She was deliberately given less flattering makeup and wardrobe, though. @beth, that bit about Vivian Vance is false, according to Snopes (http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/vance.asp).

They say that the arguing is part of the design process. Popular Mechanics has done a number of articles on them (and by them) and there doesn't seem to be a lot of tension.

This tension is sometimes very visible on the show. They certainly have different personalities. Adam is fun and spontanious and Jamie is a sad, serious bastard.
