I got the impression that the actor was playing her role the way she was directed to. Juliette wasn't flamboyant or demonstrative. She was more reserved, but still sensitive. Adalind, in comparison, was flamboyant and demonstrative. She said whatever she was thinking, at times to her own detriment. And whatever emotion she was feeling was clearly expressed unless she was intentionally masking it out of necessity. Adalind had been in Nick’s house for one day when she went off on him about the FBI showing up, until realizing she needed to rein it in.
One characterization isn’t necessarily better than the other, they’re just different. Nick didn’t appear to prefer Adalind’s more animated expressions, and actually, Adalind mellowed out to be more in line with Nick’s ho-hum demeanor.
I thought Juliette was boring in general, but then, I thought Nick and team Grimm were boring in general. So six of one, half a dozen of the other. Hells bells, I thought Meisner was boring in S5. Maybe there’s something in the Portland water supply. *grin*
