From the beginning I have felt that she has had a chip on her shoulder. She is almost cold.
I have felt that way too.
Personally I wouldn't really miss her. As I said above, we really never got the chance to get to know her but the writers didn't exactly go out of their way to let us get to know her either.
If Megan E is leaving the show, I think it could be for 2 reasons:
1) the salary freeze that CBS was threatening to impliment, don't know if they actually went through with it but just the notion, maybe has forced TPTB to drop a character in order to save money for the rest of the cast and the overall budget. It is possible TPTB are being pre-emptive b/c even if the freeze doesn't go through, money allottment for the show may be decreased anyway.
and/or
2) the TPTB just began to realize, as the season went on that she (Megan) was just not a fit for the show...chemistry wise. She probably signed a 1 year contract, so they just let it play out and this upcoming story might be their way of writing her off the show.
I personally think though, it is more the latter than the former b/c I really don't feel like she fits in with this show...not necessarily the cast, the show in general.
I have to completely agree with all of this. I've always thought that if this storyline is designed for her exit that it was because tptb realized she wasn't working as well as they thought she would. Though I've wondered a time or two about the freeze, but I really would think it would be the latter. Now I'm left wondering if they will replace her or just as MJ said, have a faceless ME. Or they could pull a "Bones" and just do rotating MEs until they find one that clicks.
I actually have enjoyed the interactions between Tara and the others. She didn't appreciate the guys' prank with the DB and let them know in spades. Would Alexx have tollerated it? Nope. She'd have given them a tongue lashing that they'd still be smarting over.
I don't know if I agree with this. While I can see Alexx fussing at them (about messing with her DBs) in a motherly tone, I can still see (as the guys walk out of the morgue), Alexx grinning a little bit because while it was ill-advised, it was still kind of funny.
Hey, I just had a thought, maybe Yelina could be the new ME. :lol: They could say that she went to medical school before the academy. :lol: It would be a stretch, but I could honestly see her as the ME. I mean, its already a character that most people seem to like, so why not. :lol:
