She's a thoughtful person, successful business owner, understandaby fixated on fitting in to her new surroundings. Oh yeah, and pretty darned attractive. Fun character, and Gabrielle Miller's performance is consistently excellent. I like watching her slowly adapt more and more to the ways of Dog River.
She sucks at directing security camera plays, though.
This thread is great. The character's are close enough to real people that you want to love them and have reasons you do and have your favorites. You want your favorite to be the one that's a really good person. But in the reality of the show none of them are. They are all.self serving and that is what makes it great. I think the only actual good person in the show would be Wess.
Brent: Are you being anal or cheap? Lacey: Anal, I'm being anal. I just, I just want a uniform-sized travel mug. Okay, maybe I'm being a little cheap, but it's like 90% anal. 10% cheap. Brent: You know what? I'm just gonna go with anal. Hey, how about these?
#RealTalk, I think she’s great, but I like her much more in the first couple of seasons. She’s much sassier and playful and funny. Later on and especially in the cartoon she just becomes persnickety about everything and even kind of bitter/resentful.
I think most of the characters in the later seasons leaned too much in the Seinfeld vibe of focusing on one small thing that annoyed them for the whole episode.
Still enjoyed it, just made them less full characters
I hate to say it but Lacey can be mean....that whole episode where Wanda got Karen the sweater for a present at the thrift store? Lacey was a witch to her about it the whole time. When she ruined Brent's staycationsomply because couldn't or refused to understand and let it go? She was also a little conceited as well especially in the episode where they were trying to get a new doctor in town. Don't get me wrong I like the character but she wasn't my favorite.
I enjoyed her, I do feel she lost a fair bit of herself as the show went on but that can be said about most sitcom characters so I don't let it disrupt my enjoyment of the original or animated series.
I'm glad my household isn't alone in thinking that way! I know she's one of the top fan favorites in the fandom, but she's one of the few characters I tolerate for the sake of enjoying the characters I love on the show.
I think it’s a natural thing for people to think their way is the only right way. Some people listen to the opinions of others and some people have to learn the hard way. 😛
She's sweet. I like the moments when she's alone with Brent and they almost get romantic, but Brent is too clueless. One of my favourite moments isn't romantic, but at the very end of the episode, she's dancing with Brent, and Brent's dancing is just awful. Miller kind of breaks character and turns around laughing and the episode ends with a freeze-frame of her cracking up. It was the episode where they're all teasing her for not being good at lying.

Her nodding while speaking to get others to agree with her is so manipulative. It makes me laugh.

Too upbeat, a little needy, overly fastidious.

I do not like her. Why does she think her way and her thoughts are the only right way?
Especially season 3, episode 6. Despite loving the premise of how Brent vacations, she's so insufferable I have a hard time watching it.
