This coffee maker first appeared in S2 E3 “Double Standard” … and it would remain there through the end of season 4 for the entire time the series takes place in the Eastland cafeteria.

SPEAKING OF WHICH! We never did get to mention her work on HBO’s “Deadwood” (23 episodes from 2004-2006)… BTW, her character’s name was ‘Jewel.’
