I didn't even realize right at first they switched Traceys on the show. Lynne Moody was replaced by somebody named Joann Pringle. I guess that proves how much of an unimportant character Tracey was.

Lynne Moody left the Show that's why they added Joan pringle to the show. It was the same situation as the Jeffersons when Mike Evans left the show and they had to get another person to play the role

Wow. I didn't know that either. So this show had 3 characters that were played by more than one actor!

Oh yeah that's right. Someone else should have played mama-lol

I think maybe I got it wrong. I think it was in "Honesty Day" that Leonard was played by that other guy.

Dang i never watched this show but i got to say Mama sure looks like Florida from Good times they could passed as relatives lol

Also in the second season, there was a different actress playing the recurring role of nextdoor neighbor Laura besides the late Helen Martin (227 fame).

Laura's character so minor that I never noticed

Lynne Moody's character fit the role of younger sister Tracy. Joan Pringle looked like she was the older sister. Tracy was to be 23 years old which was two years younger than Clifton. Joan Pringle looked to be in her early 30's to me. I wished that Lynne had remained...but it was not like she made a bad choice, right? LOL.

All the changes ruined the show in season 2. Removing those two old guys in the barbershop was the Nail in the coffin
