I never payed much attention to why Karen gained weight. I didnt notice it much. One reason may be cuase she was getting older and when u get older you gain weight. Maybe the show thought she was to skinny, not sure. About Brendon living. I never knew he left the show. I did notice watching it in reruns on FoxFamily that he seemed to be missing in alot of episodes, like a season, but then i saw he was back for the last season. NOt sure, im gonna check into that. If he did leave the show i could see why. He really didnt have much of a role, maybe he was sick of playing the part. HTere was already plenty of cast on the show. hmmm?

ok well i dont think he was e ven in the last season but im not too sure. did u notice that fox family also doesnt show one of the seasons beginnings..like when lilly comes there is a whole season without the theme song..it doesnt have anthing. weird! oh i read like right after i wrote that message before that he was let go so he could pursue other things and like u said because his role really wasnt all that great and with the addition of lilly he was really unsignificant. but still i wouldnt wanna be let go even if my part was so small..he was one of the original kids, i think they should have left him on somehow and not added jean luc or rich or something like that. but it was still good anyway

I agree Karen looks slightly different at the end, but if notice from the start of the series, she is the one kid that actually changes the least, for sure. She looked "grown up" from the start kind of, even though she is 5 months younger than Staci Keanan in real life. But I don't think she was unhealthy looking at all. She looked good.
