Yeah you know, much of it could be projection, as one of my exes had a girl-friend who was always being "a girl's girl," but never letting anyone forget about how much richer and more sophisticated she was -- in the same subtle ways as Zita. Where you feel like maybe you're just being jealous or catty, because it's super subtle and manipulative. Much as I think Karma needs to shit or get off the pot for right now, I had a lot of empathy for her in this situation.
Don't get me wrong, I dig the actress a lot and I like that Zita's charming and not one note. Looks- and personality-wise, she reminds me a ton of Lila from "Dexter," and I lovvved Lila. I just prefer characters like that on my TV screen, moreso than in my living room! Well technically, my TV screen is IN my living room, but you know what I mean :-D
