That is a very good question though it'll probably be answered more when I make the blog on why I love Josee AND Jacques so much.

For now I'll just give a brief answer about Josee.


 * The way Josee's feelings about something are empathised really makes a lot of her moments stick out. When she's smiling for the camera it's great because of how strongly she forces it. When she gets mad it's fun too because you never know how far it can go. Her feelings about things, in my opinion, are much more strongly done with her than really any other character. The memorability she has is down to how much work seems to have been put into her.


 * I felt excited ever since the first episode with her. She had this really fake smile and didn't have any worries about anything, yet would insult Jacques every so often. Right from the get-go I knew she was a firecracker ready to explode. I had never really felt this way with any character before; where I didn't know what to expect and was excitedly wondering what kind of things this person would face.


 * Josee's descent into angry competitiveness is done gradually and not rushed in the slightest. The show could not have done a better job when it came to the pacing of Josee's competitiveness. In the first episode, she's really upbeat and sure of herself but has anger held back. In the second episode, her and Jacques come in third, which upsets her which really reveals a lot because it sends the message that anything below first will anger her. When I go into more detail I'll explain more about this development Josee has, but for now I ask you to watch RR with a focus on Josee. Every emotion she has leads to another one if you watch carefully, and the attention to detail with her is extraordinary for me.


 * She's really really funny. This is an easy enough point to make but Josee is hilarious for me. It's not just because she's angry and that's funny. But the cleverness and quotable lines from her, along with her spontaneous personality makes her extra funny. Her emotions make a joke funny. The passion put into Josee jokes makes them stick out to me a lot. If you re watched RR you may even notice some that you missed.

There are a ton of other points but for me to say why I love my favourite character so much on my message wall does a lot of disservice to her, so I'll save the rest for some other time.
