I get you. It all comes down to what each person supports in a housemate.
From a personal point of view, I like seeing well rounded characters. Housemates where we've seen all sides of their personalities. For me, this year, that's Caroline, Elsa and Tate. We've seen their funny side, annoyed side, thoughtful side. They come across as people as well as players in a game. Though, by prompting, you have changed my mind on one thing - I would like Elsa to go further as, whilst I was considering my response, I realised she has a lot of qualities I support. She needs to just get away from Marcus, as I feel the romance drags them both down. And the more outlandish ideas don't always land.
Back to the original point, and my issue with Jenny is she comes across as 2D now. I accept that has a lot to do with the edit, but even on the feed (the bits we're allowed to hear) she still comes across as judgemental and divisive. Even the high ten last night felt off. I'd like to see more from her; the person behind the opinions. That's what's lacking for me.
