Well, that's a wrap. This show can't make it without her.

Replace her with Kate Upton. Problem solved.

Finally, jesus. Tired of her same exact damn character every year with just a different accent. People think she makes the show but I'd argue she dragged it down big time the last couple seasons.

Loved her in the first 2 seasons. Not so much in the last 2.

She's been pretty terrible overall throughout the series IMO.*

Definitely better for the show. Her characters were all the same. Need to get some diversity going

No surprise. This is the reason why her character got a happy ending on Freakshow.

so really she just passed on the next season. the title made me think she like quit during shooting and such.

this is true. S1 she was rarely in compared to the following seasons. i'd go so far as to say she was excellent in S2 and probably the only good thing about S3 and she had total crap to work with (writing/plot wise). She was good enough in S4. not bad, not outstanding.

That's her best season by far. But man, we jumped ship on S4. What a bore.

She's been great but it's time for somone new to be the focus of the show.

That would be the horrendous writing that did that

I completely agree with this. I hate the internet fan girls who think she's so "amazeballs." She was rarely in Season 1, she hit a stride in Season 2 (although Lily Rabe really stole that show), and she was meh in Season 3 and 4.

I think she's been great, but I also think it's time for a change. I'm happy with some of the admissions the show has gotten like Matt Bomer. I'm not disappointed in both sides moving on.

She was supporting character in Season 1 and was great... she was pretty good in Season 2... Season 3 was just an all around shitshow, and I thought she was the worst part (well, her or Sarah Paulson) of Season 4.

I think the show will be better off without her, or at least without her as the lead.

She kind of got a happy ending in season 2, when her character was rescued and eventually died at peace.

No more singing period, by anyone, in any accent.
