[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 405689, member: 5079"] Sometimes surprisingly large. I just passed the S3 episode where Mary's old boyfriend, Tom, visits and she finds him hard to resist. The episode establishes that Mary last saw Tom two and a half years earlier -- which would be just when she was engaged to Bill, last seen in the first episode. I have to assume the episode was written with the intention of bringing back Mary's former fiancé; maybe the actor wasn't available, maybe someone remembered he was a goober with no chemistry with Mary, or maybe someone remembered he was the actor who threw his script on the ground. Thus a new actor playing a previously unmentioned character, but that's one heck of a retcon. [/QUOTE]
