However when the fans wanted Charlene to come back in 1988 the producers apparantly didn&#039;t want to bring back Mitch too so hence Lucy &amp; Mitch divorce.I think it would have been better if Lucy and Mitch would have moved to &quot;Knots Landing&quot; instead of Atlanta as it would have enabled us to see their second marriage and I think they would have fitted in well on that show. I mean Lucy&#039;s parents were already on the show so it would have opened up new storyline possibilities for the characters.Ms Southworth, you are right when you say that Lucy has grown up a lot. She is an adult in her 30&#039;s now. So she&#039;s at a completely different stage in life than on the original show when she was the teen rebel to start with. So yes I would agree with you that Lucy&#039;s ready for motherhood.Okay so here&#039;s tonight&#039;s update:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; On Wednesday evening, in Bobby and Pam’s room, Bobby was laying in bed reading a book when Rebecca entered the room. “Daddy?”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Rebecca what are you doing up?” Bobby asked surprised, as he put the book away.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “I couldn’t sleep.”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “But why not?”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Because I kept thinking about my things back home,” Rebecca pouted.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Home?”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Yes in our house in Los Angeles!” Rebecca confirmed and Bobby looked troubled when he heard that.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “But I thought you had started to think of Southfork as your home…”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “I do most of the time,” Rebecca explained. “But I still have to call someone back in Los Angeles.”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Now?”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “Yes, I want my CD player.

[QUOTE="Karin, post: 89410, member: 57167"] Thank you for the feedback everyone. :) [B]Tommie, [/B]I agree with you that it was pointless to have Lucy and Mitch remarry and then divorce on the show. :( But I guess the remarriage was done to give Lucy a happy ending when Charlene left the show in 1985. However when the fans wanted Charlene to come back in 1988 the producers apparantly didn't want to bring back Mitch too so hence Lucy & Mitch divorce. I think it would have been better if Lucy and Mitch would have moved to "Knots Landing" instead of Atlanta as it would have enabled us to see their second marriage and I think they would have fitted in well on that show. I mean Lucy's parents were already on the show so it would have opened up new storyline possibilities for the characters. [B]Ms Southworth, [/B]you are right when you say that Lucy has grown up a lot. She is an adult in her 30's now. So she's at a completely different stage in life than on the original show when she was the teen rebel to start with. So yes I would agree with you that Lucy's ready for motherhood. Okay so here's tonight's [B]update:[/B] On Wednesday evening, in Bobby and Pam’s room, Bobby was laying in bed reading a book when Rebecca entered the room. “Daddy?” “Rebecca what are you doing up?” Bobby asked surprised, as he put the book away. “I couldn’t sleep.” “But why not?” “Because I kept thinking about my things back home,” Rebecca pouted. “Home?” “Yes in our house in Los Angeles!” Rebecca confirmed and Bobby looked troubled when he heard that. “But I thought you had started to think of Southfork as your home…” “I do most of the time,” Rebecca explained. “But I still have to call someone back in Los Angeles.” “Now?” “Yes, I want my CD player. I always listen to it when I can’t sleep.” “I’m sorry to hear that sweetie. Hey how about that I’ll buy you a new CD player tomorrow?” “No I want my purple one!” Rebecca whined. “Alright we arrange for someone to send it over tomorrow.” “No I want to do it now!” “You can’t call Los Angeles now.
