Reva's introduction to the show was as Billy's ex-wife, brought to town by Alan to break up Billy and Vanessa's relationship.
Gee, thanks for pointing that out about Mindy and Rusty, as if they didn't make me want to hurl without realizing they had that relationship. 😁 Unfortunately, Mindy went through a bunch of bad/boring romantic entanglements during the mid to late 80s--Kurt, Rusty, Frank, Will--they didn't seem to know what to do with her. I've said it before, I believe her best romantic partner was Rick and have always felt they missed an opportunity there.
It's funny how Frank was chem tested with virtually everyone in a skirt, but in the end they had to literally import Eleni for him.
I adored Carl. I loved that he had a prominent New York accent, which made total sense since AM grew up in NYC. Besides having strong chemistry, he and Beth could play humorous scenes really well.
I agree that they shouldn't have tossed AM and Harley so quickly. This is a mistake they made a lot during this period--young characters burned through lovers/spouses SO quickly. They could have nursed a few more of them into long-term relationships that lasted for many years, like Reva and Josh or Phillip and Beth.
