Over the shows 9 seasons four different actresses played the public defender role. Gail Strickland played Sheila Gardiner in the pilot only in 1984. For the rest of the first season Paula Kelly played Liz Williams. Kelly earned an Emmy nomination for best supporting actress for the 1983-84 season for her work but it was never made publicly clear as to why she was let go from the series after season one. Starting with season two producers wanted Markie Post in the role and even had her on as a guest star as Christine Sullivan in the the second episode of season two. Post was unable to get out of contract with the series The Fall Guy and thus producers hired Ellen Foley to play Billie Young during the 1984-85 season. As season three began in 1985, Post became available and thus replaced Foley playing Christine Sullivan again from 1985 to 1992, the duration of the series.
