Will anyone else miss Juliet on Lost?

You know; I really am excited to see Liz Mitchell in the new V series and think that she really made a name for herself with some gutsy performances in Lost, but despite the new series excitement, I don’t really like the fact that Juliet was killed off on the show. Sure, I understand that she may appear from time to time, but aside from Locke, she may have been the most mysterious character on the show. Did anyone really know what was going on inside her head? The little smirk could mean she wanted to make out with Jake or cut off someone’s head.

I guess I just think that her style of acting was well-suited for Lost because she could play both sides of the coin so well without even tipping her hat. And yes, this will be crucial for success in a show like V, if it has any plot resemblance to the prior show, but let’s face it; we’ll all miss her on Wednesday nights.

Speaking of which… There’s nothing on tonight and don’t give me that Idol crap!

Yep. Juliet was an enigma. Going back to when she was an Other she did not seem to be faking it. When she threatened to shoot the captive Sawyer I really believed she could and would do so. Her change of heart was motivated she said, by wanting to get off the island--not any particular goodness. That said, she became a sympathetic character based on her empathy and willingness to help the LOSTies. I think Liz Mitchell does portray the strong, yet vulnerable characters very convincingly so it should be fun to see what she does as the lead on V.
