Is anyone else a little annoyed by Kaitlin Olson?


Dee has never been my favorite character (in fact she's always been my least favorite) and I think I've finally figured out the main reason why. Kaitlin Olson has a really irritating tendency to get all wide eyed and start repeating what other characters are saying. It doesn't feel like part of the script either so I would bet she just does it on her own a lot of the time.

It's really hard to explain any better than that but basically I feel as if she "over acts" and tries too hard to be funny to make up for the fact that her character is terribly unfunny to begin with. All these thoughts have been reinforced with the commercials I've been seeing for her new show "The Mick". She's doing the exact same thing which leads me to believe that's just her acting style and I don't like it. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed or if I'm just nitpicking.

Dee is definitely my least favorite as well. The only thing she's really good for is being a comedic punching bag for the guys. And her series of unfortunate events are funny, but only because something terrible is happening to her.

Other than that, I don't think her character provides much value to the mix. They basically made her "the useless chick."

Yeah and shes a bird!


Shes the only one of the gang besides devito that i seen in anything before sunny. I member her as trailer in the drew carry show 😜 And her character wasnt very likable in that too.

How could you not LOVE Frank, I mean a leather couch gave birth to him! I laughed for 30 minutes straight after seeing that

reply

Completely agreed. I laugh at Dee a lot, but it's pretty much always because one of the guys (whom are all hilarious) makes a joke at her expense or something awful happens to her

reply

Must be just you 3, most find her hilarious and so do i.

She have gold moments sorry if you can't see it.

i like dee/kaitlyn too! hoping the mick is hilarious because she's the reason im willing to give the show a try.

reply

When they give her something to really sink her teeth into I think she's pretty good. Often times her role is just to be the butt of the guys' jokes. But when she's able to branch out I like what she brings to the table.

Dont tell me you're innocent. Because it insults my intelligence and makes me very angry.

Yeah she's basically a punching bag for the guys, other than that I find her to be pretty annoying. Her voice is like nails on a chalk board, so is Charlie's but he makes up for it with being funny, she does not.

Love Sweet Dee and Kaitlin Olson. Actually, I think she is incredibly underrated as a comedic actress.

I think she pulls her weight on the show. Danny DeVito is the only one I can't stand on the show, which is a shame because I love a lot of his movies.
