I've actually played with the Pleasantview characters more too. I've played them through a couple of times, up to the next generation, but this is my first real play-through of Strangetown (to play all of the characters, anyway).
I'm glad to hear that you're looking forward to them. :) I'm really going to try to post the next Strangetown update before I head out of town for the weekend. There'll be more Pascal and Nervous in the second half (it picks up right where it left off, with Pascal arriving at the Specter Estate), and the next chapter should also feature Nervous quite heavily, if I don't decide to switch the order of the next few chapters. I've been considering it, but I don't think I will, so there should be plenty of Nervous to go around.
Nervous Subject was the first Maxis sim to capture my attention, and he remains one of my favourites (though he has some competition from several others - especially a certain Grunt). Nervous retains the honour of being featured on my user icon, though, since he's just so... iconic.
