Oh, I think a lot of them are damaged. But I can feel pretty sympathetic toward most of them. But the damage on Janet's part is just.. crazy. Out of all of the characters, her actions are the ones that fall so far into the "sleezy" camp (abducting kids/run away again/pull kids away/abandon-neglect baby/hookup/blame husband for child's death/accussations/blackmail/threaten abduction again) that I just have no sympathy at all for her character.
Yes, Teddy and even Tommy are douche bags on some level, but at least Tommy gets a storyline that redeems him some as well with his actions w/r/t firefighting.
Janet's character has not had a single storyline that gives her character any redemption outside of thinking she's a total scumbag. While Sheila's character is crazy, she at least has the redemption storyline of her going whackball crazy from her husband's death and trying to provide.. so you can at least forgive her. Without some sort of redeeming storyline, they've pretty much made Janet into that complete fishwife that you can't imagine anyone relating too. And, no offense to the actress, but she isn't nearly hot enough to put up with all the grief she dishes out as a character ;)
