fully came back, only really watched clips when JJ came back. I miss Sarah as Carly, loved her Carly,loved it even when I really didn't like her she always pulled me in.
Tamara was in probably my fave couple on that show that being C&C (Courtney and Carly). She was just awesome and it was great to see her grow and again when I didn't like her she pulled me in just before I broke.
Gennifer wasn't on long enough for me.
Laura's Carly was just to brash and had NO vulnerability whatsoever. The one time I saw "my Carly" in her was when Michael was going to jail. She was fantastic and those are the scenes that won her an Emmy. I happen to catch those one day and thought, man she finally got who Carly is and lo and behold it was a momentary lapse seemingly as everything I saw her in after was the same unsympathetic Carly. Oh and don't even get me started on the monstrosity that is/was Carjax.
