I find Judy extremely mean; they mostly made her that way for the humor's sake though; but if it wasn't for the humor, I'd hate her guts. This way she was just a funny character who just likes to neglect her little daughter.

I guess she was nagging all the time only because her mom used to do that to her. That can't justify how she treated Monica, of course. I want to believe she wanted the best for Monica - that's why she NEVER stopped nagging, but it's hard taken that that is what she did all the time and sometimes she'd even forget that she gave birth to her. Those moments were not so funny.

Definitely. It was completely unfair and Monica did nothing to deserve it. I'd be lying if I said I didn't find some of the jokes to come out of it hilarious though. And that scene where her dad came to see her after the break up was super adorable.

Yeah, yesterday I saw one particular episode where I do think Judy was just awful. It's actually the only episode where I thought she was not funny, only mean.
When she hires Monica to make some dinner for her and her party or whatever, and she had the lasagnas on the freezer.
And the worst part for me was that she was actually enjoying it. I mean, she bet with Jack that Monica was going to screw something up! And when Monica told her about the fingernail on the food, she just laughed! :S

By the way, I do not think that Jack loved Monica less, only Judy. Jack seemed to have more faith in Monica than Judy. I think that Jack only wasn't aware that Monica felt that way (he didn't seem to be the perceptive kinda person).

Totally agree. Jack was more worried about having fun and living a good, calm life. He love both of his children and I have never had the feeling he treated Moncia like Judy did.

Sure, I actually never thought of that before. If you think, there are lots of cute dad-daughter scenes with Jack and Monica. And so few/none with Judy and her.
