Honestly, I've always disliked Duncan. Even in TDI.

I've NEVER been a fan of the bad boy stereotype, and I think it's one of the most stupid and cliched personality types in the western animation. Especially when they try to pull this 'he has a heart' bull****. He's an ***hole and I never found him funny. Rare occasion, he'll make me lahg, but most of the time I wanna punch him in the face. If it works for you, great, more power to you. But it disgusts me beyond belief when i watch characters like this. Duncan's basically throwing his life away because he thinks its cool to be bad and rebellious, and if TDAS proved anything, that's all he cares about.

I do agree with some of your points, though. Yes, he wasn't that bad in TDI (thoughstill kind of). He wasn't a floater in TDA, no, my main problamo there was that he was annoying as ********************. He always had some stupid, rude, snarky comment to say and they were all just hateful and RUDE. It's not likable or funny, it's just kind of terrible. Not to mention Duncney was repetitive ******** this season. It was the same damn thing constantly and it was older than Moses by the time the season was through. I did like, however, the dynamic between him and Beth as the final two. I REALLY agree with you there my friend. :)

I somewhat agree with what you said in TDWT, but I would have rather been kept laughing by solid comedy than watch a fanbase torn apart by some stupid, unnecesary plot. They could have milked dram with people like Noah. Fanfics have proven that.

My main reason for disliking Gwuncan (aside from it's origins and aftermath) is that they feel too much like friends. They seem more like siblings, IMO.

I'll admitt... I liked him a bit in TDAS. But he was still pretty awkward and still didn't learn that BEING BAD IS NOT COOL. But at least he finally earned a consequence for it.

Overall, despite the fact I disagree with it (as my counter-points show) it was still VERY well-done and i understand your opinion completely. Duncan just isn't for me.

Can't wait to see more! (Hint: Do Beth!)

God bless and good night! :D
