Debbie Berwick?


What happened to the character? Did the actress quit or was the character written out? I'm curious because her sub-plots with Pim were the only parts of the show I enjoyed. Anyone know the reason for the character's unexpected disappearance after the first season?

I don't think it has ever been stated. Debbie was honestly my favorite character on the show, but now that I think about it Season 1 had a set of supporting characters, and then Season 2 had an entirely new set of recurring characters that kind of changed the feel of the show, so I just thought Debbie was a casualty, as well as the teacher played by Suzanne Krull (who was hilarious).

Agreed. She was the only part of the show that I liked. I loved when she got the better of Pim. Was always rooting for her. When she left, the show died.

I also liked Debbie Berwick. Curiously, I thought her surname was Berkowitz and half expected Pim to call her "perkowitz".
