[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 437302, member: 27"] Jolene had all those stories about her extended Southern family that gave her built-in jokes/comedy material, background that all the other characters lacked. I think that was part of what made people take to her more rapidly. They vaguely resembled Rose's St. Olaf stories on [I]Golden Girls[/I] and Laverne's stories about Hickory on [I]Empty Nest, [/I]so maybe it was an aspect of the character that the writers had seen work well elsewhere and "borrowed" it.
