especially after of Kimberly Crider and so on
