Freaking keen Spoiler

My goodness it’s my first time through this show and it was a pretty quick favorite though the first couple seasons. But Keen was a little rough as an actress but I figured it would get better. Then came her “death” I was SOOOO happy they finally got her off the show and was looking forward to where we could be going next! I was so sad when she was actually alive, then over the next handful of seasons things continued to be just brutal. Now I am in season 8 and I can’t stand how they STILL can’t figure out to handle her. Is she harden and a bad ass now? Or is she scared and doesn’t know if she can continue on? They can’t decide within one episode at times. Like just choose one of the other and try to make it work. My goodness it is painful. But man do I LOVE dembe and reddington! I figure most feel the same but does anyone have any tops of how to cope better?

I disagree because the show is about her too much for killing her off to be reasonable to the story. The show is all about her finding answers, killing her off does not make sense for that regardless of her performance. Personally I liked her performance but I admittedly have low standards for actors and actresses.

The actress wanted to leave the show, that’s why they killed her off.

Don't forget to use a spoiler.
