Who had bigger shoes to fill, Diane Ladd or Jenilee Harrison? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Of course, I am talking about the actresses on the sitcoms "Alice" and "Three's Company." These actresses stepped into a role to replace someone who had been incredible in the previous. The pressure was on both women, they replaced the popular "Florence Jean Castleberry" and "Chrissy Snow" respectively. The viewers wanted the replacements to be the original, but the actresses had to be themselves. I am going to say Diane Ladd had more pressure to replace Flo more than Jenilee had more pressure to replace Chrissy. Reason is that because Flo's character was more likable than Chrissys. Flo contributed more to Alice than Chrissy did to Three's Company. Alice never recovered from Flo's departure, but Three's Company to me got better without Chrissy.
