I mostly try to write her as a nicer person than she was on the show, but whenever I need someone to be stupid or ask a silly question, there's Gwennie! She's so tempting to bash.

It's just, a police constable would understand following orders and the chain of command. Gwen doesn't. She's much more like a reporter digging in to find out the truth, it would make more sense of some of her character flaws. I just don't think she's ever believable as a cop.

Not giving her the lion's share of the action would definitely have helped too. It should have been about all the team equally, with some extra emphasis on Jack.
