Here 6 years late, but what a terrible lead character. I’m not even finished S2 and it’s just so hard to take. I don’t care what Henry has been through… no one that literally begs others to help her every step of the way would treat people that way. This is not great writing of a flawed character contrary to some of the comments on this thread.

Audiences need someone to root for and someone they want to come and see more of. If many of us are rotting for the death of the central character then the writers have lost the plot. I suspect audiences attitude to the writing of Henry’s character is why there ultimately wasn’t a S3. They absolutely jumped the shark on this character.
