[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 411097, member: 5079"] Presumably something personal; it doesn't appear that Bessell had a professional conflict, since IMDB shows a 4 year gap after MTM and his next project. The book on MTM's production makes no mention of the actor or the character. His casting seemed intentional and important, since he had played the boyfriend on THAT GIRL, one of MTM's primary inspirations. The producers did say that each time they wrote and cast a suitor for Mary, they thought he was "the one" -- only to be disappointed by the results on screen. [/QUOTE]
