The show featured over five cast changes within the first year, including six female leads being featured before Markie Post was settled on. Post was the producers original choice in Season 2, but could not get out of her Professione pericolo (1981) contract. Gail Strickland played the public defender in the pilot episode before being replaced by Paula Kelly, who was then replaced in Season 2 by Ellen Foley before Post joined in Season 3. Post did guest star in a Season 2 episode as Christine Sullivan just before Foley's arrival. Two court clerks were featured, first Karen Austin, then Charles Robinson, beginning Season 2. Three bailiff changes were Selma Diamond, who died after the show's second season, Florence Halop, who died the following year, then Marsha Warfield, who remained until the show's finish. The only cast members to remain from the pilot until the finale were Harry Anderson, John Larroquette, and Richard Moll.
