'Manifest': Grace's fate has made her the most hated character on the show

Grace is the collateral damage occurred by the plane's fateful incident, and it will take a while for her to get things straight
PUBLISHED DEC 22, 2018

Athena Karkanis' character in NBC's Jeff Rake-created show, 'Manifest', has been an object of repugnance for ardent followers of the show. Starring alongside Josh Dallas (as Ben Stone), Melissa Roxburgh (as Michaela Stone), Parveen Kaur (as Saanvi Bahl), and J.R. Ramirez (as Jared), Karkanis' character has been portrayed as probably the most helpless yet the most disdainful in the show, which follows the aftermath of the sudden re-appearance of Montego Air Flight 828 after almost five and a half years. 

Grace is judged when she, instead of thanking Ben for all the risks he had taken to protect the family, throws him out of the house and refuses to let Cal (played by Jack Messina) go with him. Fans on social media have been infuriated by her actions, as one fan on Reddit claimed: "She's a horrible person but her character is written that way. She's going to toss Ben aside and move Danny back in. She was just looking for any opportunity and it came up. I can't wait until she figures out that Danny is one of the bad guys in on the conspiracy of the flight."
