I don't care what anyone says, I considered Juliet to be my favorite female character, her actress could be considered rather robotic but I actually consider that an important aspect of her character, it made her rather creepy in her earlier appearances.
I am however a bit confused by her motivations from the last season finale, she gets killed off simply because... she changed her mind? Uh.... WHY? Didn't she want to stop Jack at first? It was her idea to break out of the submarine and return to the island, but all because she realised that Sawyer still has a thing for Kate (GASP) she suddenly changes her stance completely? I never bought that, I mean I understand what the writers were probably thinking, she didn't want to get replaced by Kate or whatever, which I don't think was gonna happen anyway.
Juliet was unique among the female characters because she was actually capable of extended periods of rational thought and not prone to letting her emotions get the best of her... and yet they had to kill her off in such a totally uncharacteristic and stupid way. It's downright f*cking obvious this was something they hadn't planned and it was a rushed decision because Juliet's actress wanted to do V. Also, I was pretty damn sure Juliet died instantly in the season finale. But then in the new episode they get me excited making me think she would survive... only to have her die mid sentence without any indication that was that fatally wounded. Talk about a f*cking tease, and a very cruel one.
That's my biggest problem with the writing, the writers aren't always prepared for when an actor wants to leave the show and they'll kill the characters off in totally random ways. I mean, I still think they are f*cking full of sh*t about killing Ana Lucia and Libby off not being some spur of the moment response to their actors getting DUIs. I mean how in the f*ck was Libby's death planned? They kept hinting at her backstory, and then they killed her off and never f*cking bothered to explain it. Assh*les.
Walt was a big f*ck up too, they made him such an important plot element and then..... he disappeared, and all because it never crossed their mind that the actor was gonna get older? Jesus, just get another f*ckng actor it's not like we really care. This sh*t needs to be explained.
