Day 12 of 30 Day Television Challenge

The prompt: Character that you initially found annoying but you grew to love

This is not as easy as it looks..

I'm going with...

Wes in Angel. (Note - it was in Angel that I initially found Wes annoying and grew to love the character. Actually I think Wes was possibly the best developed character on Angel.).

It's a combination of half-decent memory, passable search engine skills, and slick presentation.

I remembered watching Frank's home movies from Indiana, so I searched for "Frank Burns home movies" on the internet, and found the episode.

I remembered Margaret's big speech was from Mariette Hartley's episode, and the entire Hawkeye/Hot Lips argument was waiting for me on the internet. (Simple cut and paste.)

As Ted Baxter once said: "You know what's great about this country? You don't have to be witty or clever, as long as you can hire someone who is."

Meanwhile - I watched all the episodes multiple times and wrote a paper, transcribing various speeches from episodes re-winded to get it right in the 1980s, when I was writing a paper on it. And I can't remember Frank's home movies or the speech or that Mariette Hartley was even in it.

I just remember it generally.

ETA: Do you have a photographic memory or are just some kind of search engine demon? LOL! Going with search engine demon, cjl.
