She's a classic narcissist so it's hard to get behind her until she's had her wings clipped right down. It's a brilliantly written show in that it throws you through just about every emotion possible so that even the worst characters are somewhat sympathetic. I think that's the one outstanding similarity it shares with OZ besides the setting.
A perfect example of this is the Amish junkie girl. When you go through her back story her image as an irredeemable baddie is undermined so much so that I remember being quite blown away. Don't even get me started on how well played Pennsatucky's back story is, that's the humdinger of the bunch.
I have to admit I haven't seen any since
died.
That crushed me.
