Sam was deemed "funnier to write for" instead of Brick or Anne Maria, apparently. Make of that what you will, I will never understand that. Most of those other choices were infinitely better, though Owen's still one I wouldn't care for. He didn't get in full-time because Scott McCord was tied up elsewhere.

There's another infinitely better idea. I think Brick's absence bummed out a lot of people, he's one of the few from ROTI that nearly everyone seems to agree was a great character. Alas.

Sam was the most nonsensical addition to the season, yes. Whatever their reasoning, he is not an All-Star and had no purpose here, that's just the reality of it. I haven't seen anyone say anything nice about how he was used here in this season. Not because they hate him necessarily, but because he simply didn't belong here, as an All-Star.

Yeah, there's a joke they haven't run into the ground, I agree. >_<

Not big on Blaineley personally. But if she's gonna replace anyone, replace Chris.

OK, now that's a good idea. :D
