She's definitely the most chaotic, but one must admit that she's a very immersive character, you can so easily get immersed in her character, her story and her interactions. That's what I love about her. Even if characters like Gwen, Duncan and even Heather get boring sometimes, Courtney is the one character who is not boring in any episode. She's definitely one of the best in terms of her deep and complicated personality, but never does this go anywhere because ever since TDA she's been relegated to that character nobody likes and thus is usually put through hell for all her worst attributes coming right back up whenever she shows a change of heart. And after three seasons, it's become intolerable. It's not progressing her forward in any meaningful way. And each time the outcome has been worse than the last. Her story is fascinating and I wish they'd offer us more into why she's so wound up, because her actions and relationships are interesting. Courtney unfortunately is very difficult to watch whenever she's in full blown berserk mode, but she is never boring. I just wish it wasn't always coming to a new dead end every time, her downfall in SMS being the worst case of it.
