[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 96748, member: 35"] Yes, but they should have at least went for a BBG type. Donna Reed couldn't have been more different. In fact, that's often the case with recasts. It's rare that they recast a character with an actor similar to the original. The closest I can think of are the two Darrins on Bewitched. To each their own. Reed had some nice outfits, but I didn't think that red plastic-looking dress was one of them. Ultimately, I preferred BBG's sensible, down to earth style. Then again, I wasn't a big fan of the Travilla years to begin with. Even BBG's Ellie was a bit glammed up in the dream season. [/QUOTE]
