How come Kristen Johnston never really became the breakout star?


At least among the supporting cast? I know that she has a role on Mom now, but one would figure that her career could've been bigger (a la Joseph Gordon Levitt) following 3rd Rock... She had a ditsy slapstick shtick that was quite similar to what Rebel Wilson or Melissa McCarthy is doing these days.
