Since I have miserably failed to defend my own thoughts on Bo in TWOP, I won't even try this again here.
I think it's a lose-lose situation talking about Bo, because she's written so inconsistently that it's impossible to really pin her down.
I found a lot of what you said about Bo trying to do what's 'right' or 'good' accurate in that it is what the writers are putting forward on screen, but I maintain that with the background they gave her, her actions and black/white viewpoint make no sense whatsoever.
But moving on ...
Bo's character is boring as hell, the Fae-of-the-week case is useless and poorly written, the narrative lacks rythm, why is every other character more interesting than Bo (why is every other actor more talented than Silk), give Kenzi and Dyson something to do, WE WANT LAUREN BACK AS A REGULAR, and so on...
A thousand times YES! to all of this. To be honest, I don't need more Dyson (I'm anticipating not really digging this weeks episode because the preview was ALL ABOUT DYSON), but give me more Kenzi (who I've been ADORING for the past few episodes), give me more Trick, and definitely give me more Lauren.
'm kinda cynical because I honestly don't think the writers will change anything
This. I've kind of resigned myself to the fact that what we've gotten so far, is pretty much all these writers can do. This show is always going to be a guilty pleasure. It's never going to be legitimately good, but I'll keep watching it because it's not supernatural creatures, hot chicks who make out with chicks, some great one-liners, and Zoie Palmer.
