Charles, please try to post the photo from the pilot if you can. Maybe copy and paste or drag into the box...............
I think Monash did the pilot, and then Philips came in and viewed it and started ripping it apart. I read somewhere on the net, that the pilot was an hour long and pretty much followed the film. Philips felt the CROSS family were unsavory for a series. To me the after, Mia left the series lost steam ............ Sort of like when Victoria Principal left "DALLAS". "Peyton Place" never recovered, wonder why they never recast her to me Leigh Taylor Young would have been the perfect Allison. Did you know Charmaine Carr from the "SOUND OF MUSIC" auditioned for Allison ??
See if you can post the photo !! Would love to see the CROSS family, wonder if Nellie was still Constance's housekeeper ??
