I know they probably billed the biggest names as special guest stars, so they'd avoid paying them higher being billed as a main cast but goddamn Denise will forever be more iconic than that irrelevant frat guy Earl. Denise had so many scenes since her appearance, probably more than some of the regulars (even Pete!) so it just doesn't make sense. Why did they even put Earl as a regular when Jennifer and Predatory Lez ended up having more episodes. I never saw that coming.
