Kevin Hill

Why was the baby on the show switched to a different baby. The baby used for the premiere of Kevin Hill, better matched

the star of the show. The new baby absolutely does not look as though, it is remotely related to Taye Diggs. Was the first baby star, too dark-skinned? I for one thought she was absolutely beautiful. Taye Diggs and its producers should be ashamed of themselves. The new baby looks as though she would be perfectly matched,it the star of the show was LL Cool J or Terrence Howard, but certainly not Taye Diggs.

Did UPN think that its audience would not have noticed the switch, so soon, in the airing of Kevin Hill. I have seen people of color eliminated quicker, in most major horror flicks. Focus groups can be so cruel.

In response to Sookie55's comment on the casting change for the baby, the reasons have nothing to do with the colour of the baby's skin. First of all, the pilot was shot over 6 months ago. So even though the first two episodes are one week apart, the baby would be 16 months old, instead of 10. There is a big difference between a 10 and 16 month old baby. Second of all, the change may also have had to do with money. Since the pilot was shot to see if the show would be picked up, the cast could re-negotiate their fees when it was. Some changes were made, example: Kevin Hill's 2nd friend in the first episode no longer exists. Since I live in Canada, I'll have to wait for CTV to pick it up, however the first two episodes which a friend taped for me were excellent. I'm looking forward to the rest.

This show can be taken seriously with people and topics that you can relate too. BRAVO to the creator and thank you for something that I can actually look forward to watching. The characters are believable and at first I thought it wouldn't work with Taye Diggs, but he has found his niche role. Keep up the good work and I really look forward to future story lines. It's a nice cross between The Practice and Ally McBeal, but not as ridiculous as McBeal, this is more on the serious side with acting and story line you can appreciate. Also, the characters are not predictable roles either. A successful black man with a gay white nannie (BRAVO). Thank you again for something different.

...or is this show more than a bit like the movie "Baby Boom" with Diane Keaton?

Highly successful person with no obvious intentions of taking time for a marriage and family has a relative pass away and leaves the successful person their child.

Successful person has to leave incredibly demanding job because of the demands of the child but finds equally fulfilling work doing something else somewhere else.

Personally, I'm hoping the show will be a success. I loved "Baby Boom", I thoroughly enjoy Taye Diggs in whatever he's doing (he's talented and he's eye candy - what more can a woman ask for?) and I'm tired of there only being comedies with black actors and actresses in the starring role.

What's the deal with the ever "changing" baby? Last night's episode (5/4/2005) the one with guest star Toni Braxton, must have had 2 or 3 different babies. It was so obvious. In the scene where Taye Diggs takes the baby to get her hair done, he goes in with one baby, turns around and it's a different baby and by the time they show the baby with her new hairdo it's the original Sara. I know they generally have identical twins portraying any baby or toddler character. This was just so odd. In all of the shows that I have watched I have never seen that done before. For those old enough to remember, it was sort of like the "Darrin" switch on Bewitched.
