"One Man and a Smart Baby" Haha
I'm so grateful for this thread. I kept seeing reruns with Sally pregnant and I kept wondering why I didn't remember anyone saying what had become of the baby. I didn't remember if she was supposed to have miscarried or not.
They definitely made a mistake letting Susan Saint James go. Choose your show or choose to be cheap. It was sad to see the show fade away. -

I do remember one of the episodes - it was the first one of the season - Sally suffered a miscarriage and lost the baby. It seemed to me that it was in the opening scene that she was being rushed by ambulance to the emergency room. I do remember that very well. Mac was really concerned about her.

You're thinking of the last episode of the first season. It does indeed open with her being rushed to hospital, but she doesn't suffer a miscarriage. Mac was really concerned alright, that's correct, but they established that mother and baby were 100% fine.

I was just wondering the same thing! I just started watching this show via Netflix and really want to buy the whole series. I just watched the episode where she was pregnant and saw another one from season 3 (on youtube) and there was no mention of a baby at all! I thought, well, they're keeping that kid quiet. The producers could have just hidden the pregnancy, like they do on a million other shows or they could have bitten the bullet and just given them a baby. They'd only have to show him/her a couple of scenes or at least mention him/her once or twice. It's not like they'd have to take the kid out on a case or anything.
Now I'm kind of bummed to learn that Sally dies and Mac's on the make during the last season. Not sure if I want to buy the series now, but I prob will anyway! I like the show - just like I'm growing to love "hart to hart". -

Oh, better avoid the last season of that show, when Jennifer Hart is killed off and the show is renamed simply "Hart". -

I just stopped by this mb to see if there is a thread about this. I am now watching the reruns and they are showing the episodes with Sally being pregnant and I've always wondered (then and now) about Sally's pregnancies. The one that I watched last night had a very pregnant Sally playing tennis with Stephanie Powers' character. Thanks for the explanation.

I have been watching reruns and I don't think they are in order. Yep.she is pregnantdon't see a show when she has it but then there is a baby.don't know sex,name or anything. The kid is upstairs all the time and they hardly ever talk about it. Next showno baby so I figured it was not in order.
They handled the baby business very badly. She was really pregnant so they either should have shot scenes before she showed or hide most of her when she did.
I had the chance to work with Michael Jackson who was as brilliant as they come.

Agree with everyone: The whole baby issue was very badly handled, especially when the series became simply "McMillan" and Mac was enthusiastically playing the field just 8 months after his wife and child's deaths. The producers should have paid Susan St. James and Nancy Walker the moon to stay with the series, because it just plain sucked after they left. Rock Hudson and St. James had such good chemistry.
Another inconsistency throughout the show(s) was Mac's smoking. First he smoked, then in a number of episodes he said he didn't smoke. And then with "McMillan" he was puffing away like a demon. Ugh.
