I don't remember who shot him exactly (not that it really matters as the main thing was the preforementioned cliffhanger), but he definately didn't die. If I recall correctly the shooting was early on in the Dallas timeline (that stretched to the early 90's).

Could it have been Bobby who shot him? Or Sue Ellen? These are the only characters I remember from that damn show.. Oh, I remember one scene, when they dugged for oil. And there came oil up from the ground. They were happy.. I was 8 years or so when I saw it.. Hah, stupid show..
