BTY replaces Gracie? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

The upcoming episode "Hug & Tell" lists a new actress playing Gracie. Her name is Lily Jackson. I wonder if this has got anything to do with the future of the show at all

You're kidding? Why would they replace her in the middle of the first season? Unless it's just for this episode from some reason.

It might be. Laura Marano is still listed as Gracie in the official website and there's been no news announcing her departure from the show. My guess is she might have had a schedule conflict due to the strike but who knows really. But, I have to say, in one of the promos for the show they sort of summarize the whole story and when they mention the daughter they show the new actress. I guess we'll have to wait and see!!

Actually the new actress has done two episodes so far. They still have four more to shoot. I wonder what will happen with those???????

Yeah, I saw the promo last night, with the new actress playing Gracie. My guess is the change is permanent. I doubt they'd air a shot with the the new actress if it's just for an episode or 2.

What the heck is the deal with that??? I guess it is ok, considering this is only the first season and the show has been interrupted about a zillion times, but I'd like to get some reasoning.

I know. You'd think FOX would at least formally annouce that the actress playing Gracie has been replaced, and why.

I guess it'll be like the Bewitched incident. Just replace one Darren with a reasonable look alike and hope nobody asks questions. lol

Aww, why would they replace her? I really liked the original actress.

Mr. Television · 04-16-2008, 07:05 PM

I wonder if the theme song will be gone or if they'll just replace the actress in the opening?

Good point, although it wouldn't be too hard to replace her intro, I would think.

The new actress looks nothing like her in my opinion. I had no idea she was repalced until I saw the episode. The brief second she was on she sounded and looked much younger than Gracie.
