Sue Heck (Eden Sher<\/strong>) is a breath of fresh air, even through her shiny metallic braces, always finding the good in situations and never giving up. She’s a role-model who doesn’t know she is one, and an eternal optimist in a world full of troubles and challenges.<\/p>\n

Even when her family forgets her leap year birthday, Sue is happy and grateful about the leftover cake(s) quickly smashed together and centered by a lit bathroom candle.<\/p>\n

“I got everything I wanted,” she exclaims.<\/p>\n

In watching you Sue\/Eden in this usually clever and clean comedy, we can say the same thing.<\/p>\n
