Bummer.  The show really needs the character.  It adds balance.  
Without him, its too much machismo.

But... I thought you said the other day that the actor was off working
on other projects, so *that* was the problem.

In any case, from my "outside the box" point if view, it seems to me 
that the writers didn't always know what to do with the character.  The
characters would get in some sort of scrape and fisticuffs or a dinosaur
encounter would ensue-- while the others would get all physical and
really into it, Summerlee would often sit back and miraculously turn out
okay.  Often, his character didn't fit the physicality that the
situation demanded, but the other character could handle.  So I'd 
surmise that the producers didn't think the character fit so they got
rid of him.  It's a shame, really.

Thanks.  I'll see what I can do.
