Day 2: 30 Days of Supernatural

[ratherastory]

Day 02 - Your least favourite character

I've always liked what SPN does with its secondary characters (except possibly their tendency to kill them off in swathes). That being said, if I had to pick one, it would be the second incarnation of Ruby. I loved Ruby when she was played by Katie Cassidy, and as much as I wish Genevieve Cortese well in her life and endeavours and whatever, she just couldn't pull it off with the same skill.

Ruby #2 came off as whiny and vaguely spineless, and just lacked charisma. To the point where it was often difficult to believe that she could even hope to manipulate Sam. It was more a testament to how messed up Sam was than to her skills as liar and seductress.



There are a few female characters who got short-shrift, either because they were poorly-written or poorly-acted, and it was a bit of a toss-up as to who was going to end up in this space: Ruby, Bela or Cassie. I ended up going with Ruby because she stuck around, annoying me for an entire season. ;)
