Paul did the best job he did with the material, but material was serious awful for Dan. Seeing Lucas play detective sucked big time imo and ruined any potential Lucas/Dan had that season.

They tried too hard to turn Dan into JR Ewing from
Dallas. It backfired terribly, mostly because OTH was a totally different show and Dallas was a different era.
Plus, JR would never have shot his own brother. He had huge fall-outs with Bobby, but never serious enough to consider hurting him.

Think it's pretty obvious that either Dan and Deb truly loved each other and only stayed together for as long as they did because of Nathan.

Yes, and it's definitely talked about in the Season 1 finale. Dan admits to Deb that Karen was " a girl I loved very much", and he would have catered his career around their relationship... But then he found out Deb was pregnant and it made him rethink the whole thing. He suddenly became power-hungry.
