IIRC it also took them time to integrate TB’s Carly because she was intended to be a short term recast to write the character out. And the actors liked her, the audience didn’t react like they did with Jennifer later, and as @Vee said, the Angel story was a dud. The whole show was pretty much awful when JFP had the most control over it.
Laura Wright also benefitted from a terrible Sonny story/romance, the Reese character.
To me, the losses of Kimberly Simms, Sherry Stringfield, and Beverlee McKinesy were pretty brutal to the watchability of the show. Then follow that up soon after with the Ellen Parker debacle and also Beth Ehlers? Curlee and that writing team did their best, but a more bland Blake, terrible recasts for Mindy and Alexandra (and I love both actors, it just wasn’t the right fit), and then Lucy Cooper overload are just not the same quality and it showed.
