Has any other sitcom had so many recastings? - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

^^^ Thanks for the great clip. In my opinion, Boyd's character was never aged. He turned ten in the last ABC season. The following fall, was when the show wasn't in production to watch and so we got to watch him go into his 12th year during the first fox season. I don't have anything against Jet, but I don't see why Flynn had to be replaced when his real age was right around his character's age.

God bless you and him and Jet and the other past and present cast members always!!!

Somebody on Reddit said that Amanda Fuller replacing Alexandra Krosney as Kristin was the worst possible replacement you could find on a sitcom. For starters, the two actresses look absolutely nothing alike. More importantly, they were playing roles that were written completely differently and having different relationships with every character. And yet, the audience is supposed to accept them as being one person because they kept their backstories (such as Kristin and Kyle as a couple) in place although they no longer made sense with the personality of the new actress' portrayal.

Meanwhile, Mandy as portrayed by Molly McCook, went from being a fashionista with a heart of gold (and not as dumb as she thought she was) as initially portrayed by Molly Ephraim, to being sitcom wife overnight without the charm of old Mandy. The new Mandy in essence, became a the words of another poster, a "Fox News Blonde Bimbo Wife".
