What also makes the Laura storyline so unique is that it features different characters who never appear again on DS afterwards- Dr. Guthrie, Frank Garner, Lt. Riley from Phoenix (played by two different actors with no announcement about the change to the viewers).
There is even a live shot of a Phoenix street as well as a morgue scene!
Seeing this storyline a second time, I didn't realize that Dr. Guthrie appeared in an almost uninterrupted run from his first appearance until his last, I think he misses only one episode. I loved the live shot of his car in flames!
He was featured so prominently, one would think he would have been kept on the show after this story came to an end, a Prof. Stokes type. Removing him from the show was a huge mistake I believe. If you're watching the syndicated series only like I was the first time around, you never would have known he was ever there at all.
