smg01I don't know why, but today I am in the mood to confess my unpopular tv fan opinions. So here are a few:
1. I never really liked Logan Echolls. I thought he was an interesting character, but not a likable one. The regard of so much of the fandom for "woobie Logan" made me want to tear my hair out and negatively affected my enjoyment of VM more than anything else. (I didn't actually tear my hair out though, because my hair one feature that I actually like. Mostly.)
2. I don't like Rodney McKay. I no longer despise him. My feelings have tempered to dislike and irritation, with occasional glimmers of amusement. But mostly, I could do with a whole lot less of him.
3. Unlike almost everybody I know, I don't think that the last two seasons of Buffy were awful. In fact, there's a lot about them that I like, and, I think that overall, more of the story worked than didn't work.
4. Hmm. I can't remember what number 4 was going to be. I may have to come back and edit if I remember.
What are your fandom confessions?

3. I think all seasons of Buffy were better than most of the stuff on tv. I do think that S6 was their worst season with 7 second-worst.

Date: 2008-04-04 07:17 pm (UTC)I know I shouldn't let fandom consensuses sway influence my feelings but for better or worse, it sometimes does. (Which is actually one of the reasons that I don't go full throttle into fandoms.) Sometimes the more that a character is squeed over, the more it begins to negatively affect how I see the character. That reflects poorly on me, I know. But there you go.
There are certain elements of the Cult of Daniel that has had a little bit of that effect on me regarding SG-1. I now try to limit my excessive Jack adoration publicly, because I don't want to inadvertently have that effect on others. ;)
