She was a spitfire and entertaining pre-Jack. Plus, while I thought she was a good actress.. I certainly didn't think she deserved all the Emmy accolades either, but I figure it's all in the eye of the beholder in terms of acting talent.
May 4, 20187 yr Member Pairing Carly with Jack (and vice-versa) was not a bad idea. But having them marry (and marry, and marry again) was where the show went wrong. Even if the show had had them marry and divorce once, Jack and Carly should have remained soulmates who would always WANT to be together -- and who would always have each other's backs whenever one or the other was in trouble -- but who knew that a marriage or re-marriage between them would never work.

So basically like Bob and Lisa. Yeah, I always thought Jack and Carly should have divorced.. stayed friends while both had relationships with others.. then during the nine months the show had to conclude stories.. worked them back into each other's romantic orbit and reconcile before the show ended.
