Just discovered that Leon Janney's character of Major Page was head of a children's military academy. I assume this was the school little Tommy Hughes was sent to by Lisa. This was in early 1964, as Janney played the role for two months before being quickly moved over to Another World to take over the role of Jim Matthews when the original actor was dropped after a few episodes.

By Week 20 of the 87/88 season ABC had moved into second place and with the Winter Olympics coming up on ABC, CBS faced the prospect of finishing 3rd for the season for the first time ever. Dolly was shunted off to Saturday night , pretty much signalling that it would be cancelled by the end of the season. ABC had agreed to a 2 season committment so it cost them a lot to drop it after just one season. Most mid season shows were being held to March after the Winter Olympics. Knots Landing continued to do well considering weak lead-ins and strong competition from LA Law. It ranked 22nd, and its lead in Simon and Simon was 55th. 1. 32.3/47 N Cosby Stow 27.8/41 N Different World 24.9/37 N Cheers 24.6/39 N Golden Girls 23.9/35 A ABC Sunday Movie 'Elvis and Me' Pt1 22.5/33 A Growing Pains 22.3/32 A Who's the Boss? 21.5/31 C Murder, She Wrote 21.4/32 A Moonlighting 21.3/33 C 60 Minutes 21.3/37 N Bloopers 8 Practical Jokes Sat 2 10 (pre-empting JJ Starbuck) 20.7/34 N Amen 19.3/31 N David Letterman Special Thurs 9.30 – 11 (pre-empting Night Court & LA Law) 19.0/28 C CBS Sunday Movie 'Windmill of the Gods' Pt 1 18.6/30 C Dallas 18.4/27 N Matlock 18.0/26 N ALF 17.5/28 A Head 01 the Class 17.3/28 N227 . 17.1/27 A Perfect Strangers 16.6/24 N Family Ties 16.5/27 C Knots Landing 16.5/27 N Facts of Life 16.423 A Hooperman 16.325 C Designing Women 16./24 N Valeries Family 15.6/23 C Newhart 15.5/24 N Highway to Heaven 15.5/23 N NBC Sunday Movie 'Rambo First Blood' 15.3/26 A Thirtysomething 15.2/25 N WWF Special' Main Event Fri @ 8 (Slot filler till Highwayman premieres) 15./22 N Hunter 14.9/24 A ABC Monday Movie 'Weekend War' 14.9/24 A Dynasty 14.8/26 N Unsolved Mysteries Fri @10 (slot filler till Sonny spoon premieres) 14 7/25 C Falcon Crest 14.7/21 N My Two Dads 14.6/24 C Smothers Brothers 20th Anni Wed @10 (pre-empying Equalizer) 14.1/23 N Miami Vice 13.9/23 C Beauty and the Beast 13821 A Slap Maxwell Story 13.7/20 C Kale and Allie 13.7/23 N Crime Story 13.6/20 A Disney Sunday Movie 7-9 'RocknRoll Mom' 13.6/23 C Cagney and Lacey 13.5/22 N NBC Monday Move 'Flashdance' 13.4/22 N St. Elsewhere 12.9/20 A MacGyver 12.9/20 ABC Thursday Movie 'Firefox' 8-11 12.7/20 Kate and Allie Wed @ 9 (pre-empting Magnum PI) 12.6/20 A Mr. Belvedere 12.5/21 A Full House 12.3/19 N Year in the Life 12.2/19 C Frank's Place Wed @ 9.30 (pre-empting Magnum PI) 11.9/18 C Simon and Simon 11.8/18 C Jake and the Fatman 11.7/19 C High Mountain Rangers 11.5/19 A Dolly 11.4/20 A 2020 11.4/17 C Frank's Place (Mon ) 11.2/20 A Spenser.

I see in the credits for the Nov eps a character named Beatrice Lansing. As mentioned before, Marland always included a character named Beatrice in his shows as that was his mother's name. he also used the surname Lansing a few times so maybe he had a connection to that also. I was quite impressed by Mona's living room set as it looked quite detailed and spacious. Opposite the entry to that room is a door which I thought was a closet or entry to another room until the doorbell rang and I realized it was the front door to this mansion,just a few steps away - hardly the grand foyer you would expect such a house to have,.

Guess her contract was coming up for renewal and it was assumed she'd continue. Maybe her reps had intimated that and negotiations were underway etc... and then Julia announced she wasn't renewing. Don't know why they didn't just recast...

Anna Suart/Toni seemed to be in limbo her last few months on the show. I wonder what the plans were for her character and the circumstances of her departure? She was unhappy so did she leave when her contract was up or was it a mutual decision? Mike hooks up with Sara Dancy...was that the original plan for that character?
