how come everyone except Janet gets to have the camera zoom in on them and then they pose specifically for the camera? Janet gets just a cameo of her doing something (with a goat?) but she doesn't look in the camera. It's not fair!

Not sure what you are trying to say

watch an episode from the season where Terry joins the cast and then you'll know

I Soo agree with you. This has bothered me for years. It's like the were treating Janet like a mere supporting character right from the outset of the series

The intro that was originally written for her wasn't used. The little boy that runs to pet the goat is John's son, Jason. He ran into the shot and they thought it was so cute that they kept that moment instead. That's why the others look more scripted and are looking directly into the camera whereas she isn't.

wow, thanks so much. I never knew that. (and RIP John - you were a great actor)
