More like "regressed" ... the more I dwell on it, the more I convince myself we're seeing a return of Baby Scooter, at least in terms of personality and voice.

I don't think that is really a bad thing :smile:(but then I liked and knew him a lot more as a baby than as an adult since I hardly saw any of TMS when I was little)..at least he is getting some sort of character again, he seemed a little lost lately...

Well, he seems to be more of a background, one liner type character. TOO one dimensional. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing more dimensions out of him.

Must ... resist ... Krishna ... joke ... not ... resisting ... well ...

Edit: I remember TMS, but as a geek, I preferred geek Scooter to suck-up Scooter.

I would prefer any Scooter to no Scooter at all. I just think they had had the voice right. And then all of a sudden it wasnt.

They'd have to find a performer for the puppet they would have to build for her and with her go-fer geek brother relapsing into a mode unseen for years (i.e. he's becoming less of a main character again), what would Skeeter do once she was to appear?
Make him more of a main character :smile: Actually I think he going forward not back:excited:

I think bringing in a Skeeter Muppet would do nothing but help push Scooter to the forefront.

but the best part is she can evolve into whatever they want her to be without a big story
