[QUOTE="the-lost-son, post: 284414, member: 672"] My thoughts as well. The character was best in the first two seasons and the acting goes along with that. After that the character becomes more and more one-dimensional, repetitive (like the whole series by the way) and increasingly limits the portrayal of Evan's acting range. The whispery tone is repeated frequently at a certain point. I can see why people dislike this. But I blame it more on the writers' lack of different storytelling. The character seems to be stuck in the same situations, like commenting on the actions of others. It reminds me of Donna Reed. During her short stint in Dallas she applied this whispery tone to comment in a dignified way all the time. But she wasn't given any other situation to show the multitude of her acting skills either. Funny, I know that Dallas wanted to copy Dynasty at a certain point. I just now realized the tried it also by the acting of their lead cast. [/QUOTE]
