I'm not calling Mike himself a one-time gag, I'm referring to him erasing his multiple personalities as the gag. Here's why: The show since TDWT has been very inconsistent usually because they're trying to pretend some events never happend (*coughcough* TDA *coughcough*) or just forgot it ever happened to begin with. Unless they brought back Mike just to be used as a filler since he's bland without the personalities, there would be a good chance the deal with him erasing the personalities will be forgotten and his personalities will probably still be there inside him. I'm not saying it will happen, but it is possible.

I am aware that living with a disorder does suck; I have some things I have to live with myself that I personally don't want to, but have to deal with it and I know how horrible it is to see that. The problem with that though is "reality" since TDRI has been forgotten and the show is a straight up cartoon now.

My point is stereotype or disorder, they both can be offensive. There could be people from Canada who watch the show, see Ezekiel and say "We Canadians don't talk like 'oot and aboot' or 'soory' or say 'Eh?' all the time." I have seen some Canadians who do have an accent and sometimes say "Eh?" but not all Canadians do. And as far as Lindsay goes, I know some blondes who have been offended from "dumb blonde" jokes and they could easily be offended from seeing her. That's what I'm trying to say. And you're right about that, but it has been a mean-spirited show from the beginning. It just got crueler later on as the series progressed.
