I'll say this. Mostly the reason I still watched TDAS other than the obvious just to watch the show was mainly because I was rooting for Alejanrdo, and to see what they did with Mal. If they used some contrived plot device and had better writers for him but he isn't the main antagonist so long as they would do a better job with writing the character I would be fine with him returning. But I know Mike has become a rather controversial character and since he won TDAS no chance at that happening ever.

Well to me it really is unfortunate how the characters play out nowadays. The only successful villain that they've had is Heather and every villain after that (with maybe a possible exception of Alejanrdo) has just suffered from the quality of writing. I only say maybe for Alejanrdo simply because his appearance was during TDWT which is apparently the 2nd most controversial out of the series. A fact I did not know up until a few days ago. Of course one could argue for Scott or Jo, unlike Lightning wasn't really an antagonist.
