The show can definitely use her, but it could use a less-boring leading man more.

I have only watched the pilot of this show so I know this was originally played by Casey Wilson, but without the “bubbily” part.

- Thanks,
  I thought that I remembered a sister from the opening episode and I didn’t get the impression that she was “business savy”. I thought she was much younger – like a late teen or something.
  Is this supposed to be the same character.
