[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 418021, member: 57984"] Yes, I catch Bunky here-and-there during my re-watches. That explanation that Linda's increased confidence messed up her performance makes about as much sense as any other explanation. But its timing aligning with the outset of S.A.D. still leads me to assume Linda was told something by someone behind the scenes which encouraged it. Besides, Linda is an objective, intelligent person (J Z Knight notwithstanding) so how could she possibly think her eventual frenetic falsetto conveyed greater strength? (Let alone her shrugging "devastated" shtick which became her automated default setting for her acting). In the first couple of seasons, Linda spoke like an adult. Later, her delivery became infantilized (sometimes almost akin to baby-talk). At least we have that A-V malformation to explain it all.
