WHO SHOT J.R.?

The answer, we all know now, was his conniving sister-in-law Kristin. But when the 79-'80 season of Dallas closed with a cliff-hanger, the question became a cause célèbre. Three foreign tabloids offered Larry Hagman $250,000 to spill the beans. A London gambler tempted Mary Crosby with £500,000. But since five endings were filmed, not even the principals knew for sure. "I thought, 'I'll believe it when I see it on TV,' " recalls Crosby, 35. Watching along with her that Nov. 21 night were 83 million others, breaking ratings records until the M*A*S*H finale in 1983. Crosby relishes her place in history. "Growing up, I was Bing's daughter. Now I'll always be the woman who shot J.R.," she says. Hagman, 63, chalks up the success of Dallas to "one of those Zen mistakes."
