User blog comment:QueenBuffy/Juliette a "blah" character?/@comment-24.45.128.106-20130508235701

My problem with Juliet is that she is too conflicting. She's impatient, sneaky, demanding & yet controlling. I'm not talking about the actress but how the character is being written. Nick's had to be secretive to be protective of her. He's not good at it, he wants to share his info with her. As a police officer she should recognize boundaries. However, she's not being secretive to be protective, she's just plain sneaky. She isn't a timid person but whenever she does things she instinctly is secretive (looking up the accident Nick's mother was in, going to the witch etc.).

She's not a good listener she would rather state what's on her mind than listen to others. She's a Vet. They are supposedly patient & tolerant of animals & should be more recognizable of primal instincts. She should have recognized that the cat was not acting normal. In addition, every time one of the main characters try to explain the cat, she dismisses it. Does she really want to learn? No. How many times have Monroe & Rosalee try to explain it to her? She waves her hand and states repeatedly she is sick of everyone telling her about the cat. So, she doesn't want to listen does she?

She supposedly couldn't be around Nick who has known her for many years when her memory was lost. She couldn't trust him & felt uncomfortable with him. Yet, turn around  she is so guilble she spills the beans about the trailer to someone she hasn't even known for less than a day. A stranger she who she never really spends time with nor does she ever again. Even someone with or without memory loss should find it odd someone would be asking her such questions about a trailer she doesn't own. I would feel I was getting pumped for information not her.

She calls up Monroe without a hestitation and asks him questions instead of Nick. She gets scared witless with the deep hole opening up in her house. If her memory is coming back she should be remembering the attacks that took place in the house too, yet she wants to remain in the house by herself. She somehow thinks nothing will affect her. She then goes to this witch who makes her a concoction she takes without a moment's hestitation but balks & acts up when Rosalee tries to help & Monroe is there with the love potion.

She is too conflicting. It's too late to save what's happened. Based on her history,  she's too loose a canon to keep such a scary secret. She'll screw up somehow. She'll feel because of her intellect & her knowledge of what is real she'll endanger everyone because she'll know what's right to do. When Nick told her to stay put she managed to ignore him & put herself more into danger. She'll caused Nick to get put into more danger by ignoring everyone's advice. She'll blabber it away at the worse possible times fo strangers she thinks are better than the main characters of sorting it out.
