How Hillary is the oldest but she acts so stupid. What kind of example is this? If the oldest is acting stupider than the younger kids, who are they supposed to get their examples from?(Besides the parents). She lets her younger brothers and sister behave like they have more and better sense than her. In real life, she probably would have been sent to the doctor for some brain testing.I loathe how shows put the oldest kids as stupid, slow, halfwitted people. Prime example. Erick from Boy Meets World. He acts like a dimwit! They are bringing down older kids, giving them a bad name.

THat's exactly why i said the Hilary character was not needed.

LOL about brain testing. I agree. It's giving us older siblings a bad name!

I don't know why shows do this. It's like they have to have such a "dynamic" bunch, that one person ends up being ridiculously stupid, and it comes of as LAME-O.

Hey, I defended Hilary in a post about her being a waste. I actually didn't mind her character the first few years. After she got her talk show, the stuck-up, dumber than rocks attitude just wasn't working for me anymore. It's not like I really expected her to change, but she just wore thin. And it is true about shows having to make the oldest sibling an airhead. It's suppose to be a way for quick laughs. It's like "Ooh, the most unlikely person to be dumb, the oldest person, actually is dumb. HA HA HA."
