Huh. I read/saw that they didn't care about not being in the episodes, but wanted to be paid for them.
Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Speculation is that it's Maggie Grace, as she supposedly had a "turn down the role or get canned" order about signing on as Kitty Pryde in X3. Which Variety reports she just did.
I hope it's not just wishful thinking—she's easily the weakest performer left in the regular cast, IMHO.

Oh. That would be good.

I feel like she's created a character who has shown some growth while remaining essentially still Snickerbitch. I'd much rather lose Kate or even Claire than Shannon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd happily lose Shannon, but I don't want her in X3. She just reads flat, flat, flat for me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Lyra Jane is me. I'd be sad about Kate or Claire, but still. Of course this may have something to do with the fact that I'd have been just as useless in the beginning, maybe not as bitchy, but still useless.

It's the bitchy that bothers me, honestly. Useless? Whatever. Selfish? Oddly, she's unredeemed.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I'd probably be as bitchy for the first hour or so, realize I was useless and start being nicer. But I can totally see me in a plane crash all "WTF is this shit. Assholes!" and lashing out angry at the universe in a totally ineffective way.
But you know, whatever. I like cilantro, olives and salt, so I'm clearly not to be trusted.

I'll admit I'd have probably had a very similar response to the crash itself, but I like to think the realization that it was necessary to pull my shit together and start helping would take hold a few days sooner.
I thought she did well enough in the first few episodes, but since well before "Hearts and Minds" she's been reminding me of a cardboard cutout.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
what it comes down to for me...I can't see why the fuck Sayid would want to be with her. So because of that, she needs to go.
