at least with the mom on fresh prince of bel-air, they did make reference to it...

Jazz (will's friend) came in at the beginning of the first ep with her and said something like "you look different all of a sudden". Then, the next season, he came in and was like "so who's the mom this year?" I always appreciate when a show can acknowledge lil things like that.

Ross Gellar's lesbian ex-wife in "Friends".

They changed the older daughter in Hope & Faith. The new older daughter is much hotter but I wish they stuck with the same actress to play the older daughter -- it feels weird seeing a new actress play her.

sister in "my wife and kids"
and the older sister in "hope and faith" (i think ...either that or the girl got much hotter over the summer)

Well, the pilot for Gilligan's Island had 3 different actors/actresses, rather than whoever played Mary Anne, Ginger, and the professor.

On Married with Children...there was a period where there was a younger brother, "Seven" who just sort of showed up. He wasn't around very long, though.

Oh, and they changed the voice actor who plays "Mom" on the Brak show :D

Also on married with children they changed "jefferson" they looked nothing alike :)

They didn't switch jeffersons. The first husband for Marcy was named Steve.

The landlord chick on Joey. It used to be Ashley Scott for the pilot. Then this new girl appeared in the same role.

Ashley Scott was not in the broadcast pilot, her scenes were reshot with the new actress.

pilot chick was much hotter

They did acknowledge the changed daughter on Roseanne, I remember her being sniped at that she could be replaced during one of the later episodes.

Also, there were two different Lionel Jefferson's in "The Jeffersons".

Lee Meriwether was the 3rd Catwoman.
