Supernatural lets Katie Cassidy go

well, that bites! i thought ruby was an interesting character and was great
source of info for the brothers in the storylines. and katie is definitely smokin'

getting rid of bela made sense - they never really fleshed the character out
well, she felt pretty one-dimensional. i think they're making a mistake by
letting go of cassidy, though. i think there was a fair bit more to ruby that
could have been explored, they should have kept her around.

i always got the impression that she hadn't been terribly honest with the boys
about her past - especially after the fallen angel comment. i was hoping we'd
see that pan out into something bigger.

while it's true you can change actors for the demon roles pretty easily, it's
also a cop-out. it isn't a daily soap opera, and people like to be able to
associate a name/face with a character. so far, this show has a pretty bad
time keeping regular female actresses.

yeah that sucks, man. i guess i'm one of the few who liked ruby... and bela.

i hated that tptb were writing two female characters into a show that is
supposed to be about family, and they weren't actually any part of their family,
extended or immediate.

that said, ruby grew on me. she had the potential to be a great character, and
i was really interested in how she managed to keep from going insane/completely
evil like the other demons do/did...i felt like that could have been explored
more to give us an idea of what dean had in store for him.
