is she not one of the best actresses on TV?


I just finished watching Person of Interest episode 3 of season 2. Amy is just sooo good at being a villain. I mean that episode where she kidnapped Harold, that really surprised me. I guess her specialty is being innocent, then turning into a villain, and she is just so good at it.

She had a similar path in Dollhouse, and I believe even in Angel at one time she became an anti-hero.

Hey wait a minute. You've just perfectly described Jim Caviezel's mad acting "skills".

Doesn't change the facts about her. Read any poi message board, fan site, blog etc and you'll find people can't stand her character. The show flat doesn't need her and it became popular despite her. Jim Caviezel was/is the draw, not her or anyone else despite the fact you think he can't act.

The show needs her more than any other character and it became popular also thanks to her. Amy Acker was/is the draw, just like Jim or anyone else despite the fact you think she can't act.
