Tyne Daly (Dirty Harry's partner from THE ENFORCER) and Loretta Swit were the duo in the pilot movie (I can never remember which one is Cagney, and which one Lacey). When the movie proved successful enough to warrant a regular show, Swit was unable to reprise her role because M*A*S*H was still going. I don't recall who took up the role of whichever one it was that Swit played. Yes, supposedly, the network dumped whomever this was because she looked "too butch" or some such nonsense, and Sharon Gless got the part. Tyne Daly has stayed in her part since the beginning. --- jayembee (Jerry Boyajian, DEC Maynard, MA) UUCP: {decvax|ihnp4|allegra|ucbvax|...}!decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-akov68!boyajian ARPA: boyajian%akov68.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA *NOTE CHANGE IN ADDRESSING*
