Replacement characters traditionally have a tough time:
Dr. Pulaski on STTNG. "PMS Bitchface" some called her.
The replacement Duke ~~brothers~~ cousins.
Chrissie (Suzanne Somers) replacement on Three's Company. And the replacement for the Ropers wasn't that great either.
But that's what I liked about her!
Same. I don't think she was supposed to be likeable. I feel like she was supposed to be brusque and nailed it. Like Bev was grand and all but I liked Pulaski better as a character.
Pulaski was supposed to be female Dr. McCoy.
Pulaski was a female Dr. McCoy.
There were two characters on Threes Company to become roommates after Chrissy left. Cindy was a mid season replacement in season 5, and then Terri started at the beginning of season 6. Cindy was a disaster, figuratively and literally. Terri was a more empowered role.
