I kind of think they might have kept Cora though if the actress hadn't had another gig. I hate to say it, but the females on this show tend to be given the weaker (if not weaker, more emotional) roles in this show,. For example, Kali. She was badass up until she got emotional over Julia/Jennifer and then her character did a complete 180 and stopped being ruthless. I understand why it happend for the story, but it didn't settle well for me.

Jennifer: I liked her, I even hated to like her as the Darach after we found that out. She was a great add and made the "Teen" part of the show a little more real. I just wish she got to stick around for a little while longer.

Cora: Don't get me started here. The fact that we know more about Talia and Laura, than a character who was on for the entire season makes me furious. Hell, we know Jeff picks names for their significance and Cora is no different (See the myth of Psersephone). I want to say that this is part of Jeff's plan overall and that 3B is supposed to be Cora's time away from Beacon Hills, along with Derek (ETOnline Interview) and maybe she'll return after? I don't know. Either way, i'm happy for Adelaide Kane, not so happy for her character.

I'm sure I could go through all the rest of the female characters, but I wanted to touch only on the ones we were introduced to in season 3.
