I don't hold it against the actress but as a character, Seaver didn't make any sense. You lose two seasoned agents and replace them with a rookie who's not even out of the academy? And the fact that her super power was basically "having a serial killer as a dad" was pretty hokey and a strain on the credibility.

Oh, yeah, I agree that a lot of that storyline was farfetched (and pretty much straight out of fanfic, really-I swear I've seen some variation of that plot before in many a fic). I think the whole thing of a team member having a serial killer for a father could've been an interesting angle, and I liked the way Seaver talked about what her life was like with that kind of a dad.

But yeah, it seemed like they didn't really do much with that part of her past beyond mentioning it in a couple episodes, and so it kinda went nowhere in the end.

Still liked the character herself, though-I really liked the relationship between her and Rossi, and her interactions with Reid were cute.

For me, there was no coming back from a premise that flimsy. I wish they'd written a better back story for her. Particularly when you consider the context of AJ and Paget getting fired, casting a younger actress who felt like a self insert fanfiction character... Well, no wonder it went over like a lead balloon.
