Really not liking Vanessa Ferlito...


It seems every role she is in, she plays exactly the same as the last - that she's a hard ass, I'm gonna kick your ass, I don't need anyone, I'm from New York so fear me person.

I've never liked her in anything she's done and I really hope she doesn't stay on the show.

I liked her character. Not very original, but it fits better than Brody did. Once Sonja came on the scene they had no idea how to balance the two female agents, and it just seemed like they alternated which one went in the field with LaSalle every week. Tammy looks like she'll bring a different element that the show needs.

Same character here.

I can not stand her, actress and character. She was the worst part of Graceland. I was extremely happy when they killed her off on CSI:NY. The only silver lining, maybe they will kill her off on NICS:NO by the end of the season.

I have never liked her in anything she is in either. She can't act. She is exactly the same in every show she is in. She always plays the New York thing to the hilt, but I find it hard to believe that the majority of New Yorkers are as crude as she appears to be. I cannot stand to listen to her talk and does she ever smile? I have known people who work for the FBI and they are not as hard headed as this show is making them out to be. Last night Ferlito was talking about her "calvary". I had to laugh when Bakula looks at her and very pointedly comments on her "cavalry", pronouncing it correctly. They really should have reshot that scene and had her pronounce it correctly. When the FBI recruiter came to my high school, he told us FBI agents had to have a college degree. I sure hope the show finds someone more likable to replace Zoe and Ferlito isn't going to be the new regular on the show. Hiring her is a bad decision.

What you say is true, and I caught the Calvary/cavalry thing, too. I saw The Rock say calvary in a movie not long ago. It's a lack of education and just general ignorance (Calvary is the location where Jesus was crucified). Poor Vanessa has a nose like a pig snout now. I don't understand what possesses somebody to do that to herself. She thinks that looks good? When she got mad at Pride She looked like she was going to start oinking. I guess Michael Jackson and his entire family were happy with those little parakeet beaks their noses were whittled down to.

I'm losing interest fast - first season I loved, second season I barely tolerated (with Percy, who I find extremely annoying), now with this new character... the FBI chick... Hated her in Graceland... Hating her even more in this one...

Please, PLEASE kill her off!

I love this show but if she stays on it I might have to quit it as she is a terrible actress. I am really struggling to watch her in this.

NancyLou9,
I agree. This is starting to feel personal. First NCIS adds to new actors that I don't like, now NCIS NO adds an actor I really don't like. It is almost as if the powers that be want me to stop watching two of my favorite shows.

I think you'll join a growing list if you do stop watching both. My family and I are already on it. Sometimes you just have to throw in the towel and accept that a show you loved isn't that show anymore. It's sad.

reply

I am not a fan. I didn't like her on Graceland either. I guess that I why there is a FF # on my remote. For me, she really fringe down the show.
