What happened to Devon, and why did the show end in a cliffhanger?
In the series finale, “All About Eve”, Devon Adair contracted a mysterious disease, and was placed in cold sleep until a cure was found. This was done so that Debrah Farentino – who was pregnant at the time – could take time off to have her baby. When she was ready to come back, they would write her back in. The producers also knew that there was a strong possibility that the show would be cancelled, and deliberately filmed a cliffhanger to try to force the hand of the network.
