Bad actress acting as one of the worst characters in TV so far...


I love serious, nuanced dramas and rounded and well done comedies overall, and although I also love some guilty pleasures like 2 Broke Girls, I'm gonna put the cards on the table and say that I FÜCKING HATE SOPHIE IN THAT SHOW.

Jeez, she's literally the worst comedy character any show has (or I've ever seen on comedy TV, for that matter). I can't stand how she's hogging screentime from more interesting characters (OK, not interesting, but maybe actually watchable), her annoying "Polish" voice that is just a high-pitch whine with no actual attempt at a clean foreign language, zero character development and marrying Oleg doesn't count, since she's still being the annoying high-pitched bitch from Season Two with no depth. She has no nuance in her screentime and in a series filled with stereotypes and stock comedy characters, she, of somehow, manages to be the shïttiest one of them all.

I honestly don't know what goes through some commenters' minds in these boards that defende the actress (understandable) and her character at the same time. I mean, they could be her fans, but damn! there's this level of love around her character in some boards that can be only compared to fanboy annoying worpship that I find dumbfounded and idiotic.

I don't want to say bad but def limited, she like acts the same in everything from American Pie to Pootie Tang To Click To 2 Broke girls to White Lotus. People will say shes a character actress as if that means limited talent. Character Actors like Ted Levine, Edward G Robinson and Fred Ward Etc had range. Her's is very limited Diana Dors for example in her final years of acting kinda became a character actress and she showed much more Range then Coolidge, even when she was a Sex Symbol in her Prime she still showed Range
