Mal was all talk and no show. Whatever appeal Mike has to any corner of the crowd probably isn't worth the controversy that surrounds him now. The character has not been used well at all and has quickly become among its least appealing additions. Even if the younger audience may like him, the controversy still stands and the unfortunate implications still present, and to risk kids giving into false or inaccurate depictions of something as sensitive as MPD or any other known disorder is hard to justify. And at the end of the day, he's just horribly written. No development, no depth, no real purpose, primarily used as a plot device..........All the things that can outright kill a character's value onscreen.
