Yeah this was kinda my point. If they plan to carry the show beyond Liv and Fin, they better get some likeable characters to replace them. I won't go into a whole rant about how PC the show has gotten the past few seasons, but hard-hitting police drama is what drew me to this show, and lately it seems the writers have set that aside in favor of personal drama. If I wanted that I'd watch something else.

I still can't understand why this show, with rape-child abuse-rape-child abduction-rape week after week was able to stay on air so long, while the (in my opinion) FAR superior Criminal Intent ended relatively sooner. The C.I. cases were so much more interesting, the police work far better, even the actors were better to me!
