I have to agree with you, New Camper. I think Eileen deserves more episodes, too. While I appreciate the fact that the creators have been giving her more screen time this season, it often feels as if she's a third wheel. For example, in the episode Tants, her sole purpose was to make fake Tants because Mordecai and Rigby didn't know how to use a sewing machine. While I admire how dedicated she was to helping her friends, she didn't exactly play the important role I wish she would have. It was as if all she was there for was to clean up Mordecai and Rigby's mess, something any of the other characters could have done. I guess I just wish we could see an episode where we learn about Eileen's past, something that was never done with Margaret or even High Five Ghost, who's supposed to be a main character. Eileen does have some interesting characteristics, so I imagine that it wouldn't be too hard for the creators to come up with something. She is definitely one of my favorite minor characters.
