Actually they did. Before the show was cast, the plan in Art Wallace's bible was for Paul Stoddard to be Vicki's father with some woman not on the show. However, once Alexandra was cast and they noticed her resemblance to Joan, the plan quickly changed to Liz being Vicki's mother. Sadly though, even though Liz and Vicki share what could definitely be considered mother/daughter scenes (particularly the ones dealing with Vicki's aborted November of 1968 wedding), it's amazingly frustrating that the show never comes out and confirms that Liz is Vicki's mother. (Supposedly, however, the '91 series planned to reveal their real relationship - but that show was canceled before it could. )
