I posted this article a few weeks ago about Frankie suffering quite badly from acne, probably the main reason why we've lost his talking to the camera scenes in MITM

What are people's general thoughts in this. I actually have to agree with this article, I think that it probably is to do with Frankie's acne problems, but I really wish they wouldn't let it affect the way the show runs. Nearly every child will get acne at one point in his life, where it be a few spots, or an entire face full - sadly Frankie has got the latter of those two.
I feel that this "move" by FOX to show no more close ups is typical of US TV programmes, to make everyone "beautiful". Now you can't hide the fact that that is what US casters do. Look at CSI, no ugly people there, Friends, no ugly, The OC, no ugly, Smallville, no ugly - I could go on
I thought MITM was the exception in this rule, not choosing particullary "beautiful" people to its cast - maybe I was wrong....
