Unpopular fan opinion meme
Gakked from scarfman - When you see this, post five unpopular fandom opinions in your journal.
01. Sergeant Craig Gilmore was vastly better characterised, and much more complex, before the canonical ZOMG love affair with PC Luke Ashton.
02. TV!Dexter should have kept faith and given us ExtremelyMutilated!Doakes as an ongoing character, as per the books.
03. Colonel Klink is a much more sympathetic, likeable and attractive character than Colonel Hogan. Actually, I'd argue most of the other characters are - German or Allied.
04. Doctor Who, in its heyday, lost out by not having at least one story *directly* involving the question of Nazi Germany. Yeah, I know the books did it eventually; yeah I know it's a hot-button issue impossible to deal with in any meaningful way in that context and the respect question is impossibly, mindbogglingly thorny and the very idea absurd if not outright indefensible... but I'd still jolly well have liked to see it on the box.
05. One laughs at Gormsby, yes; one is at times very, very hard put not to laugh *with* him. I think that tension, and the WTF SELF it engenders is a very good thing.
