    Today is the birthday of my friend, Charlene Tilton, which is why I'm watching some of her stuff from long ago on UA-cam tonight. Wow, was she gorgeous when she was young! Sadly, I wasn't a fan when Dallas was originally on TV. It must have been on a night that my family went to church (Sunday or Wednesday night), or when there was another show on that we were already hooked on when it started, because I never watched until many years later, after I had met and become friends with Charlene. She is still a very attractive woman, but I'm stunned when I see clips or shows from when she was young. And Cherish was already a young woman when I met her, and so seeing her when she was little is a real treat. Anyway, Happy Birthday to my friend Charlene, who shares a birthday with my daddy, who has spent 43 of his birthdays in heaven.

    I think the writers made some critical mistakes with the character of Lucy. First, it would have made sense for her to go over to Knots Landing after Gary and Val relocated there. It would have been easier to write compelling stories for her with her relationship to her parents and how their relationship issues affected her. Even with her staying on DALLAS they could have done better. I think it was a mistake to kill off Mickey. I think there was much more story there that could have played out before anything happening to him, probably for at least a couple of seasons. And by season 7 (her last)....that's the one the DVDs are now calling Season 8, her storyline was completely separate from any other storylines on the show. And I think that was the biggest mistake they made with Lucy. Putting her on an island by herself, and not allowing her storyline to affect other characters like most of the other characters did.

    I liked Lucy's character. Her eye rolls & digs at J.R. & Sue Ellen. As she went on her acting was better. She was a hoot. She was just as good as Linda playing a drugged up person. She balanced the show & brought humor to the chaos. Just wished they let her & Mitch work out. Be the example of a long lasting, good marriage. They paired them up well. Not everything in life is chaos.

    She was very pretty, and she had a great personality. But she had a sad story to tell of her up bringing. But she was able to land a role on the most loved show Dallas back in the day. Every Wednesday evening I would watch it in the Uk. Didn’t miss an episode growing up.

      She was the only teenager on the show and actually playing her age. Lucy Ewing is quintessential Dallas! A shame she was under utilized in the original (latter seasons) and only given bit parts in the reboot. Lucy should have been given another love story when she returned to Dallas; she was still young then.

    "Lucy" was painted into a corner as the spoiled grand-daughter. She had no business acumen (although they tried - and failed - to go that route when Charlene returned). This is not a critique of Charlene, but more so of the writers and producers.
