I can't stand her, there are so many other supporting characters that are interesting, but hers? Nope.. I get it that they didn't develop her character in season 1 even tho they had plenty of room with a whopping 20+ episodes. But by season 2 it's just annoying to see her.
These are the things that just bother me about the character:
She seems confused all the time and is curious and wanting to know what is going on, but then when she is told, or brought into the fold she gets distant and seems to want to shut down. every other character seems to love and want to protect Nick more than she does. spoiler * at the beginning of season 3 when they got nick back from going crazy at the bar and he had killed someone everyone was more than willing to lie for/protect nick, but she stopped and asked if everyone was "ok" with the choice to cover for nick... Why would she hesitate to cover for someone that she is supposed to love so much?!? Then in the same episode when Rosalie calls dimwit Juliet to tell her that the detectives had just finished questioning her, the doorbell rings and Juliet lets nick answer it... Where he then finds out that while poisoned he killed a man... Ummm ok, Why did dimwit Juliet allow him to answer the door and find out that way? She seemed perfectly fine with letting him find out then she should have told him herself! (bad unloving girlfriend!) but whatever; that's how they wrote the character... Oh and good job on making her have a Latino heritage. I literally rolled my eyes when the show played THAT card... She is the whitest Latino I've ever seen.
there are also things about the actress that I can not stand. For starters she is ugly in most lighting, there are only a few well lit moments on the show where she doesn't look like a skeleton. Her eyebrows annoy the hell out of me, when she overacts her eyebrows start to look like windshield wipers!! She has no emotional range at all. In season 3 episode 1 when Nick was kidnapped and taken on a plane she literally yells out "no no no" as if THAT was going to stop the plane from taking off, but then she stands there emotionless and stares off at the plane. No tears, no anguish, no anger... Just blankly staring as if she is waiting for the director to yell "cut".
Can I mention the chemistry between nick and Juliet?! I can't because there is none! Monroe and Rosalie are well written and have more love and chemistry so I know that the writers CAN write good romantic scenes... They just choose not to for nick and Juliet. I hope they kill off Juliet, Nick can have. A season of remorse and guilt, coupled with going into a dark place and then in a season introduce a new more passionate fiery character (preferably one who can act) someone who actually compliments his character like Rosalie compliments Monroe. Make her a fellow Grimm, one who can kick butt alongside him, or make her a total bookworm who he has to live a double life with. Either way just get rid of Juliet!!!
