Awwwwwwwwww

I was going to quote that episode. I wonder what happened to Dr. Nick? You don't see a lot of him anymore.

 

Characters go in and out of fashion all the time. The writers fall in love with a character, but they get sick of him for a while and leave him on the back bencher - like the sea captain during seasons 5 & 6, or Troy McClure in 7 & 8 (of course, the writers couldn't bring him back now even if they wanted to... unfortunately).

I mean, Rev. Lovejoy was pretty much completely out of action for about 4 years, but they seem to have brought him back a bit more since Season 20 (perhaps because of the more family-orientated plot lines, I dunno).
