This Simone character feels like a rip off of the armored truck lady in lethal weapon 3. She was masterful and stole the show, but in a good way
...however this Simone character doesn't have that gravitas. She is just an annoying character.
Additionally, her character and how they used her in the show really deviated from how the show normally goes. Which tells me they want us to like her...like there is going to be a FBI rookie show staring her. If that's true, that's great for people who like her character because they get a while show for her. And it's good for The rookie fans, because she leaves the main show. But if they are trying to work her into the main show....that's terrible for all. Nolan already fits the shows empathy role in the cast dynamic. It doesn't need another. Especially this annoying character
Why am I more Insensed than I should be? Because I love this show. And this character derailed the show so much, I forgot we tracking down a terrorist because if a school counselor that is a some super cop in training and all her backstory derailment. 95% of her screen time could have been edited out and it would have flowed so much better
Hopefully this is the one off, but I still remember that terrible cop chest camera episode earlier in the season where it was nothing but interviews (felt like production phoned it in)
