Controversy
Sheridan's friendship with Princess Diana came with much controversy because of the nature in which the relationship was handled. Following a car accident, Sheridan made an unexpected recovery following massive injuries and received a visit from her friend Diana, whom Sheridan told, "Thank God I was wearing my seat belt. If only Diana had been wearing hers." The storyline was considered "tasteless, offensive and exploitative," but the show's creator and head writer James E. Reilly considered the decision to include the presence of Diana the "beginning to establish Sheridan's identity."

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:
“Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
