You have to stand back and study her arcs throughout season 4, 5 & 6 just to see how morally reprehensible it really is.WOW even after 3 years some of you Nick haters still haven't gotten over the fact that these fictional characters ended up the way they did. Did you ever contemplate if things were written as some of your postings on the fiction portion of this forum, we might have ended up with less seasons/episodes?
S4: Juliette turns into Hexenbiest. Juliette becomes extremely powerful. Power turns Juliette into an uberbitch. Juliette commits unforgivable crimes and has to be put down like a sick animal.
S5: Juliette is beaten up inside a cell by a creep who hides his blatant sadism behind a mask of practicality. Said beating results in Juliette becoming "Eve," a "stronger woman" who's in "full control" of her emotions, i.e. they won't run rampant to destroy everyone around her. Basically, it took a man to slap a leash on Juliette for her to become a good guy again. Juliette is absolved of all her crimes by adapting identity of Eve. Everybody is (ultimately) okay with this, including the writers working under G&K's reign of amoral incompetence.
S6: "Julieve" is mostly reduced to sniffing around a tunnel for most of the season until she goes on a detour with Nick, in which she blabs a monologue SUPPOSEDLY meant to resolve any lingering conflict, only to rip open old wounds by refusing to face accountability for her crimes for the umpteenth time.
As far as I'm concerned, the REAL continuity came to a halt at the end of TRIAL BY FIRE. The actual story unfolded elsewhere. We'll just never get to see it. Everything we saw on the television took place in an evil alternate timeline conceived by lazy, indifferent hacks who didn't care about the misery and trauma they were inflicting on characters whom the audience had the misfortune of liking.
In the end, in the real world, Nick and Juliette did hook up, got married, as David and Elizabeth, and became parents to a beautiful little girl, yet, you still unsatisfied. This looks as if there is more to this criticism then you seem to admit. I think your have an underlying motive for your disdain of the outcome of the series. Based on some of your fictional writings, your disdain has to be from you repulsing your heroin Juliette ending up alone instead of shaking up with your other hero, Sean Renard. I am sure the "peanut gallery", from the previous posting to N_grimm's posting, feels the same way.
I detect a slight prejudice in your criticism, due to, your heroin did not end up with the taller, wasp-y looking guy, instead of alone. Yet in the real world, Bitsey ended up with the shorter Latin looking ITALIAN GUY. Do i detect some well founded biased jealousy in your summations?
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
