March 21, 1980 –
On the season finale of Dallas, the infamous character J.R. Ewing was shot by an unknown individual – Who Shot JR?
Viewers had to wait all summer, and most of the autumn because of a Hollywood actors’ strike (and Hagman’s own holdout), to learn whether J.R. would survive, and which of his many enemies was responsible.
