Too right,
willisdr!! Ansgar is
PURE evil! Imagine poisoning his own father; putting her sister in prison; getting involved in arms deals and the likes; basically this man has absolutely NO conscience, whatsoever. Period. I
LOVE it! The guy who plays Ansgar is absolutely delightful to watch. He portrays evil like no other - sadistic, sociopathic, pernicious, misogynistic, megalomaniac who's absolutely in love with himself. He will murder his own son without even batting an eyelid, if a situation calls for it! Oh, what a major MOTHER'S ARSE he is!!!! Yes, you're absolutely right in drawing the comparison with
J.R. Ewing!! Hit the nail right on the head, you have!
And, the incessant rivalry and hatred between Ansgar & Carla portrayed so utterly convincingly by the 2 actors is a wonderful thing to see on the tele. I haven't enjoyed such boisterous exchanges of verbal spats between 2 TV characters since the "
Dallas" days!
Ooooo, JR & Bobby; JR & Sue Ellen... Oooooo!!
If you haven't watched the past VL episodes like the ones I mentioned earlier, I'd recommend them highly.
Don't know if you ever watched UK's "
Bad Girls." Ansgar reminds me a lot of
Jim Fenner as well - always getting away with murder!!
