The introduction of Dawn in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” was excellent.
The replacement of the actor of Greg in “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” was very well done (including multiple in-show references to the character being a different actor).
The series “Roseanne” had two different actresses for Becky. In the revival/The Conners, the first actress played Becky, but they had a nice storyline with the other Becky as well.

Reply to When people say Buffy the Vampire Slater is a good show are they being sarcastic? by BitCharacter1951

Buffy pretty much invented the serialized drama. It’s an amazing show, and still holds well today. It’s one of the few shows that showed improvement in later seasons (like the amazing season 5). It’s also known for well-in-advance planning. E.g., one character’s descent in darkness was planned maybe 2 seasons ahead!
