He returned to the iconic role of JR Ewing in a couple of TV specials and a reboot in 2012. He died on November 23, 2012, at the age of 81.

Quote: "I made money. Enough so I don't have to work again. But I'd like to, I really would. But I'd want to do something interesting like Santa Claus - or God."
