We're at the bit where she's lost her memory (due to a curse/spell cast by the witch) and I seriously want to throttle her. I think we're meant to feel sorry for her, to root for her, but I keep wishing she'd pack her bags and leave, despite already knowing that she doesn't.
I concur, though, that Wu, Monroe and Rosalee are terrific. Without Monroe, I never would have stuck with the show. Claire Coffee plays a pretty terrific bad girl in the first few seasons--the kind of enemy where you think "Sean, just kill her, for crying out loud!" LOL. The actor that plays Sean Renard is also top-notch. And it doesn't hurt that he's handsome, either, and for a taller woman like myself, TALL. You know, properly man-sized, rather than the Tom Cruise-sized Hollywood cadre. (I remember howls from female fans when they all learned that Russell Crowe is, shall we say, vertically-challenged?)

I loved Coffee - she took a throwaway role and played it with just the right amount of camp. Then her chemistry with Grimm helped salvage his role from the scrap heap.
