Can you do an episode "Top 10 movie Series Replacement characters"…with for example the replacement of the role of Victoria in the Twilight Series or the replacements of multiple characters I the Harry Potter series (eg Dumbledore;Lavender Brown or Pansy Parkinson)?…or did you do already?
Gordon of Sesame Street:
Matt Robinson—>Hal Miller—>Roscoe Orman
Why on earth are hated replacements on this list? Not to mention quite a few series that bombed the moment this switch was done due to being terrible (such as that 70's show and Two and Half men.
Aunt viv?
how is #2 a replacement character, it´s the same character just different actresses
the timey wimey line is getting way overused
Paige on Charmed, Bella on H2O anyone?
YES!!!!!The doctor is first also I want Eddie Redmyne to be the nexts doctor. Let's make it happen! All doctor who fans share this…. #EddieRedmyneThe13thDoctor
Ive seen spartacus and i must say, it was great casting.
It's settled, Doctor who is their click bait
"Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Stuff"
Three's Company, actually Cindy (Jennilee Harrison) only last one season as their "full-time" roommate, then came Priscilla Barnes. Although Cindy did stick around for the next couple seasons simply as their "friend" who came by every now and then.
Let's not forget about the Roper's being replaced by Ralph Furley (Don Knotts). Which is, imo, the absolute best character replacement in the history of television. And I don't say that lightly, either.
Furley was just 100000x more funny and he was sooo dumb! It was hilarious and tbh, he is the only reason i still watch the show every night on YT.
DR. WHO SUUUUCKS!!!!!
Of course dr who is at number 1
killing of charlie sheen was two and a half men's downfall so what he yells on filming the damn thing but he is good at it i will never understand why chuck lore replaced him with a moron like kutcher
I swear if The Doctor is not the n° 1 Im going to be so mad
I love the Doctor.
RIP John Hurt aka The War Doctor
Betty Rhomer (Rebecca Gayheart) replaced by Daisy Adair (Laura Harris) in Dead Like Me
Doctor Who, yes I argree. But what about Charmed (Prue and Paige)? Or Stargate (Jack O'Neill = Kurt Russle or Richard Dean Anderson)?
omg all doc who are going to freck so mad about David tennit
Only fools and horses, Grandad for uncle Albert… couldn't be bothered looking up actors names
what about jefferson for steve in married with children
"more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimey… stuff"
Lee Merweather played the original Catwoman in the movie, then Eartha Kitt placed her in the series, but because she was black and Batman and Catwoman became too close, she was replaced by Julie Newmar.
I might have got the concept wrong but why isn't James Bond on here?
Claire from My WIfe and Kids.
While Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi were good… DAVID TENANT I MISS YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Leonard Nimoy for Martin Landau in the original "Mission Impossible".
Jacob Hopkins for Gumball Watterson
ROSSY FOR GIDION CRIMIMNAL MINDS
jimmy Olson in lois and Clark. Michael landes for Justin whalin
when charmed shannen and rose
2 and a half men WAS charlie sheen without him the show made no sense. Not a fan of Kutcher as the "replacement".
who's the guy at 8:55 and what else is he in?
What about My parents are aliens – the blonde mum being replaced by the red head mum
Doctor Who are not replacement characters. It's the same character different actor different fake different take on the character. like James Bond.
You completely and utterly skipped MASH. Mike Farrell for Wayne Rogers? David Ogden Stiers for Larry Linville? Harry Morgan for McLean Stevenson? Not a one?
How about Night Court which probably had the biggest turnaround. Public Defender Sheila to Liz to Billie to finally Christine. Clerk Lana to Mac. Bailiff Selma to Flo to finally Roz.
How come Dario from GoT wasn't in it?
Alright mojo, I'm literally done af with you. You are always hypocritical and annoying and being bullshitty. First of all this entire video was all the fuck over the place. Then, there was this one dumb af video of bad characters in good shows and you fucking put John Dogget as a dishonorable mention and I was so mad, then in this video, literally using the same scene used in the other one, he's now an honorable mention for this video. Lemme tell you, Robert was excellent as Dogget, and seasons 8 and 9 were fine but it wasn't a change for the BETTER. And who exactly was replacing Steve Carrell?! FUCK YOU MOJO YOU DUMBASS.
Dynasty. Steven Carrington Played by Al Corley replaced by Jack Coleman
I would include Rose McGowan on Charmed replacing Shannen Dorherty.
Ted McGinley replacing Ron Howard on Happy Days & David Garrison on Married With Children.
Paige Matthews
Rose McGowan for Shannon Doherty in Charmed?
Law & Order should have made the list.
