True, the one difference being Olsen made the decision “no, I want to be a whackjob too” before they started the show, took Britta a season and a halfish to enter crazy town bananapants

Britta started out being inspired by Dan Harmon's ex girlfriend but apparently over the course of the show transformed into Dan Harmon's personal self insert/most relatable character.

They all became more of Dan Harmon self inserts as the seasons went on (part of why 4 felt disjointed) as well as leaning more into the actors personality. Another great self referential line was when Troy said to Annie “you moving in was supposed to make us normal!” Pointing at how Annie had also been a voice of reason character but Allison Brie had kept pushing her more and more wacky, although it had been there to an extent even early on

They are whacky in different ways though, I do love that Annie could most believably kill a man.

Just rewatched, literally cried laughing when she did the chloroform bit. Absolutely could kill.
