i am new to this site and have enjoyed reading some of the posts today... one thing about Sondra that i've always thought was funny was in the first episode, Claire asks Cliff why they have four kids, and he says because they didn't have five! (this is when the house looked more like an apartment)... and then, a few episodes later, they do have five kids! it's kind of silly when they are trying to introduce her character to the show... Cliff and Russell are on the couch talking, and Russell says something like "so how is your oldest daughter doing at Princeton?" and Cliff says something like, "oh, you mean Sondra?" i guess they had to do that, but it really seems unnatural...

Yeah that is strange how they include and delete characters out of t.v shows. Also with all the actors in show business it's strange how they use the same actors for different parts. This was mostly done in the 60's and 70's.
