Yeah, DeNozo, that's who I was thinking of, and of course Zeva, yeah it's no longer the same show. Why don't they just cancel these things when they run so long the key cast members are all gone?
That's one reason I prefer limited series, or series that have a pre-planned story to tell, and once it's been told they move onto something else.
They do that now and again with American TV, but producers are usually too invested in IPs they can (attempt) to squeeze dry for all their worth.
