Jock’s voice is the epitome of power.

I wish I knew as a kid just how lucky we were to have Barbara Bel Geddes on our screen every Friday night. There was nothing more powerful than throwing Bel Geddes and Larry Hagman against one another in a scene. Beautiful writing for this scene.

No way could a Jock Ewing ever have a wife other than Ellie. He’s intimidating and powerful. JR scares a whole state with one phone call...doesn’t even try to talk back to Jock. Bobby stands up to Jock, but even he knows when to quit. Ellie isn’t afraid of him, and a man like that HAS to have a woman like that, or their egos will run rampant

Barbara Bel Geddes really shines in this scene!

That's what made him such a memorable character. Also if Dallas had one thing in common with UK Soaps is that there's always a Scene with Liquor. Either at Home, or the Neighborhood Pub whether it's on Eastenders, Coronation Street or Emmerdale. I call this The "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof Salute". Remember when Big Momma said to Maggie "When A Marriage Is On The Rocks, The Rocks Are There Right There!" Miss Ellie bought it into this Scene and as you know she Played Maggie on Broadway in one of the earlier productions back in the day.

When Larry Hagman played the lovable, bumbling, fumbling Major Nelson on "I dream of Jeannie" people didn't watch the show because of him, they watched it for Barbara Eden. (In my opinion) her and Donna Douglas (Ellie May Clampett) were 2 of the most beautiful women in the world. Having said that when Larry Hagman became JR Ewing his popularity with the females literally went through the ROOF. I heard a female make the comment that the reason he was so popular among the women was because even though he was a PRICK, and ruthless he was very powerful. Women are attracted to that kind of personality, not so much the placid, easygoing types. They love the POWER, and the materialism. That is why so many are willing to put up with the Machiavellian personality traits, and the cheating, and knowing that they have their eye's on other females.

Listen to the scene carefully. She let JR go to be raised solely by Jock, and he turned JR into a ruthless robber baron with no soul. That’s why he is an even more ruthless version of Jock. The opposite was true of Gary. Jock had almost nothing to do with his upbringing, and he turned out to be weaker than dishwater because of it. Bobby had attention from both, so he turned out to be a balanced person who can reign in JR. That’s the underlying theme of the entire show while Jock is alive.

Jr, was the product of money, and access like most wealthy, people he couldn't feel compassion, and common decency. But I still loved the character.

It should have been JR, Sue Ellen's husband. who should have been the one to tell Jock to back off.

Powerful stuff from BBG here. Ms Ellie was every bit the Southern Lady, and the grace of Bel Geddes really makes that shine here.

Also what the Family didn't realize is that for her Alcohol is a "Coping" mechanism. She was such a fragile woman that JR made her think that everything that was wrong in her life was "Her" fault. No matter how horrible he was to her, she always stayed because she felt without him, she was nothing. Remember in Winds Of Vengeance after the Cowboys left, JR looked at Sue Ellen who shot him daggers of anger. In that scene you saw how narcisstic he was.

We are Family JR Like it or Not... I love Jocks Drawl. Awesome

One of my favorite episodes, the birth of John Ross. Sue Ellen drank because of JR's philandering and his callowness. Loved when Miss Ellie read the riot act on JR for his wicked ways, and not being there for Sue Ellen during their marriage, but at the same time regretting that she didn't intervene when JR was growing up, that was why she had a say in raising Gary and Bobby. It's understandable why John Ross became the way he was in the reboot, seeing his parents fighting and using him as a pawn over the years, not seeing how it affected him and his decision to revive Ewing Oil (Energies).

Miss Ellie also knows that she is responsible for JR and the way he is. So long as he works closely with his Daddy and makes Ewing Oil & The Family the most important and powerful that's all that counts. Also Jock never allowed JR to "relax". He and Sue Ellen never did a Vacation or had any "Private Time" to themselves.

When Miss Ellie speaks,people listen.

Miss Ellie should have told him to get off Southfork if he didn't care about the family.

Jr was the coolest villian

My favorite character was Bobby. Cute, likable, sensible, smart.

ME knew the whole time what JR was doing. and to me, SHE ran that household.

God Miss Ellie really realizes now that "giving JR To Jock" as a littl eboy was a very bad thing. As for his love for his Sons, he loved them all but never equally. Bobby was the apple of his eye, Gary reminded him too much of Garrison and Aaron Southworth, who ran or died and JR was the "Heir Apparent" to the Ewing Throne and as the "Eldest" he was supposed to be a proper example to his Brothers. Jock taught to win at all costs and when he did do "things" Jock would get upset because it was wrong, but it was a bundle of contradictions. The Ewings talked but never effectively communicated.

JR has as much empathy as a serpent. None!

Sue Ellen was guzzlin booze all night, again.

If this show was done today, JR would be classified as psychotic. He strictly doesn’t care what his moms said.

I also feel that JR felt that Jock, Miss Ellie and Bobby had no place to tell him how to run his personal life. Deep down he only married Sue Ellen because Jock put so much pressure to marry the "Right" woman after the debacle with Valene.

Watched it all the time. Stopped watching it when Bobby "died". Tried to get back into it but just couldn't do it..

Even Ellie, like in this scene, could be really cruel. But while JR gets called out on every single thing he did - and some he didn't - the other members of the family are rarely called out for their own behaviour. In a sense, its very unfair treatment. And honestly, JR worshipped his parents. If he turned out that way, its because Jock and Ellie let him turn out that way.

John Ross is JR from Tip to Tail. Miss Ellie would not be happy with whats going on in the new series..

Jock's approval meant the most to J.R. than anything. If Jock had the same one on one with J.R., it would've made a lot more of a difference. At least he'd have been home w/ Sue Ellen more and more discreet about seeing other women.

I like the scene where Sue Ellen life is in a crisis, esp. her's & JR's only son, John Ross, who's in jeopardy!

Miss Ellie throwing JR’s affairs in his face, classic.

It would be cool if Patrick Duffy played Jock if they ever made a Dallas movie. I have no idea who would play miss ellie.
