Tia leaving ...Don't that kind of kill the whole premise?

I'm sorry but I don't think this show is going to last very long now (not that it would have had longeivity anayway) but now they've gotten rid of one of the main characters. The show wasn't that good to begin with, now they've thrown the whole concept out the window. It's supposed to been about Robert (Duane Martin) adjusting to life with his new fiance and his ex-wife and "all of them" trying to get along for the child's sake. Now that Tia's (Elise Neal) gone what is it now?...a broken family trying to patch things up..what? I don't know why Elise Neal left or if she's coming back..was it her decision or the producers and stuff decision? But it just killed the show in my opinion.

---Wont they just replace her with somebody else like just about every other show has done anyway.

I WAS WONDERING WHAT WAS GOING ON. I REALLY LIKE DUANE MARTIN AND ELISE NEAL TOGETHER ON THE SHOW. WHY DID THEY CHANGE IT, THAT'S CRAZY. I'M NOT FEELING IT AS MUCH ANYMORE.

Yeah, they killed the whole point of the show. The producers claimed they were tired of the redundancy with Tia and Neesie arguing, but that's what made the show interesting. It was a concept that may have been redundant, but it worked. Now, she's gone, and with the changes made, people aren't feeling the show anymore. I mean, why is it still called, "All of Us?" There is no more "us." What they could have done was what the 'Fresh Prince of Bel-Air' did, which was switch actors. (Aunt Vivian Banks) They could have brought on another actress to play Tia so that the story could stay alive.

That is true, but the show is still considered "All of Us" because they are still family whether Elise Neal was on the show or not. (Dont get me wrong I loved Elise Neal's character Tia on the show.) But I feel that it would have been dumb if they would've cancelled the whole show over her leaving. But it really doesnt matter anymore because the show got cancelled almost a year ago.
