  • Her character had some rare character development this season as she learned to manipulate House to do as she wanted rather than just rolling over and allowing him to do as he wanted. She had some memorable performances when her character perjured herself in order to save House's career and as she struggled with her ticking biological clock. --The-jam 21:40, 16 January 2008 (EST)

  • I initially thought that I wasn't going to like her only because her voice annoyed me, but as the show went on and Olive was developed, I started liking her more. A main reason is that she turned what could've been a clichéd character into someone who got along with the rival for her affection and became her friend. -- HuskersRule 19:26, 7 February 2008 (EST)

  • In her final turn as Carmela Soprano Falco turned in some of her best performances. She delivered an extremely nuanced performance as her character struggled with her son's mental health problems and dealt with several close deaths.--The-jam 21:40, 16 January 2008 (EST)
  • She didn't have any big "crying over the dying Tony" scenes this season, so it's a bit easier to overlook just how good she was, but she turned in the same quality of performance as she has since the series began. Given how high that level of quality was, she was simply one of the best actresses on television and deserves to be recognized as such. -- JCaesartalk 22:49, 15 January 2008 (EST)

  • Her part in the second episode of the season was one of the few redeeming parts of the mini intro season. She then went on to have memorable performances in reacting to revelations about her character's kidnapping, pregnancy and friends. --The-jam 21:40, 16 January 2008 (EST)

  • Juliet was one of the greatest new characters ever to be introduced into the series and most of the character's success goes to Elizabeth's acting. One of the greatest Golden Globe snubs was Elizabeth not getting nominated. Neil sa 04:55, 2 February 2008 (EST)
  • Agreeing here. Mitchell pulled off the right mix of mystery, sympathy and danger to make her character one of the more memorable highlights of this past season. JCaesartalk 07:45, 20 January 2008 (EST)
  • It was often confusing as to whose side Juliet was really on but Mitchell's acting helped eliminate a lot of that confusion or at least make it clear that Juliet herself wasn't quite sure whose side she was on. I think she has been overlooked for a lot of awards because her acting is much more subtle than many other strong woman on TV. The character isn't as in your face as the ones that always seem to get the nominations but I'd say the subtle nuanced performance is much harder to pull of well. --The-jam 17:54, 30 January 2008 (EST)

  • It seems every other award organization is nominating her this year so we might as well hop on the bandwagon, too. Of course this is a nomination for sixteen year-old Page not twenty year-old Page but she was already a great actress four years ago when she filmed ReGenesis. Lilith seemed way past her age even though she was actually being played by an actress her age. Many of the things Page has received praise for in Juno she was already doing four years earlier playing a remarkably similar character on Regenesis. She showed a huge acting range across the season and overshadowed much of the rest of the cast. I was sad she didn't return in later seasons but she was destined for bigger things. --The-jam 17:54, 30 January 2008 (EST)

  • She had a much reduced role in a sub-par season and when she did appear she tended to be over the top and manic. A big change from the previous season where she had some great subtle bits and a lot of deep character development. --The-jam 21:40, 16 January 2008 (EST)
  • Opposing because I watched the season and I can't remember what she did. -- JCaesartalk 22:49, 15 January 2008 (EST)

  • I know Nikki and Paulo were probably the two most hated characters on Lost ever, and a lot of people didn't like the way they were introduced into the show. I do, however, feel that Kiele did a really great job at portraying Nikki. In their flashback episode, a whole other side of Nikki was revealed and Kiele played her deceptive, bitchy side very well, and also managed to pull off some softer, emotional scenes. Despite the characters being hated and very short-lived, Kiele did an excellent acting job and I can't help but think that viewers would have gradually fallen in love with her if she had stayed on the show for longer.

  • In her role as one of Chuck's protectors, she has to balance out the need for protecting a important asset to the government and her feelings for him, along with previously being in a relationship with his former best friend, and is really good at it. -- HuskersRule 19:26, 7 February 2008 (EST)
