Wilt was the reason I started watching the show in the first place, and I'd stop watching if he left, seriously. I know that "Frankie My Dear" worked without him, BUT that was just ONE episode, and while single episodes can exist with or without certain main characters, to just delete that character from the entire show would be a disaster. "The Big LeBlooski" was a very funny and enjoyable episode for me, even though Frankie did not appear in it, not even once, and "Infernal Slumber" was even better, despite the fact that neither Frankie, Madame Foster or Mr. Herriman made an appearance in THAT episode. However, this does not by any means indicate that the show as a whole could go carry on just as well if Frankie, Madame Foster or Mr. Herriman were removed from the cast, and I really think that the quality would suffer to the extent that I'd still stop watching it. I would certainly NOT make any claim that the show would be just as good, or that it would "work for me", if Frankie left, based on a few episodes in which she did not appear, and I by no means am as fond of Frankie as some of the male forum members, even though she is my second favorite character.
Besides, if Wilt DID leave the show, Frankie would not be far behind, because without his help around the house and running errands, she would not be able to handle the stress and would soon break down. I don't even think that she has ever stopped and thought about just how indispensible Wilt is around the house.
