Re: 08
What I'm trying to say is that characters are a product of writing, so you can't blame a poorly written character for screwing up the story, which was what I was arguing in my original comment. A number of fans blamed the new characters in general for mucking up Vol. 2, not just Maya. Maybe their inclusion in the plot was the or part of the reason, but characters don't magically poof into a story. They have to be written into that story first.
I think our problem is that we were arguing over two different things. You were making a case whether or not Maya deserves the hate she gets, while I was making a case whether or not Maya is to blame in any part for Vol. 2's failure. Since both our points involved Maya in some way so it seemed like we were debating over the same issue.
(It's been ages since I watched Mysterious Ways, but the gist of it was that Declan was investigating so-called miraculous occurrences and trying to debunk the mystery using science and logic. It had a pretty spiritual tone to it, so the commonality of naked!Adrian amuses me greatly since Declan was my first exposure to Adrian's work. XD)
Re: 08
(...I hope spiritual doesn't mean explicitly or heavily implicitly Christian, because I'm not Christian and I don't like to be preached to about it, but I really do want to like stuff that Adrian's in. Adrian only strips to the waist in Heroes but he spends large portions of Profit and several movies starkers. Mind you this is not a complaint...)
Re: 08
(No, not in that sense. Just that it suggests there's something bigger than us out there, and we can't always understand how everything works. That spiritual undertone was what drew my family to the show, but it didn't try to preach any religion on you. There are supposedly torrents floating someplace for MW, but I haven't come across them yet. It was a good show, if not short-lived. Ha, naked Adrian is never something to complain about. I should delve more into his filmography, hmmm...)
