I managed to continue to like Cuddy even through season 6 with a few exceptions. I had assumed that once they slept together they would both be able to move on so I still had hope come season 7. I think the Huddy stuff was so poorly handled that it was hard for many serious Cuddy fans (and even some Huddy fans) to still enjoy a favorite character. That said, I still manage to miss her.

I feel the way you do about Cuddy, about Cameron, only in reverse. Early seasons had me cringing when she was on screen. Eventually she morphed into a likeable character that I wished the show had kept. But they completely changed her personality to do that.
