Bonnie and Opus do you agree with Tom Jicha regarding Season 8 Finale?

TV Critic felt the series should have ended after Ann got married and gave his reason

I’ll agree her getting remarried would have been a good way to end the series. And if season 9 was already locked in, just don’t do the marriage till the end of that season.

Is any of the main characters seen less in season 9 like how Welcome Back Kotter was?

Ot was OK because by than Julie and Barbara were married with their own lives , moving into a house away from the apt. So more of the episodes centered on them at their new home and less of Ann back at the apt.anyway.

The two season 9 cast changes were Alex was gone after three seasons and Mackenzie Phillips was let go about halfway through it because of her drug problems.

Yes. Season 6 . She wasn't in season 6 due to drug abuse
And her absence was explained that her and her new husband, Max who she married in season 5 moved to Houston.

You will be noticing her looks starting to change for the worse in season 4. Julie starts to get really skinny and sickly looking from the drugs. Than season 5 really escalated very badly.

I have a thread of who appears in each episode called Casts-Per-Episodes here on the message board.

Julie is in sixteen of the twenty-six episodes from season 5. She is absent from season 6, as mentioned. She appears in four episodes of season 7, ten episodes of season 8, and only three episodes of season 9.
