I saw one episode with Dixie Carter so far, the Hollywood one, and she seemed so boring. I've never seen an episode with Mary-Ann Mobely yet, but I'm hoping to see one soon so I can compare. Hope Mary-Ann Mobely isn't as boring. Yikes!

I think ThomasE said that Shavar Ross told him that it was Gary that got Dixie Carter fired.
I agree that I just think she seemed a bit plain. I think they probably were in love since Drummond chased her to Hollywood to get her back, I still haven't seen the first episode that they meet yet. I still think Mary Ann Mobley brings the character to life more. Sometimes she is funny because of how she delivers her lines like in Sam's Missing but I think she's more creative with the character. |

No! When they switched stations she didn't have a contract with that station!
