Subsequent airings in syndication split the episode into individual hours, which raises the total episode count to 23 for the season and 357 for the series.
The plot of the episode mirrors that of the 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life, as J. R. Ewing is taken on a journey to visit what would become of the Ewing family had he never existed.
