If by deliriously adorable you mean one crazy fucker, then yeah, she was. She was one of the most deliriously adorable people on the show. Hell, she actually made the CHURCH people look almost normal.

Don't get me wrong; I love how her character was done and I ADORE the actress who played her. I think the main reason I have a hard time NOT being excited she's dead is more for personal reasons than bad portrayal or anything.
