No not that the actors have been changed, but that some people are so incapable of just enjoying a show and have to invest so much of their mental well-being in some light entertainment. It is a shame that good actors couldn't reprise their roles for whatever reason, but the story is written by the same people and you should perhaps just enjoy it. There is too much misery in the world to get so upset about something so insignificant. The show is brilliant - I never saw the pilot and I don't see the need to.

Episode 1 is a disapointment - the girl playing the ghost while fine as an actress was wrongly cast and not vulnerable enough - the other two were okay but unfortunately the original darkness in the scripting and reinforced by the lighting, set design and editing seems to have been lost - the show might get better but I have a feeling that marketing has got in the way. I don't understand why the opening script was not as strong as the pilot and why the pivotal role of the ghost was recast. Television is no longer a cool medium but sometimes certain shows can be this could have been the new battlestar

The previous actress could have had more potential as a commedy role, she didn't come accross as a victim, so much, as a bit of an irritating moany whinger.
Lenora is still funny by being more gently annoying in a childlike manner and she makes the role much softer & warmer she is much easier to like and have empathy with. As was said before there is a air of vulnerability.

Shes loveable, funny, cute n all. But i only found the other chick funny, she wasn't versitile enough.
Well done Len. Great job!
