Frankie definitely is refreshing in that sense. The whole "girl power" thing was fresh when it started, but it has become a cliche' in itself. Frankie avoids those by simply being a great character. She's kind and warm, yet has a temper and sense of morality. She's a very hard worker, yet she's laid back and casual. And she has just enough qwerks (COOKIES!) to make an already great character even more fun to tune in and watch.

Well the nice thing about Frankie is even though she doesn't flaunt or act like she's "all that", at least she would have reason to flaunt it because she IS all that. Most women who act like their beautiful and perfect are hollow and snotty on the inside, there's nothing beautiful or admirable on the inside about them.

Frankie is beautiful inside and out, she just can't always see the latter. The great thing is though she's a sweet heart through and through and always tries to be kind and understanding with others. In short, she really stands up for treating others respectively and stands up for herself when she deals with someone unreasonable.

She almost always gives Bloo or Herriman lip because in truth, they treat her no differently. But Frankie will always try and be nice when it comes to people she knows are genuinely good like Mac, Wilt, Eduardo etc.

I agree with Cass. I don't think Frankie is unusually insecure at all. Most people would be at least a little nervous about going on a date with someone they just met, who they think is very attractive. It's pretty normal to worry about measuring up and what they'll think of you.

I'd also have to agree that the driver's license thing was just supposed to be funny, because everyone's familiar with the "horrible license picture" phenom.

And yeah, the whole "arrogant vixen" thing is very unappealing; it's become an unflattering gender stereotype in itself.

I don't think she's "unusually insecure" but I do think she has a bit of it. Considering her choice of clothes for her dates, not just on the basis of her being nervous for her date.

And the license picture thing I was simply asking out of curiosity, it was after all a WEIRD face.

Which was what I was trying to say in my original post: That Frankie looks sexy - even when making faces!

I can relate, not on the fact part but on something else. I found Frankie to look pretty sexy when she was covered in butter in the movie theater in "Cheese A go-go". It was a brief moment and I know Frankie really didn't enjoy having butter globbed all over her.

But I found it rather cute looking on her and found it a quite becoming look on sweet Frankie

LOL! It is hard to see Frankie have a bad day by getting dirt and/or food stuffs on her but I do have to say that in "Bloooooo" when Frankie was all wet, covered in mud and scared out of her wits, I just wanted to give her a big hug. I don't think she gets enough of those.

Cassini90125 · 06-04-2007, 12:15 PM

That much is certain. I'd love to give her one right now, or anytime she wants, whether she's covered in mud or not.

My theory is that she was doing her Duchess impression for Kathy when the camera snapped.
