It’s a testament to the strength of the original cast that, so far, most of my time watching the show is spent tolerating the new guard while waiting for the oldies to sink their teeth into each other. Although, credit where credit is due: Josh Henderson may flare his nostrils and cock his eyebrow eighty-six times a scene, but he’s really rather good — perfectly greedy, perfectly weaselly and selfish, but with the right amount of ineptitude so that you know he will only ever be, at best, a very small chip off the old block. Because you know JR Ewing would do everything in his power to make sure he never raised a child who could out-JR him. ALSO: a London twin. No, really.
