Let me make that clear: it is not about the color of the newly introduced character. I fully welcome a more diverse cast!
But the new character is unfortunately completely unrealistic. Not only is she perfect in any way (driving like in fast and the furious, solving cases like Sherlock Holmes and showing empathy like... no other character on the show). She learned all that because she was a student councilor. Yes that's how it is justified.
Remeber Nohlan and how he failed so many times esp. During season 1 and 2? Doesn't matter anymore, we have a new and perfect FBI trainee.
In addition, she is rude to her supervisors (again remeber how the NYPD trainees had to talk to supervisors before?), which makes no sense at all. Literally nobody, would join a meeting of senior staff of different departments and interrupt the main speaker... as a Rookie.
Last but not least, she is allowed to do almost anything. During season 1-3 we learned the strict rules every police officer (esp. Rookies) has to follow. We remember how Brad was almost fired because he hit another car, Nohlen and Chen were advised to break up and many other stories. But the new trainee is allowed to use a police vehicle, interrogate a suspect (because she knows him...) and disobey any command.
Again, I welcome a more diverse cast, but please stay true to your roots and don't turn it into a fantasy show.
