MTV wanted a MCD, Crystal just happened to want to leave, so they chose her so someone who actually still wanted to be here wouldn't get fired. Or so the official story goes. I've still got my doubts on that, but that's a different story for another time.

Side note,mi felt we could've replaced Cora with a different actress though. She was in the perfect option to pull it off with little backlash, IMO. I also feel like they could've easily recast cora, she was only in a handful of episodes and I wanted to know more about her, like what she did all those years that she was thought to be dead, so much more could've been done with her character, she was like the female version of Derek. She could've been in scott's pack and he needs as much help as he can get because I'm tired of seeing him get his ass handed to him. I just wish they kept Cora because I liked her character
