Jesse Metcalfe on a Dallas Appearance by Victoria Principal: "It's a Possibility For - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Victoria Principal broke the hearts of many old-school Dallas fans, when she revealed she had no plans of reprising the role of Pamela Barnes Ewing for the TNT update of the classic primetime soap. Could things have changed?
In a recent interview with Access Hollywood Live, Jesse Metcalfe, who plays Pam and Bobby's (Patrick Duffy) adopted son Christopher, said mama could be coming home in Season 3!

“It’s a possibility for Season 3, but, it’s not gonna happen in Season 2.”

I guess that means the mystery woman in Switzerland won't turn out to be the original Barnes girl. I wonder if it's Cliff (Ken Kercheval) and Pam's whackadoodle of a sister Katherine Wentworth (Morgan Brittany)? Sure, Cliff told his daughter Pamela (Julie Gonzalo) that her aunt had died, but it wouldn't be the first time someone returned from the dead on a soap! Watch the interview after the jump.

I do think that it is a longshot. It would be like trying to move heaven and earth to bring Victoria Principal back into the mold.

If they wanted to bring Pam back ( the character Victoria played) they could have used another actress. Pam had a accident that burned her body so easily another actress could have taken the part. But the writers may have felt "Why bother". As it is now, John Ross lost his dad and Christopher lost his mother. They might just wanted one parent to remain.
