I can not beleive that they screwed us out of a lot of good rebecca episodes. even though i like diane episode, I really liked rebecca ones too. rebecca episodes opened the show up to more possibilities than the Diane ones.

I personally think that the show would not have gone 11 years if Shelley stayed. she was good but the sam and diane thing would have gotten old. at least with rebecca it took the focuss to a lot of different couples on the show. (IE: Rebecca and Robin, Carla and Eddie, Woody and Kelly, Lilith and Frasier.) the sam and rebecca relationship was also kind of a new relatinoship because as much as she did not like him at first they became friends. Which was a first for sam.

I agree about the focusing on different couples. Lilith and Frasier were my favorite characters after Shelley Long left (Of course, Diane will always be my all time favorite). There were some good episodes, I have to admit, in the Rebecca Era. I loved the episode when Sam babysat Freddy, and especially the one when Rebecca was to marry Robin, and Norm and Cliff sang "Lollipop" after sucking helium. Yes, the Rebecca period had it's choice moments.

I have seen all the diane episodes when they were on another station but once it started with diane's final year it stoped running them so i never was able to see rebecca. I had not seen rebecca ones for a long time.

(IE: Rebecca and Robin, Carla and Eddie, Woody and Kelly, Lilith and Frasier, Carla and John Hill.) and we were able to see sam have a lot more fun than he did during the diane years. he was able to date much often and even join the sex group. which was funny.

yea i love both eras for different reasons.. the diane and sammy one.. i luved it for what it was.. LoL

the rebecca one.. i liked how they focused on more people on the show, and gave the regulars more story lines.. it seemed like the show never ran out of plots

Why, why, why does N@N do this?? What is their reasoning?? It's making nuts!!! And now the final episode's airing tomorrow?? Come on! Then during the week they'll go back to earlier in the season. Annoying!
