Em, she talked about the switch on the feature commentary on one episode of Season 2. It's the one where Kim runs away from the wrecked police SUV and stupidly hides in the wilds, leading to the equally stupid "mountain man kidnapping her" story line.
By the way, also on the commentary with Penny is Joel Surnow (I believe), and when they show Kim running from the wrecked SUV, as her ta-ta's are bouncing, he says "Hey, guys watching this? You're welcome."
Oh really? I didn't watch the commentary on season 2. Evidently many got hooked on the show like me during season 4 and then when the season ended rushed the libraries to check out the previous ones. Anyway when I had season 2 didn't have enough time to check out the commentary. I'll have to get it and watch.

I hope she does not get kidnapped this season, or I will have to find something else to do. :) One good thing about watching the seasons on DVD, you can Fast forward during certain scenes.
