What's a character who was meant to be liked in a show, but who everyone ended up hating? (piefed.social)

A whole host of women on Supernatural who fans were supposed to ship with the main characters but who ended up rather same-y and at best were met with indifference. It got better in later seasons but never really good.

I'll never forgive them for what they did to Charlie

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What did they do to Charlie?

Killed her off-screen, needlessly. Best character in years, could've easily become member of the main cast or at least regular recurring (make her a technomage!!), but nooooo, women on SPN just die, y'know, like it's a law of nature. They KIND OF brought her back later but ugh.

You can blame the God in the series. He is the "writer" and decides who lives and who dies.

i'm gonna be honest, from all i've heard about the show, the thought of a heterosexual pairing never once crossed my mind or social media feed

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The CW violently disagrees ;D

🪽especially when it comes to Dean, Dean is SO heterosexual, straight as an arrow, red-blooded American, no frills no nonsense, likes women exclusively, loves Cas like a brother /s

loves Cas like a brother

Ah, that explains a lot of the fanfic.
