User blog comment:Gordon003/Courtney - My Rant!/@comment-26910203-20160506000946

Courtney got progressively worse every season IMO, she was fine in Island and I actually found her relationship with Duncan intriguing there but now....I wouldn't say I hate her but I'm certainly not fond of where the writers took her character. A couple reasons why:

-Her character is probably one of the most inconsistent characters in TD, she's literally been all over the place since TDI ended. I mean seriously the "relationships" she has with certain characters seem to change at any time often without any given explanation, for example the relationship between Harold and Courtney from TDI to TDA makes no logical sense. For someone who is supposed to be smart I don't understand the fact that even after her elimination she couldn't figure out Alejandro contributed to her elimination and continued to support him into the finale....just why?

-The TDA shenanigans...her distraught for "losing" the chance at the million in the TDI finale and subsequent sueing (and admission into the season) came across as extremely bratty...as did most of her whining in TDA itself. Her entire attitude seemed unnecessary. Additionally, her stragegy was lacking, just because she had a better one than Justin does not mean it was good, Leshawna and Justin's elimination's were the only one where any thought seemed to be put in (the latter is debatable as "strategy") and the rest were mostly lucky (Lindsay voting for herself, her having immunity and picking Owen, etc.), I didn't even mention the sad attempt at an alliance with Beth.

-Her personality from TDA on disgusts me, she's annoying, b**chy, self absorbed, vain and to top it all of...not very entertaining, Heather though a jerk of a character is at least consistent and often hilarious, additionally Heather gets constant karma and humility throughout the seasons.

-The love triangle trainwreck of TDWT, I don't think I need to explain this one, before anyone says anything this hurt Gwen and Duncan just as much IMO. In fact, the whole Gwen/Courtney relationship is a mess and I've grown tired of its tediousness. With the pure animosity in Boyfriend Kisser I found it incredibly hard to believe they would still try to make it a thing before they ruined it again in Sundae Muddy Sundae
