Okay! Yes -- she was a mess before death of Bobby Simone but we're supposed to cut her slack for being a widow.

Buffista Fic: It Could Be Plot Bunnies
Where the Buffistas let their fanfic creative juices flow. May contain erotica.
Yup. Diane Russell. She was an alcoholic when she first got there, then was dry, and always twitchy. I missed that meeting. Then again, I never thought NYPD Blue compared with H:LOTS. I'll take FranknTim over Sipowicz any day.
I love the Sipowicz...I do. But he got all the characterization, well at least till his life became a country song and he lost wife, partner, dog, whateverthe fuck. FrankNTim are a double act.(And I see KayNMunch the same way, obviously...well, not exactly) No disrespect to the other partners. And this is fic... not Erika takes apart PDTV, so maybe I should shut up.But Ms.G is right. Diane was always mental...it just drives me crazy now. I think I'm spoiled.
I love that Kay is a human being, a real live woman, and that she has a personality rather than "quirks". She's from a particular part of the world, there's a particular gestalt in that part of the world, she's prickly and easily put on the defensive; they didn't feel is necessary to base her entire reality on "oh, let's make her a recovering AA type, and hey! an abusive father! Yeah, that'll be great!"
Feh feh feh.
They got the personalities dead to rights on H:LotS. I don't think it's just because I live here, but I also think they captured the personality of the city extraordinarily well.

They absolutely did. I'm really loving watching again now that I live in and love/hate but mostly LOVE the City. I was only here for a year while they were still filming.
I got the Bolanders all over my 'hood--disgruntled, dissappointed middle-aged Hampden white guys with dark senses of humor and soft spots.

Not to mention the Gartys.
Lotsa Feltons in my area.
the Gartys
oi yes. I forgot about him.
The Bayliss' come to shop & eat here but probably don't live here unless they are married. At least it seems like there are no single guys in the neighborhood.
Now i'm a little obsessed with figuring out which neighborhoods the cops lived in according to the show. Why won't they release the rest of the seasons on DVD RIGHT NOW!

Because they're fuckers?
