(Anonymous) 2015-10-25 01:53 am (UTC)(link)It's sort of like the whole thing of turning her evil-if she'd stayed on, and the show had gone in a "love triangle" direction, I wouldn't have liked them turning Katrina evil just to make Ichabod's choice of who he should be with easier, simply because I don't really care for that trope when it comes to love triangles in general. It's an easy out to the dilemma. Ichabod and Abbie's chemistry speaks for itself, after all, and there could've been other creative, interesting ways to split Katrina and Ichabod up if they wanted to eventually make Ichabod/Abbie become canon.
All of that being said, however, I agree with you and others that I don't think she was killed off just to make the Ichabod/Abbie shippers happy. Nor do I think their whole thing of turning her evil was done to make it easier for Ichabod to leave her and go with Abbie or whatever. I think they were trying to do some genuinely interesting things with her character in and of itself at the end of her run...but unfortunately, by then, it was too little, too late. And I think all the other reasons everyone else listed here for why she was ultimately killed off are pretty accurate.
Personally, I didn't hate her, and do wish they'd figured out more to do with her character and found a good way and reason to keep her around, whether she stayed with Ichabod or not. And I'd heard about both Katia and Nicole getting horribly nasty tweets and such from different corners of fandom, and I'm sorry that both of them had to put up with that kind of bullshit from some immature, obnoxious fans. If that did have any impact on the show at all, then that sucks.
Bottom line, though, Katrina's gone, and the show's moved on, and they're trying to correct things, so...*Shrugs* Any fans who do have issues with those facts will just have to deal with it somehow and move on in their own way as well, I suppose.
