Not All Females are Morons. This Character was AWFUL!

Even though this was only 15 episodes long, I had to drop it after only 3. The FL character was absolutely cringe-worthy. This was an embarrassment to female characters and especially those in a lead role, and I felt this made it even more egregious. Women can be silly and flighty as a part of the persona they are playing, but this one was just ridiculous. I couldn't tell whether that is the way the character is written, or if this actress just cannot act. In fact, I was so put off by her performance I couldn't even watch any of the other actors to see if they could redeem this story.

Writers and Directors need to step up and be more responsible, respectful, and aware. This stereotype is not a good look for women. Viewers are looking for characters they can identify with, like, and be interested in. Stories of development and growth in a character are welcome - but this one is a really poor example of the portrayal of a female (especially a lead role).

I need to go back and look at who the writer & director are, review other works by them, and possibly never watch anything they produce again.
