The original morgue assistant was a nobody character that detracted from his scenes. Maybe it was the actor or maybe how the character was written.
The new guy at least had some personality.
I liked the episode where he crawls out on the ledge to keep the kid from jumping off.
That episode, for me, went a long way to justify the character and actor.
Plus little Timmy the computer whiz was losing his innocence and bringing in a new bright eyed, bushy tailed character kind of made sense at the time.
“I liked the episode where he crawls out on the ledge to keep the kid from jumping off.”
It has to be at least remotely plausible that the man they have cast would ever, in a million years, do such a thing.
It’s like casting PeeWee Herman as a SEAL.
