Wersching’s death came as a shock not only because she was so young, but because she was the sort of actor you can easily take for granted. In reality, not every performer can slot into the machinery of a big show while still making an impact, but she was able to do it seamlessly. Unlike Jack, she is unable to live with the consequences of her actions and becomes a fragile shell of her former self. Torture had become such a go-to way to expedite the narrative that it was used relentlessly and gratuitously, and a backlash had formed. She had a brief but important role in the Halle Berry sci-fi series Extant, as a woman committed to ridding the world of advanced technology. Not quite a household name, Wersching was nevertheless a safe pair of hands who was able to drift into almost any show for an unspecified amount of time – sometimes just one episode, sometimes as a main character – and elevate it without even seeming to try.
