One solid recast was Marilyn on THE MUNSTERS.   Pat Priest may not have looked exactly like Beverley Owen, but close enough to not be jarring; especially since the recast happened in the middle of a season, which was highly unusual.  (Now when Pat was replaced with the younger, red-headed Debbie Watson in the theatrical film, that was jarring.)</blockquote>
