I gave her a 4 because she drove me crazy.
Annoying little brat. Gabrielle was way to nice to her.

Me too. It took a while for Tara to grow on me--such a brat in Forgiven! Loved her in Muses though. I gave her a 7.

I found her a whole lot annoying in Forgiven. Folks who try to move in on other people's perfectly healthy relationship just get to me. Get your own! So she get's an average of 3. A score of 1/10 from Forgiven and 5/10 from A Tale of Two Muses.

Gave her a 6, myself. Sue me, but I rather liked Tara in Forgiven. Yeah, I realize that "the tough juvenile delinquent who's really a good kid at heart" is a bit of a cliché, but call me a sap ... it kinda worked for me in this ep. Even if the final double twist (first it turns out that Tara was fooling Xena and Gabrielle all along ... then it turns out she wasn't after all!) was somewhat predictable. I...

Well I gave her a 5 because I don't hate her but I don't like her either.

MoyCullen said it better than I ever could.

I begrudgingly give her 4 because the first ep. was amusing, but I couldn't get past her beating up Gabrielle. For no good reason, that's unforgivable.

Gave her a 7. She wasn't very believable in Tale of two muses but I really liked her in Forgiven. Yes, she could get pretty annoying and I swear I wish I could have ripped her head off a few times during the episode but all in all I still liked her dealing with her anger and her bad ways and seeing the tension she brought to Xena and Gabs relationship. Yeah, she had her moments

I like the 2 episodes tara was in but I really don't like her, she's a little better in Tale of two muses but she's still an annoying little bint.

gave her a 3

feeds@yuku.com (BroadwayPhil) — Mon, 05 May 2008 01:17:29 GMT

I gave her a 3. Shiri Appleby was unimpressive. The character was generally not believable. In their first encounter, after achieving initial surprise, Gabrielle should have retained the upper hand she gained and wiped the floor with Tara. That she did not is another one of those little inconsistencies I place under the collective heading of "the deconstruction of Gabrielle."

Didn't think much of Appleby in Roswell either, but as a longtime resident of New...

10! One of my favourite characters! Probably because she reminds me a _lot_ of myself And I like her haircut.

I say 10 points, with 9 of them deducted for absolute abysmal bratty annoyingness, and infinitely more to follow once I pry my mouse out of the wall.

I don't like her. And she's not even the sort of character I like to dislike. In Forgiven Tara is portrayed as an orphaned, wayward kid who joined the dark side for their cookies and therefore reminds Xena of her own teenage street-gang past. It's a...

I'll give her an 8. I think she's actually pretty cool in both episodes. And she could only beat up Gabrielle, because Gabrielle let her do it, so it's not that bad.

Re: Rate-a-character: Tara

feeds@yuku.com (MJuingong) — Sat, 03 May 2008 15:12:06 GMT

8.
Nicely played (Appleby made a fan here); in FORGIVEN, she's truly obnoxious, truly effective as a penitent. I TOTM, impressive.

Re: Rate-a-character: Tara

feeds@yuku.com (CasualFan) — Sat, 03 May 2008 01:43:21 GMT

I gave her a 4 - Tara's character in Forgiven had "After-School Special" written all over her, and as some posters have already commented, her salvation was far too glib and predictable to be very convincing or moving. In TOTM, she was a plot device - I was never sure why she was in that ep, other than that TPTB liked Shiri Appleby (who I admit is an appealing young actress).

I give Tara an 8 for making me like her despite the fact that I thought she was totally annoying and whiny in Forgiven.
