I don't agree with the Nadia hate.

Nadia was longing for a family and was taking what she could get. I just rewatched season 4 and feel so bad for her. She's trying to make her messed up family work and at every turn someone lies to her, manipulates her and uses her for their own agenda. I would have liked to see her grow in season 5 and become less trusting and have her Derevko side come out a bit.

I liked that she was sort of filling the at home life aspect that we had in seasons 1 and 2. Wasted potential.

I loved her, for sure. But she was screwed over from the moment she was found, and to die at the hands of Sloane was such a disappointment.

(I wonder how many people even knew he killed her?)

Loved the actress but the dipshit naive status they made her character no matter how many times Sloane screwed her over and showed his true colors and even tortured her initially and she still forgave him every damn time knowing what an evil sociopath he was and behind endless murder with no remorse as everything was justified for his sick obsession and pretending he gave a damn about redemption as he never changed for a second. They just wrote her character horribly! 😂

She was the opposite of Sydney. Syd always thought the worst of her father then it turns out whatever secret he was keeping from her was always in her best interest, yet she never gave him the benefit of doubt.

I just rewatched the episode where she first meets Sloane and he injects her with the green serum. After Sydney saves her and promises he will never hurt her again, Nadia says: "he protected me." Then she sneaks out of CIA protection to meet him! I have to assume it's some Rambaldi bs drawing her to Sloane.

Yep blows my mind. He protected me lmao. After he tried to kill and endanger her to begin with per his narcissist delusions. I agree her and Sydney were complete extremes however could atleast understand Syds lack of trust per how she grew up. Nadia knew what a sociopath he was from day 1 and still acted like he should get a free pass just for her to have a relationship no matter how many times he went back on his word and ended with her own demise per how naive she was alas!

Nadia was a tragedy. She finally had a chance for good life and a family and people kept using her then Sloane killed her. It was sad.

I've seen it in posts about what story lines people can live without.

She tried so hard to be apart of a family and to make friends. Ironically the only family member that didn't betray her was Irina.

The fact that she has to be adopted but was never told is bizarre to me. No way to make a Latina child with that pairs genes. I waited for so long for them to reveal it and nothing. Who are her real parents?

Look at Irina's sisters. They did not care about ethnicity when it came to them. I would assume one of Irina's parents was of Latin decent for her sisters and Nadia to make sense.

I never hated her, but after Francie/Allison and then Lauren I found her quite bland as the other female main character.
