It was a good shift, the focus on the wacky ensemble and outrageous yet somehow realistic plot may have been influenced by the dominance of Seinfeld in those years?
While I like the Kelly character, the same old worried dad plots of the early days lack the zing of the later ones that caught my attention in these recent days. Luther, Dauber, Howard and the others are firing on high level comedy, fast paced and with surprising twists in plot.
So... spoilers won;t kill me, whatever happened to Kelly?
She seems to have just faded from the story by that last episodes... when was the last mention of her?
