When the series resumed in 1980, she was replaced by Delta Burke in the role of Bonnie Sue.

Nelkin was scheduled to appear in the 1982 cult film Blade Runner as Mary, the sixth replicant who was a member of the Nexus 6, but the film's budget escalated and her part was cut before the film started shooting.
