I know, there's another example of major character derailment. All-Stars could've easily addressed some of her shortcomings and helped to improve her image and flesh her out a bit, show that she can be independent and strong with effort and that she was not all about Mike. Instead the season did make her hopelessly naive again, overplayed her strengths to levels nobody was willing to buy into, and literally repeated her arc with Mike almost step by step. I mean they expect us to believe that after a year together they STILL haven't kissed? Stuff like that is insulting to the intelligence of the audience. Instead of addressing the shortcomings of the characters, they exploited them. And seeing how much they wanted to force them to the center stage, that was a huge mistake. I'm not happy they stole so much of the focus in TDAS, to the point where everything else was abandoned and neglected. You have to give equal attention to the whole cast present, damn it. I did not like the Mike vs. Zoey finale, that was a straight up stupid idea.

Yeah, all of those guys went to waste too! Though I gotta say I was happy to see Duncan get some karma since I feel he had dodged it for too long.

Hmm, Scott was still wildly out of character, and Sam was just a butt monkey who had no real purpose for being there. It's especially insulting because Brick was a likely candidate for the season before they settled on Sam. And I could go on forever about how much I despise SMS, that episode needs to burn. The entire season was truly offensive to the entire fandom for a thousand different reasons. Like I said the derailments are out of control and apparently deliberate. That needs to stop NOW.

Yeah well they should be a sudden excuse for the bad writing that plagues TDAS, I don't think it can be argued that it was horribly and unprofessionally written. It did not keep its viewers in mind at all. And if they like it fine, but I don't have to agree with it nor do I understand it, and like I said it should not be an excuse for something I'm quite certain the majority hated for the fact that it was horribly written. There's a reason it provoked so much frustration and now they need to get serious about addressing it. Not an excuse for bad writing, none at all. And frankly, I don't know how you can defend it anyway.

Fitting rankings I think.

I'd love to Aaliyah, but they brought this mess upon us and didn't stop to recognize the damage it would cause. They're going to have to make the first move in finally letting us forget. They caused this mess, they have to fix it. Believe me, I'd love to bury this thing, and burn it away into nothingness. We deserved much better than this, everybody did.
