Hagman pretty much begged Victoria to stay, but she had made up her mind. Hagman was not shy about getting rid of people he thought dragged the show down (Donna Reed anyone?). Still, she stayed on Dallas for nine years. Victoria has been very open about the fact that the direction the Dallas producers took Pam in was too limiting for her and wasn't the character she had signed on to play. Victoria saw it as a job and thought getting close to everyone might hurt her performance, but by all accounts she was very professional and came prepared to do her scenes. They thought Victoria was a bit standoffish, but that's about it. I know that Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, and Linda Gray were all best buddies and very tight. I've never read that Victoria Principal feuded with anyone on the set of Dallas.
