If I were Kirstey Alley I would feel like a reject she had like 10 lines in the final episode. Shelley Long said goodbye when she left in '87 the moment belonged to Kirstey Alley and it was stolen by Shelley Long.
what do you think

I'm a Diane fan, and not wild over Rebecca, but you make a very good argument and I agree. It might have been a good idea to have Diane come back a few episodes prior and leave her out of the finale altogether. This would have given the current cast members more air time, including Kirstie Alley.
I think that Shelley did steal Kirstie's thunder, but with the networks, it's all about ratings and not feelings.
