Post If you was the director off DS who would you fire?

I would fire Maggie and Sam and hire back Kimberly because there is no Ds without Arnold, Willis,Kimberly,Mr.D or a housekeeper

Nasty for sure. Does anyone remember the multi-millon dollar music video that they made together a few years ago? It was so bizarre. If Michael would have been casted as Willis, where would Michael's monkey fit into the show?

I agree with Zankara, DS wasn't the same when they fired Dana.

I would replace Gary Coleman with Alf and Todd Bridges with Michael Jackson. I bet the show would have lasted until 1993.

Michael's monkey would be the brother Willis and Arnold never talked about. lol...

Michael as Willis, now that's creative.
I agree, Callme has a great imagination.

I would also fire Dixie Carter and Danny Cooksey. I would not recast. I'd get him a new wife without a kid. I'd cast Rue McClanahan as his new wife. It worked on Maude.

No, he'd still be willis, just played by a fidd actor,

But then, if you cant michael, you'd have to recastJanet (whoever she plays), cause that;d be gross. Replace here with, fill in here.

Keep Gary as Arnold, keep conrad as Mr. Drummond, have Adelaide as the housekeeper from Season 3 THROUGH the end, forget that other one (of course, keep Ms. g for the first 2), keep dixie as maggie, and instead of Sam, ALF.
