Who Shot J.R.? (1980)

The 1980 season finale of the popular prime-time soap opera Dallas ended with the show's central character—J.R. Ewing, a greedy, scheming oil baron—being shot by an unknown assailant. The cliffhanger left viewers wondering for months whether he would survive and which of his many enemies had pulled the trigger. The episode that revealed the culprit became one of the highest rated television shows in history, drawing an estimated 83 million viewers. So, who shot J.R.? More...

"Ultimately, the person who pulled the trigger was revealed to be Kristin Shepard (played by Mary Crosby) in the "Who Done It?" episode which aired on November 21, 1980. Kristin was J.R.'s scheming sister-in-law and mistress, who shot him in a fit of anger. J.R. didn't press charges as Kristin claimed she was pregnant with his child as a result of their affair." TFD

Larry Hagman had a home in Santa Fe, New Mexico at one time. He and his wife of many years (Maj) were often seen out and about around town. People often commented on how nice he is to everyone. In Santa Fe, word quickly got around regarding which stars were rude and demanding in restaurants and stores. I think it safe to say he is one of the good guys, regardless of what kind of characters he plays.
