Bring Detmer in and give her some years overdue character development.
I’m still frustrated that none of the Canadian cast got good development.
Almost all of them have significant awards within Canada. Most have other shows, films or are producing themselves.
While many of them took these roles for steady work, it was clear that they weren’t intended by the executives be more than regular wallpaper. It’s unfortunate.
I feel the same about Mitchell in SNW.
Totally agree about Mitchell. Rong Fu is really good in the role and deserves some love from the writers. Mitchell is a recurring character rather than a regular, so it may not be an apples to apples comparison but still, she's been there from the begining.
Me watching S5: "Ok, this episode is going to have Detmer and Owo, right?" End of episode: "Dammit!"
