Yeah... even if the 'bad guys' were still treated as bad guys but caused maybe a flicker of a shift in understanding in the good guys, I'd feel more forgiving. But no.
With Kara, there have been flickers of the character I loved. My best friend is a big Kara fan and I use her as a barometer of when Kara's in character or out--and she bailed on the show this week. Basically Kara's in character only when it's useful for the plot, and even Katee cracked it at one point and said she had no idea what her character motivation was any more. RDM's response? 'That's what makes your performance so wonderful'. Um... I think it's a problem when your lead actress is saying she doesn't understand her character.
