I am glad she wasn't - I can't stand her accent/way to talk!

Whisper of cinnamon wrote:...On the commentary for The Good Son, the writers say that they had it in their heads that the character would either be Latino - maybe played by Rosie Perez - or British. Then they began writing the pilot and they still hadn't decided yet. Then it got to the point in the script where the character made her entrance and in that moment they decided to make her British! So if they'd gone the other way in that 50/50 choice on that day, Rosie Perez could have been the fifth main cast member!

Speaking of which I find some of those shows a bit over the top. I mean doing Roz' job is definitely not rocket science and I am certain they would find a few passable people in a jiff even in an emergency; plus I am quite sure that Roz by contract wouldn't be allowed to simply leave Frasier out to dry before he could find a suitable replacement. I could write a book with all the near impossibilities in the show.
Also one thing that is funny is that Frasier's and Bulldog's shows are obviously not simultaneous then what would prevent Roz from producing both on a temporary base? The extra money she would earn? I think not.
PistolPoet wrote:...And it's not just that. I think it's a bit unlikely that any caller should be able to go past Roz and make it into the show, because she screens calls. As we saw in one episode (damn, can't remember which) when it's sweeps week, Roz asks each caller what the problem is, so I don't think she'd put through that kid who pranked Frasier and lied about being a 43-year-old salesman, or the guy who only called to ask what he should name his boat, or the one who lost a pinky ring and wanted to go public with it on Frasier's show. Speaking of which, there is a good number of callers who have absolutely no psychological problems - in addition to the ones above, there was a woman who tore her sister's dress, the guy who wasn't sure whether to buy a sump pump or go on a holiday to Italy, and probably a few more I can't think of right now. I guess that can only mean that Frasier and Roz were desperate for calls and would let anyone on the air, which shouldn't be the case, at least at the beginning, when the show was quite popular.

I thought she was changed by the time she and Niles got together (which is when the show should have ended in my opinion). It sucks, but it's always so nice going back to the earlier episode to get a refresher!
I think they were all their best in the earlier seasons.

Niles wealth is more puzzeling, but did he not get a great deal in the divorce settlement? If not to get in at first, but later to maintain his posh place?
