Just read a couple of articles that Melinda Kanakaredes who plays Detective Stella Bonasera, has decided not to renew her contract for the up coming season (7).
There seems to be one actress in the frame to replace her, Sela Ward. That’s not a problem, the problem is possibly lining her up for the same character!!!
Please producers do not go soap on us and start putting new actors into established parts. Write the character out of the series completely and bring a new one in. It worked perfectly well when Anna Belknap came in to replace Vanessa Ferlito as a completely new character.
