... I could not stand Fran. I imagine this has been beaten to death already, but her general attitude stunk on ice. For example, Stu wasn't worthy to feel what she thought was the baby kicking for the first time (as he wasn't the biological father) , but when Mother sent him to Las Vegas she said:
"For God's sake I'm going to have a baby..." and more or less made the baby Stu's responsibility; yet she drew an invisible line. That, and of course her more than blatant blasphemy at Mother's death bed.
Her condescending, conceited and snooty (albeit stereotypical) New England persona was brought into very sharp relief, and was well done. But I couldn't stand her.
Now I absolutely loved Dana, Lucy, hell - I even liked Nadine to a certain degree. But Fran.. blech.
