Oh damn. Seems like I suddenly missed this yesterday. People hate Mike because he is a poorly written and executed character. He has no personality outside of his disorder, and despite getting a lot of focus, we know nothing about him. Second of all, he is overly irresponsible with hwo he handles everything, but we are supposed to root for him, when he brings a lo of these problems on ourselves. And thirdly, the portrayal of DID IS offensive. Do not come up under my comment with that bull**** about it being a cartoon. If a cartoon made fun of and made a joke of things such as rape or murder on a show like Total Drama, than it would still be wrong, despite it being a cartoon. Mental disorders CANNOT be cured. Mike is just a horrible character all around.
