When did the "Chrissy change" happen? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ok, I know this has been discussed many times on here but I'm still not clear and I missed the last few episodes of season two and first few episodes of season 3. When Did Chrissy go from being blonde and somewhat sophisticated to platinum blonde, tons of makeup and an airhead? Was it gradual or was it more sudden? This time around on NAN when I was watching 3C, I noticed well into season 2, Chrissy still remained more natural looking and not a total airhead and then a few days later it was the third season and she had already made her change. I always thought that this change wasn't until season 4 which is when a lot of people had said but she had changed a lot even in season 3.

By the end of season 3, she was an airhead. I liked the way she was in seasons 1 and 2 better.

I am a huge Chrissy observer. Her looks and personality actually changed at the start of season 3. She started the side ponytail and some real ditzyness by the beginning of that season. Her makeup started getting heavier then too. I think she looked better (and certainly acted better) in season 1 and 2. Her snort laugh also started in 3. I don't think I ever heard her doing that any earlier.

The real platinum hair and worse hair styles began in season 4. The ditsyness got even worse then too. Her looks and attitude seemed so severe in 4, I'm not surprised most people refer to that being the year Chrissy went weird. I noticed it as early as the start of season 3 though, and it was pretty disappointing. She was better before.

So Chrissy goes away and her cousin (i think) Cindy comes in.

Behind the scenes, Jack and Janet hated her --- she who not show up for work due to her son's soccer games and other stuff.

They had a couple of episodes without her. Then she calls themm on the phone teelling them that her cousin will replace her.

I never liked her ever since i saw the E! True hollywood story.
I think Terri was the best out of the 3.

Yeah, there were some changes in the character at the beginning of season 3. I didn't notice anything personality wise, but she had the side ponytail during that season. At the end of season 3, in the very last episodes, she starts adopting the season 4 look with the blonder hair, etc.

In season 4, Chrissy went completely insane. She looked and acted a lot wackier than in the previous seasons.
