Do you think Jody and Donna are a good team?

When I think of cop shows years ago, female leads I think of Gagney and Lacey Those two actresses had bags of chemistry and knew how to draw you in. Which is what I love about J2. They have that knack of drawing the viewer in which to me is a trait of a good actor. Chemistry is a huge turn on for me, and if a team don't have it, I think thumbs down.

Donna took ages to grow on me but on re-watch I find her a good actress to watch. This is why I believe Jody and Donna make a good double act. This is partly why I was sad to see the spin-off didn't happen. Because I did feel they both highly scored. They are both strong enough to lead their own show, and feel angry still they were not picked up.

How do you feel about this pair, did they hit the mark, or were they a big thumbs down?

Loved them and thought they worked well together. I don't think I've seen chemistry as good as J2's in a long ass time, so I can't compare these women to Jensen and Jared, but still, I would've loved Wayward Sisters to have happened. And not just for Jody and Donna. Contrary to many SPN fans' taste, I liked all the characters that were set to be featured on the show.

Would have loved to see that take off to see those two develope more, but I think they screwed up that episode too bad to make it happen. It felt too forced all the way around. I do love watching Jody and Donna interact with each other.

I think Jody and Donna do make a good team. I also think that Wayward Sisters had a lot of angles they could've played with. The only problem is, the backdoor pilot focused mostly on Claire. I know she was coming back "home" or whatever, but it just felt like Donna and Jody were sidelined.

I much rather see Wayward Sisters than a Charmed wannabe "reboot" Ugh. CW made a mistake there. I don't know if it was Patience and Kai's horrible acting/casting; too much Claire; not enough Jody, Donna, and Alex; or the idea of the bad place. What does CW Network want?

Donna and Jody are fine in small doses. I thought Brianna did a great job in the episode where we got a chance to learn more about her. Jody is starting to wear on me. I think Wayward made a big mistake with the pilot not focusing more strongly on them both. Too much Claire. The other characters felt so forced in.

The one thing I am seriously not looking forward to is the idea of Mary and AUBobby becoming a thing. Girl that Ketch might be a homicidal maniac but he’s one fine lookin piece of a-hum, sorry. ;). I liked them together. Deadly killer/Hunter of all things supernatural. Yes. Metch? Ketchy? Beats Mobb. Or Barry. :)
