Exactly, All of these characters were doomed from the start because of the inept, unimaginative writers. For anyone who remembered Shawn and Belle's battle with Philip over little Claire, this version of Belle was unrecognizable. What woman would get involved again with the lowlife who caused her little daughter to be lost in a typhoon??? As for Shawn and Lani, they were the result of making the Salem P.D. the sole source of employment for new arrivals. Lani as an instant detective was an insult to all members of the police force who would have wanted a promotion, and once she got the job she did precious little detecting. Similarly, Shawn arrived and somehow had acquired the qualifications to be an instant hire for the CSI unit. (If Roman hired these two, why not Rory. At least he'd have been funnier.) Finally, as many have said the biggest rotten apple is Summer, whose character was made all the worse by the fact that her existence significantly tampered with the backstory of a major character. Hopefully, when the psycho mermaid takes her leave, it will be revealed that the DNA test had been tampered with -- perhaps by sleazy conman Dario.They need to start firing writers and unify their vision. Just my opinion. They can rotate actors all they want, but without compelling story, they're in the same quagmire.
