It is annoying Steel, and old, and I'm personally tired if it ... doesn't mean I am going to start or even participated in some grass roots email campaign to boycott. I watch very little tv to really care.

First, it's a character on a fictional tv show, they can make him be whatever they want him to be. I don't see that tv shows in general put any more research or respect into characters of other religious persuasions. Second, probably only half of all Mormons are hardcore/active LDS so somebody who is not portrayed as a perfectly faithful LDS on a tv show is probably representative of a good number of Mormons.
