Re: TDWT, I like Sierra much more than I thought I might (her voice notwithstanding), although I doubt that she will ever be among my favorites.

Alejandro seems to me a more effective villain than his predecessors. He doesn't seem as self-absorbed as Justin was in Season 2, nor as self-important as the Season 2 Courtney; and, unlike the Season 1 Heather, he can be genuinely nice when he so chooses. When Heather tried to be nice, it tended to come across as an obvious ploy. The Season 3 Heather seems a worthy adversary for Alejandro, but still has trouble being genuinely nice, even when it's in her own interest to be.
