What a poor explanation for the absence of Dixie Carter and Gary Coleman in the - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Gymnastics Ep.

It was stated that Maggie went on a field trip with Arnold????????-lol

Now why the hell would that happen when Mr. Drummond would have went with Arnold? Anyone else agree that made no sense?

MikeLutton · 05-20-2008, 06:45 PM

yeah why was they missing i think arnold had kidney issues but what about maggie

TVFactFan · 05-20-2008, 06:48 PM

Watching the 3pm ep now and in this ep about Sam playing baseball it says that Maggie and Arnold are in Palm beach-lol

So out of 4 eps today so far, 3 of them have no Arnold

Jude The Obscure · 05-20-2008, 07:45 PM

So something was up! Was Maggie gone from three episodes as well?

Since these are in production order, did Dixie Carter already decide to jump ship?

ThomasE · 05-20-2008, 07:56 PM

Good question. I need to research.

Out of the 4 eps shown today Maggie was missing in 3 and Arnold was missing in 3. Maggie's absence wasn't explained in the ep with PUNKY BREWSTER-lol
Arnold was in the Punky Brewster ep

Jude The Obscure · 05-20-2008, 09:02 PM

Was she actually playing the character Punky Brewster?

(Again, missed the 2pm-3pm episodes)

ThomasE · 05-20-2008, 09:09 PM

No. She played Alex. Correct me if i'm wrong with the name.

Arnold's absence along with Maggie was unexplained in this episode-lol Dixie Carter must have already ROTATED off the show

ThomasE · 05-20-2008, 09:29 PM

Quality went downhill a bit during this season but I was still glued to the show.

Shavar Ross said Gary didn't like Dixie Carter, according to TJ, so that is probably a reason why Carter wasn't on some season 7 episodes and why she wasn't back for the eighth season on ABC.

Jude The Obscure · 05-20-2008, 11:58 PM

I do know Dixie stated that she was uncomfortable on DS and that is why she chose not stay with the show.
