Recurring Characters You Wish Made More Appearances


The show had some great regulars around Cabot Cove, but for some reason they fizzled out over the last three seasons. Who are some people you'd like to see in a lot more episodes?

-I wish there had been more episodes featuring Jessica, Seth, and Amos. Those are some of my favorite of the series.
-More of Amos overall. I can't believe he only appeared in 19 episodes- it seemed like way more.
- More Eve Simpson. I really liked her dynamic with Jessica.
- More Micheal Hagarty. Len Cairou and Angela Lansbury were friends and coworkers before the show started, which is why he guest starred on the show in the first place. He didn't make enough appearances.

dennis stanton..
he was such a debonair character.. i so love a kind-hearted semi-reformed jewel theif with a fairly good moral compass.. ^_^
as a character of course.. ^_-
he should have had his own show.. as much as i have loved this show watching when i was very little with family.. i recently watched some of the stanton-centric episodes.. i found them fantastic.. he was brilliant.. loved his style.. especially his swift umbrella of tricks.. his old-skool 'gentleman jewel theif' persona was excellent & i found the episodes wonderful tiny worlds of escapism.. especially considering the small scale.. i think that is what helped the character soar..
seriously.. his own show would have been great.. is there anyone like this in a show.. british or otherwise?
well a new one would do well.. especially set in say the 60s-90s..
he was good living in SF.. any city would have been good.. that's what the appeal of the debonair international mysterious yet kind-hearted jewel theif is.. hehe..
a very well acted part for the series.. so cheers to the character of dennis stanton!

:::: love and peace ::::
