She'l be on for at least the next 3 or 4, I think. She's a Guest Star. Not a series regular.

I think she's still undercover, that she's actually working for the anarchists, infiltrating the unit & special forces in general, to take them down, use the families as bait to force the men to do what the anarchists want.

I think she's a great addition to the show besides the fact that she's hawt. She plays the role well and having a female in the unit opens new advantages to the team. I hope they keep her around

Whether Nicole is beautiful or not is not the issue. The issue is do we all like the change in dynamics of the show with her on board. The answer for me is no I do not like the change. TPTB are messing with the show in an effort to appeal more to the 18-49 age group. 38% more people in that age group watched Brothers and Sisters on Sunday Oct 5 rather than The Unit .

I don't think that the producers expected huge changes in the form of those B&S viewers switching shows, at least entirely and not yet. I think that the addition of Bridget, plus more of an emphasis on making the wives stronger and more independent, was partly to appeal to new viewers, as well as reflecting certain changing dynamics in this country and the world. People, not all but a good amount, respond positively to female characters who are smart, capable, and well-rounded. While I love TU, I do have to admit that those have not always been qualities that could be attributed to the women on the show. I think the writers and producers are trying to rectify that now, and that Bridget is, as Nicole herself said in an interview, an actual bridge between the husbands and the wives so that the show, as a whole, could be a bit more cohesive. Whether they achieve those things or not isn't something that can be determined right now, I don't think, given that the season just started and it takes time to make new elements gel effectively. I will say that, at first, I was leery about the addition of Bridget into the show, and the team, because as a woman myself, I usually find attempts to introduce new, supposedly strong female characters into a show to be transparent pandering. In this case, though, I think Bridget is an interesting character and a good addition to the show. She's obviously competent and can get things done, and can provide the guys with intel and access to people and situations they might not otherwise have gotten. I think she serves a real purpose, and I personally don't think that her being added to the show has hurt it at all in terms of tone and the preexisting dynamics between the characters.

PLEASE lose the new chick. I'm a woman and I did not feel offended that there were no women in 'the unit' so why add one now? It wasn't necessary and it cheapens the show. At the very least, you could have added someone realistic instead of a barbie lookalike. Special forces military women do not wear makeup and highlight their hair. You took a perfectly good action show and turned it into a soap opera. Sadly, if she ends up being a regular on the show, my husband and I will not watch anymore.

I do not like the way her character has changed the dynamic of the team in the field. I hope she doesn't stick around very long. Her chemistry with the rest of the cast is not good. The scene with her and Foley dancing in the club last week was horrible. He seemed more annoyed to have her there then anything else.

I think Foley's character was annoyed with Bridgette too in the scene when she was handing out the clothes and saying she would be the "eye candy" at the club, and when she made that remark about Col. Ryan, and when she was yapping to Jonas in the last scenes.

There's some news re: Nicole's status with the show. I'll leave a little space, so if you don't want to know, it'd be a good idea to stop reading now. Okay, I know that this won't make some people happy, but for those of who like Bridget, it's good news: From the Oct. 21 "Ask Ausiello" from Entertainment Weekly's website - Question: I really like the new female member of The Unit, Nicole Steinwedell (Bridget). Is she signed for the full season? -- MikeAusiello: She is now! Although Steinwedell started the season as a recurring guest star, sources confirm to me exclusively that she's now an official series regular. Word is that the actress was introduced in part to make the show more enticing to women, particularly now that CBS has paired The Unit with the female-skewing Cold Case. But executive producer Shawn Ryan says Bridget serves a creative purpose as well. "The show was feeling like two different parts -- the male-mission part and the women-at-home part," he says. "Injecting this character into both sides of it, to us, has made the show feel a little bit more connected."
