“It’s a cliched character: the dumb blonde, and we missed it. We didn’t have that right away that what she brought to this story, this series, to these other characters was an intelligence that they didn’t have. A kind of intelligence that was alien to them, an intelligence about people and relationships and family.”
Meanwhile, The IT Crowd, which started airing a year earlier, figured this out in the pilot.
How do you miss something that obvious?
But the bigger problem is that ALL of the characters were cliches.
