GTFO: 10 Characters People Love and I Don't

[istne_pieklo]

I'm feeling a bit under the weather, and I can't write anything clever (or anything at all), so I thought I'd make a list of characters that annoy me right now and are heavily overrated in my opinion. Standard disclaimer: this is very much an IMHO post. Which means: I am not bashing these characters. I have reasons not to like them but I'm not

Bless you for adding Bond to this list.

I quite like Jon Snow, but aside from him I completely agree with this list insofar as I've seen those shows! (I like River and Amy, too, but I get mad about their... general existence as written.)

And anyone trying to replace Robert Sheehan would fall on his ass, poor bastard. :D

I have heroically read Casiono Royale, spat poison all around me and now can legitimately dislike Bond XD
I don't mind Jon but where does this Jon/Dany ship comes from? Do they meet in the books? I think they don't, but who knows... And unlike most GoT characters Jon doesn't seem to be changing at all (I speak for the show, I haven't read the books).
I've always irrationally hated River, but then it occurred to me that she is very much a victim of Moffat. In the hands of a less... Moffat-like writer, she could be less of a berserk button for me.
And anyone trying to replace Robert Sheehan would fall on his ass, poor bastard. So true! XD

Completely agree re: James Bond, River, and Delphine

I like Cosima (though Sarah is my favourite clone, followed by Helena and Allison; sometimes Helena is number 1 even) and I think she deserves better. I might change my opinion about Delphine later if they develop her, but so far, nope.
I read some Natasha fics because I initially liked her (even though I'd always admitted she was made to be fridged). Some of the fics are very well written, if a little pretentious, but the ideas in them... I'd be okay with Natasha defeating Hatch in a crack fic. Other than that, it's just weird.
Did he just make it up because he was bored? I wish! Alas, I believe it's another plothole. :(
Hook is very annoying! OUAT has its moments, but I mostly watch it for mindless entertainment. I'm kind of looking forward to the spin-off starring Michael Socha.

I really like Cosima too (I'm not sure I can choose a favorite clone...I like all four of the main clones at this point), but yeah, they need to work on developing Delphine if she's sticking around.

re: OUaT
I'll probably sit down and watch the second half of season 2 eventually. I'm looking forward to the spin-off as well, primarily because of Michael Socha. I'm not sure I'd bother with it if he wasn't on it, though.

I'm really scared they might kill Cosima off. T_T
I like the premise of OUAT and I have favourite characters there (Rumpelstiltskin and Regina being the primary examples) but the whole "everyone muuuust find love" message really irks me. It's like, if you're single in that verse, there's something seriously wrong with you XD I'm also going to watch OUAT in Wonderland mainly for Michael Socha but I love Alice In Wonderland, so I'd give this show a try just for taking this story in a (hopefully) new direction. :)
