Jill Taylor... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone else think she was a HUGE hypocrite?? It seems like every other episode she says/does something hypocritical. I can only think of one right now, and it's where Jill opens her own banking account;

Tim: So, the money I make is ours, but the money you make is yours?

Jill: Yep.

she acts like a liberated woman throughout the run of the show, so why would she feel that Tim should be the breadwinner? If she didn't really think that, then it was a pure hypocritical thing, correct?

Don't get me wrong, I like the character of Jill, she's funny;

Tim: What is this ugly lump on my neck?
Jill: Your head.

...but I just wanted to point this out.

I think she bossed Tim around too much. I always felt so sorry for Tim.

Yeah, that's definitely true too.

well i guess she was a little hipocritical but thats what makes Jill so funny. I mean if she was perfect then she would be boring am i right

Well, i think that Tim and Jill have their differents ways to show how women and men are that... different. And they used to make jokes to each other. And I think that are an example how a marriage can survive.

I think the whole point of HI was that Tim was surrounded by smarter people - Al at work and Jill at home (not to mention Wilson next door!). That made for a lot of funny situations, but I agree that Jill could be a bit much at times - especially in the later seasons.

I liked when Jill left town on the day of her surprise party to look for her old piano that had a aquarium and a trainset in it.
