You're not expressing your opinion. When one express an opinion, a person must be articulate, one must explain why that person think the way he thinks with the most respect possible. Instead, you opened this post where you not only insulted the actress, you tried (and failed) to be funny. And you wonder why they did cast her? Let's see. She won a Saturn Award and was nominated in 2010 for an Emmy. She starred big movies like Gia, The Santa Clause movies and she got a creepy little role on Running Scared. Not to mention that she was in LOST, where the actors had to ACT and she played her role succesfully. She is acclaimed by critics and the public. And while she's a little underrated, she's really good. You claim that her acting is ''wooden'', but can't you understand that's the way they asked her to portray the character? I think that by ''wooden'' you mean being serious which is not the same. Juliet's feeling are reserved with people until you could crack her open. Ever checked Juliet's flashbacks in Lost, where she had her sorrow exposed at full bloom? You might not like the actress, but that doesn't mean she's bad.
Also, I'm sorry that I called you ''stupid''. But, you got to understand how good this woman is. And think about it, her co-stars like Michael Emerson, Josh Holloway and now Giancarlo Esposito, Billy Burke and David Lyons have nothing but good things to say for her. Hell, even the writers are pleased to work with her!
Still not convinced? Check this scene with the equally great Michael Emerson.

I could think of more, but I'm not gonna feed you up with videos. As a hardcore Lost fan, I must say Elizabeth is my favourite actress and I say you might not like her, but at least have some respect.
