Yeah, I was kind of baffled with both Reed and Charley not only being recast, but getting completely new personalities. I actually didn't mind Charley initially because I liked that she was more reserved, which seemed true to her character. In season 6 she just kind of becomes a full-on replacement for Frankie and they even take away any tension between her and Bea.
Reed... well, I think they wanted a wild child on the show, but it was a bizarre reboot of the character. Her just leaving her son entirely was just odd and barely acknowledging him outside a "I send a check" was a choice. The "Accidental" Madame story gave me shades of Sydney on Melrose Place, except Sydney was largely likeable due to Laura Leighton.
