The problem was the writers created a completely unlikable character in Allison. Yeah, Suzanne was full of herself and snobby but she was so genuinely funny and she always had the best of intentions. You could also tell she held genuine affection for all of the other ladies as well. Allison was written as such a complete ice queen, it was a giant turn off.
Compared to Allison, Suzanne had a oddball sort of warmth. Maybe it was the harsh look on Allison's face that didn't help to endear her to people, either.
They shouldn't have replaced Suzanne at all. They just should've brought in Carlene )(Jan Hooks) and leave it at that. BJ and Allison were rather pointless.
What was Allison supposed to be? I can't remember. I know they brought in the actress to try to fill the void Delta Burke left, but why is the character acting so bossy without Julia interfering? Did she somehow buy the design firm?
I quit watching this after Delta Burke and Jean Smart left the show.I never liked Julia Duffy.She acts like she owns the business, plus she is a bossy snob.
I loved the character BJ in the final season. She added a much needed fun element to the show
After Delta, this show went downhill. It is hard to replace a character who is such a staple on a show.

I thought BJ was a good addition to the show. The Allison character was a disaster.
I love Julia's suite!
i liked allison! shame she didnt stay!
:( it cut off at the good part julia talking
Watching this I now rember why julia was & still is my favorite
LOL I loved Allison.
As a major Designing Woman fan, I liked Allison..I thought she was funny. No one could take the place of Delta Burke, but she wasn't a bad addition.
The episodes after Delta Burke left weren't good.
What is this - Wild Kingdom? Hilarious.

she bought Suzanne's share of the business and was a co-owner with an equal or almost equal share to Julia.
