He played the black sheep of the Ewing family on the show from 1979 to 1993, and maintained a strong acting career following the end of the show.

« I thought he never thought anything through. I didn’t see any strength of character, » he said. « I mean, just once I wanted him to have some courage. And I never saw that. »
