I really like this show and don't really feel a pregnancy fits in with Mary's character. Unfortunately, it's life and we have to deal with it. I also really thought that Marshall was in love with her so having him in a serious relationship is a bummer. I hope Brandi is marrying the rich guy. I can't recall his name but he is so right for her.
