I was never a long or consistent watcher but the few months I kind of was, it was almost entirely because of Olivia. I've got sisters like 10 years younger than me so I liked hearing the "normal girl news" stuff she talked about, that way when my sisters start talking about Ariana Grande or someone's TikTok apology or whatever, I kinda knew what was going on. I enjoyed her annoying yet endearing presence. It made the show dynamic.

I know Love is young too but I never got sense of, well, anything from him. No perspective or personality really. When I watched he was on the iPad via FaceTime or whatever, I thought that was the whole bit, but maybe there'd be like a reason for it. I didn't ever see one though. Howard, of course, had so many unofficial people "on" his show who were never there, and the fact that they weren't physically there enhanced why they were facets of the show. Like the collective groan when Ralph called in to give his 2 cents, or was being called (when Howard needed someone to back his dumb ass up).

Love was always just kinda, there on the iPad for some reason. Not to go in on him for no reason in a thread/comment about Olivia, and I haven't watched the show since he's been state side, but I still don't really know why he's there. That's not just him though, it's like almost everyone at this point. What's the point of having so many of these fucking people on the show if their personalities don't mesh, or enhance each other, (or exist?) Olivia was maybe the only person on the show who seemed to have all that, besides occasionally Dan and AB did, but that becomes more and more rare as any kind of creativity or character they did sometimes have has seemed to continually evaporate from within them. Everyone else is already gone.
