It's funny, because I had kinda the same experience (back when S1 started) - and then, sometime later, re-watched the pilot and was just totally thrown by how different the original Mitchell was. Like watching the original pilot of Buffy with a different Willow. (Or, like someone else playing Spike.)
*loves Mitchell*
(Also love Annie - liked pilot!Annie a lot, but I *adore* show!Annie. ♥)
I'm enjoying the new Annie, but that did feel like more of an adjustment at first because she seemed a bit more kind of bubbly and dorky compared to the rather snappy Scottish version in the pilot :P
Oh I *know*! Pilot!Annie was probably my favourite character of the pilot, and New!Annie took a while to get used to. Now, though, I wouldn't ever change back, because Annie is just Annie, and I love her to bits! :)
