The Replacement Actors
Back in 1986, TV mega-star Valerie Harper was given her own series, "Valerie." The storyline was simple. She played a mom raising three sons (which included Jason Bateman) mostly alone while her pilot husband traveled the world. Sadly, real Valerie wasn't happy, and following arguments with the show's producers in Season Two, she split.
What do you do with a show called "Valerie" and no Valerie? You cast Sandy Duncan as an aunt who comes to take care of the kids after TV Valerie's untimely death. Then you slowly change the name of the series, first to "Valerie's Family: The Hogans," then to "The Hogan Family." Pretty soon, everyone forgets there was ever a Valerie at all.

Here's two that were missed:
Roseanne
Becky played by Alicia (Lecy) Goranson and Sarak Chalke..
The Dukes of Hazzard
Bo and Luke Duke (John Schneider and Tom Wopat) replaced by
Coy and Vance Duke (Byron Cherry and Christopher Mayer).
The Becky character worked....the Duke boys DIDN"T.

Chris Noth was excellent on Criminal intent why anyone would think that jeff goldblum could replace him or anyone for that matter. He is a dull, dreary man. I'll watch the reruns instead.

Keep Grey's Anatomy like it is. I hope Izzie stays and I would like to see Kelly and her pediatric doctor develop their relationship. It is important for the audience to see how gay relationships develop. Everything else should stay the same/

I really don't think Jeff Goldblum is any credit to the program. He was a has been before he even got started. He is fine for roles where he keeps his mouth shut. He is best fitted chasing other has been "Dinasoaurs" ie; jarassic park!!! If the writers think that the humourus comercial where he agrues with his female cop partner about how things might be currently done is a credit to this show then the show will only be doomed for failure! Lets face it this program is no NCIS, or CSI MIAMI, CSI NEW YORK, HOUSE these are the shows people are watching.

How about Dick York being replaced by Dick Sargent as the SAME PERSON, Darrin Stephens in Bewitched. How weird was that?

Another replacement to note is Jon Lovitz replacing Phil Hartman (after his death) in NewsRadio. Lovitz didn't replace the character of Phil, but Lovitz's character was a friend of Phil's character in the show. Lovitz did the role as a tribute to Phil, who was his real-life friend.
