Love me some Daphnee Duplaix.

Jon Lindstrom had the same number of episodes as contract actor Mike Manning..

Jon is recurring and his acting and storyline stink. He should be on less in my opinion.

WHAT?? Jon's been amazing but yeah his story is a dud

I couldn't have agreed more about her being in the majority of episodes. She has been a great lead and foundation, and truly the heart of the show!
