Yeah Karen was meant to just be a side character I think, but she was expanded as the series went on. I like W&G but I do think all of the characters became a bit exaggerated toward the end.


Me too
...he was Frasier on Cheers...that was were the character came from and during the progression of Cheers, his character built and built and it was obvious, he could stand alone...and it was very successful, I have no idea if it became more successful than Cheers, even...but it’s still flanderisation when you think about it, it can go either way and actually highlight and bring out a character who was more in the shadow...
