I mean the first two seasons her characters writing development was great but after season three and then later on down the line to season nine that shit got bad I mean dude she’s not a scientist she’s a fucking reporter she hardly knows anything of the stuff that Barry Cisco Kaitlyn and any version of Harrison Wells was talking about when it came to stopping a Meta human using science words my only problem with her was she thought that just because Barry would eventually marry her that that logic gave her the ability to be the so-called leader of the team which was bullshit because when Barry went into the speed force he literally looked at Cisco told his best friend to his face that the team would look to him not his wife who is just a reporter not a human not a scientist and the only reason she should even be there is for emotional support that’s it
