Just started watching, it's decent.
But I'm tired of these lead femal characters in movies/tv/books who have some goal, don't care about anything else, don't care who they hurt, and do nothing but ignore all the people trying to help.
Yea yea you're strong and independent; Jesus frick realize some people know more than you and give good advice...

"Oh no Uncle, don't kill that guy, he definitely won't come back to hurt you..."

Stupid arse girl

I'm still trying to figure out how the worst actor on the show got the lead role.

Would you rather have a female lead who stands around waiting for a sparkly vampire to save her?

This is why I like Etta on Fringe. She's a child of the post-apocalypse that fully grasps her situation and is appropriately efficient and ruthless.

that PISSED ME OFF. And yes I get it she's hot, but her eyes are super derpy, and her stubbornness brings her down from an 8.5 to a 7.6 IMO.


***spoilers***




but then she wasted those two guards, which was redeemable I guess. Although I'm calling bullshite on her overpowering the dude on top of her

Didn't catch episode 4 tonight. How long does it usually take to be up on Hulu?

I'd rather have a lead that kicks arse and takes names later, but has sense enough to know what to do for the greater good of the plot. That's not to say she won't make mistakes but at least don't present her to be a moron of epic proportions.

My issue with her is she always looks so sad. Looks like she could bust out in tears at any moment. This and she makes dumb choices.

She is BY FAR the worst actress on the show. Everyone outshines her, even her derp derp brother.
