IMO, the writing for her character was always pretty crap. IIRC the earlier seasons strongly telegraphed that she was autistic, though I don't think they ever came out and said it? So they'd have her acting like a robot, unable to process or understand other peoples' very human emotions, such as grief over the death of a loved one. She was brusque and flat even towards people she knew well and trusted.

And then they'd turn around and give her an amazing dating life where she was the life of the party with a string of hot guys who thought she was a Cool Girlfriend and... no. You don't act like an alien who's confused by human beings and emotions during your work hours and then become Miss Social Butterfly/Congeniality on the weekends.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who felt this way. It’s one of the big reasons I tapped out early on the show.

Yeah, and I wish I'd done the same. I knew then that the writing would be sloppy and that nobody cared about characterization or continuity and later episodes totally confirmed this.

I think she was only "alien and confused" when it came to death, because she'd had such a close relationship with it her ENTIRE life. It's like someone saying something dear to you that has been beside you since childhood is bad, you tend to not Get It.

That would be a far more sensitive and logical explanation than the show ever offered, IMO. It still doesn't make sense when they consistently portray her as being that way in normal,everyday interactions with other people such as her co-workers, but somehow transforming into this high-powered social queen in her sexual/romantic relationships.

...I just... Isn't it a bit discriminatory to say that she can only be one way? I think that's what makes me uncomfortable.
