He's hilarious.

Don't care about his lack of complexity because flat characters aren't bad characters by any means. Don't care about his lack of performance in challenges because he didn't take a spot from anyone important*. Don't care about his lack of reliability because there are lots of contestants who aren't relatable from every generation and that isn't a bad thing. His job was to be funny and in my eyes he did that for his entire stay.

He also added humor to the whole Scarlett thing which furthered my attention towards it. Loved that interaction.

Finally, as cartoony as he was, the only thing he did that I found unrealistic was the helmet of evil. Otherwise, he was silly, but in bounds.
