Re: Inspired by #1

A lot of the couples in HP tbh, none of them really worked for me and while I liked Remus/Tonks to begin with it went in a direction I didn't like. I still like them on some level but it is a lot more muted than it was.

Castle/Beckett, I just never really got why they were together. Like they solved cases together and shit, which was great and they made for good friends but I never felt like that romance made much sense other than because he was the main guy and she was the main girl.

Kurt/Blaine on Glee, but then I didn't really care about either of them much. Same for Rachel/Finn, it mostly bored me.

Matt/Karen on Daredevil, part of it is certainly because I actually preferred the idea of Karen/Foggy but in season 2 especially I found the Matt/Karen scenes dreadfully dull.

I often feel the leads on procedural shows have chemistry together, but I really didn't feel it for Beckett and Castle. IDK if it is because the actors had issues and I could sense it for the characters or if it was because the characters as they were presented just didn't mesh for me, but I agree with you on those two.

I didn't care for Kurt/Blaine either, but mostly I think that was because I just really disliked Kurt as a character.

At least for me the budding-romance aspect of it was there in early season 1 but by season 2 and onwards it had tapered off into a more platonic work-type relationship(and that's not saying that romances can't be built from that but at least for me it never really managed to go beyond that platonic feel, and I also liked the guys Beckett dated just fine and was annoyed that the show seemed to want me to hate them 'because they got in the way' ugh, same for the women Castle hooked up with too).

Yeah I wasn't a huge fan of Kurt either, I liked aspects about him: his relationship with his dad for instance, but by himself I was just meh over him. But tbh I'm not sure how many characters on that show I actually liked in general(I still don't really know why I watched it, lol).

I agree that the relationship seemed platonic to me. And I do hate when shows want me to dislike a character solely because they "get in the way". (Or worse, they purposely turn a character into a caricature/villain because they get in the way.)

I loved Kurt's dad, and thought the relationship between him and Kurt was the best part of Kurt's character. And agreed on not liking most of the characters. I watched mostly for the music, myself. :D

Yup, it's so damn annoying it's like 'here's this otherwise perfectly nice character but you have to hate them because they're not who x-person is supposed to end up with' and it's like, could you maybe write a/b getting closer instead of this bullshit? Maybe I'd like a/b more then. (Oh god yeah, like the character that's purposefully written as horrible as possible so that you'll hate them and it's not at all a coincidence that the character is a love rival, nope, completely accidental that).

His dad was a sweetheart and probably one of the better-written aspects of that show, at least when I was still watching. Yeah the music was decent which was probably why I stuck about for as long as I did(and why I couldn't stick it out all the way to the end, it only kept me interested for so long :P).

ngl the only couple that made it through the series canonically that I enjoy is Bill and Fleur. They remained awesome from start to finish. Everyone else... I love most of the pairings in theory but her execution was... not great.

Re: Inspired by #1

[nightscale]

Oh, you know what I have no negative feelings towards them at all, they're fine. Probably because she didn't delve into them much, lol.

But there you go a HP romance I didn't dislike on some level.

Just like I said upthread, Bill/Fleur escaped JKR's bad romance writing because they were mostly off-page.
