Well, perhaps those people who say jeller fans are childish, etc. should understand that the many of the audience & jeller fans watch a show like Blindspot for the action (yes, of course...) & to escape for an hour into make-believe. And so, it happens that many become emotionally invested in the lead characters; not so much for the intellectual merits of the show, but for the chance to see into a character or characters' lives (fictional as it may be) and to simply escape & just get caught up in the "feels" of a tv show. I read the feedback from jeller fans & they are ever & always cheering so much for Jane and Weller to be together without the shackles of an ex-girl friend & her baby (don't try to blush over the fact that that messy situation of baby mama & child won't come back in future episodes to bite someone's butt; it will!) that its almost like sports fans definitely cheering & willing their Jeller Team on to victory & the much anticipated jeller sex scene(s). Why is there this jeller frenzy? The writers themselves "created the frenzy" with how they wrote the Jane & Weller character interaction from the start of Season 1 through the present! And when the writers "mess" with the audience in such a way as to bring about the angst of another woman's child (is it really Kurt's???) then be prepared for the wave of disappointment, frustration and "anger" that seems, at this point, to affect the ratings!!! Going down, down. And as for those who are chastising the masses who want Allie gone, the baby gone, Nas put in her place out the door; keep in mind that these masses are running high on the emotional investment they have put into the characters of Jane and Weller. Indeed, a degree of angst & romantic tension is usually in a ship such as that of Jane and Weller (the writers started out with that premise, after all), but it truly depends on what exactly the angst entails that will bring out either the "awwww's" from the audience or the intense "hate" of the Allie/baby storyline that is being expressed & prevailing now by many jeller fans & more. It would be a shame if the series where canceled due to experimental story arcs by the writers; especially, negatively impacting the Jane & Weller ship. A real shame!! And as for those who comment that the jeller shippers and supporters of Jane & Weller are being childish and evil in wanting the character of Allie & baby to disappear & never return, watch your own backs! You folks may not have the pleasure of watching Blindspot anymore. It sure seems clear that the negative feedback from jeller ships could very well be the straw that breaks the chance of Season 3 for Blindspot. A note to those in the writers' room, do something to severe the ties of Allie & baby with Weller & the show forever (whether it be predictable, procedural or even a death end... you'll be forgiven for the deaths, I predict) and I suggest you do it quick or here's hoping you all have your resumes ready for another job with another series. Blindspot just may be "bye-bye". The comment above notes that Blindspot's ratings dropped 15%. Well, prior to submitting these comments, I looked up the most current ratings. Reviewers anticipate yet another drop in the show's ratings this week as well.

Jane is a hero and for all that s...Good review job! Jane is a hero and for all that she's been through, she has a big generous and gracious heart. Love her. I'm with you regarding this Allie character ~ she needs to go and in such a way that shows to Kurt how selfish and petty she is ~ How dare she says to Kurt "What took you so long?" If it hadn't been for Jane, that stupid Allie would've bled out ~ maybe she should have. Finding out that the baby is actually Connor's would be a great (albeit predictable...) way to dissolve this really lame storyline ~ nobody dies ~ and prove to Kurt how he was manipulated by tricky Allie. UGH. So much strong backlash and negative feelings from Jeller fans about the Allie/baby storyline could very well affect viewership of the series. Today, I read that the viewership is down 15%. Take heed you folks in the writers' room! There's a lot of Jeller "feels" invested in Blindspot ~ and that could quickly go away if you don't handle the departure of Allie and her baby soon.
