Wonder why...

I wonder why in future episodes of "That 70's Show", did they have Brooke Shields play the part of Jackie Burkhart's mother when in this earlier episode, they had Eve Plumb play her even though all she really had was a cameo, when she walked to the back of the house she was selling with the prospective buyers only to find Jackie and all the youth from Point Place, at the bottom of the empty swimming pool having their kegger party. Not that Brooke Shields isn't a great actress but it was so inconsistent and I know... it's not "reality" TV but I like consistent character actors. Besides the show already had one younger looking beautiful mom (Midge, played by Tanya Roberts), so I guess what I'm saying is, Eve Plumb would have made a more believable "mom" character than Brooke Shields.
