Hopefully she returns with the series and is given something to do.
I saw it more as Carrie Ann Moss being desperate for work than Netflix looking for name recognition. Krysten Ritter, David Tennant and even Rachael Wilson have bigger name recognition than Moss these days.

Also, I don't agree the character of Hogarth was pointless as the show needed a lawyer character and an employer of Jessica. It initially felt like they were setting her up to possibly be the baddie in season 2 so I guess I was a little disappointed in the payoff of the divorce subplot though.
