I barely remember April, but perhaps that's a good thing since those of you who do seem highly annoyed with her lol!
For me it's a tie between Andrew & Mexi-maid (I don't recall her name, sorry): The arrival of Andrew, IMO, "crashed the party" for Henry & Muriel. Think about it, they're both in the prime of their lives, they're rapidly approaching empty-nesterdom...they're close to paying their final dues of parenthood and earning their freedom...only to have the clock set back ANOTHER 18+ years!! Ugh!!! I felt bad for them about this even then when I first watched it and I was only a grade schooler. I was a very observant child lol. To me, it's like watching those cop characters who have worked a full career, paid their dues, given their best and the best years of their lives, announce that they're one week away from retirement and daydream of their plans of what they want to do with their freedom, only to get gunned down before they get to clock out SMH. And Mexi-maid added nothing to the show but a sprinkle of hispanic stereotypes and an implausible love interest for Monroe. They had no chemistry whatsoever, but as I now know, that's not HER fault. It was really because he's playing on MY team LOL |

More appropriately, she was superfluous. Her character wasn't necessarily. The two sisters balanced each other out in terms of comedic personality types and April just seemed tacked on. Like a party crasher. |

When Muriel had a baby. The baby is my least favorite. I didn't like Jackie and Sarah having a brother/sibling. I like it just being the two of them.
