You're not alone. I don't hate Eliot, but I don't fangirl over him a lot like others. (Then again, prior to discovering Leverage, I never knew much about the Kane fandom. I think I'd fangirl over him a little bit more if I was in the Kane fandom.)

I make fun of his Batman voice when I watch repeats, lol.

[fahrbotdrusilla]

Me too, don't feel bad about it.

[cherrycoloured.livejournal.com]

I'm planning on marathoning Leverage this summer, so maybe my opinion will change after I watch it, but I think he's kind of ugly. The actors playing Hardison and Parker are more attractive to me.

[unicornherds]

I like Eliot, but he's definitely not my favorite. I detest Nate, though. To the point that I actually stopped watching because the actor and character just annoyed me so much it overpowered any joy I was getting from that show.

Another unpopular opinion, I loved Tara. She was awesome. I wish she'd make a guest appearance on some random job.

[welfycat]

I love Tara!!! I want her back so much!

[unicornherds]

She was just so cool and calm and collected and competent and kick ass! I loved how she was always seemed weirded out how the rest of the Leverage team were all so emotionally invested and she was always like, dudes, this is a job.

I want her back. If she took over for Nate I would jump with joy and hug my television and watch obsessively.

[welfycat]

I would love her back on the team in any way possible. She was so much fun. Some of my favorite episodes are ones where she's in. I especially love the fashion designer one ("So many buckles!").

[(Anonymous)]

Tara for the eternal fing WIN.

[unicornherds]

\o/ So glad others love the awesomeness that is Tara.

[cakemage.livejournal.com]

You are so not alone on that last bit. I adore Tara, and not just because I'm a major Jeri Ryan fan. ♥

[unicornherds]

That is so nice to know! I peeked into the fandom awhile ago and saw a bunch of rabid haters and slowly backed away. Fandom is notorious for not liking what they see as replacement characters or intruders. Sad.

I must confess, I'm a big 7of9 fan so I was kind of excited to see Jeri Ryan pop up on my Leverage.

[darkmanifest]

Whaaaaat, how is this an unpopular opinion. Tara was such incredible awesomesauce. I keep hoping she makes a hundred more appearances.

Edit: Oh wait nevermind, fandom hate of new female characters, got it.

[(Anonymous)]

Late reply, but Tara does make a guest appearance in 4.13 (which also has minimal Nate, since everything's happening from the POVs of Sophie, Parker, and Tara). iirc, the episode stands pretty well on its own, too, so it might be worth looking up just for the dynamic between the women on the team.

[unicornherds]

everything's happening from the POVs of Sophie, Parker, and Tara

Yes please! Thank you, I'll definitely go and look that ep up.

[elaminator]

I'm not involved with the fandom, but I do love Eliot. Just not more than any of the other characters. These guys are such a great team and all have their different personalities and their own skills, and I think for the most part I appreciate them equally.

I DO wish Eliot would get more growth as a character though. I think he has had bits here and there, but it's still noticeably less than the others characters.

[(Anonymous)]

I love Eliot because when I started watching the show I was all "oh hai Lindsey! Yay, you're kicking ass!" Also his character reminds me so much of one of my old friends it's a little creepy.
This reminds me, I really need to catch up on Leverage ...

[astridv]

No, I'm with you. I still like him a lot, I just find the other ones more interesting.

[velvet_mace]

I'm really glad that we don't all have to love the same characters equally. It's okay if you aren't thrilled by Eliot (but yeah, good luck finding fic if that's your aim). I thought Leverage was a good show for showing a range of personality types. There's someone for everyone there.

[(Anonymous)]

No, you're not alone, OP. I'm really not a fan of how the entire fandom likes to focus only on Elliot when he's had the least development of all the characters, comparatively.

[darkmanifest]

Ah, I'm not shocked. Eliot's the only young white guy on the team, attractive, and has darkity dark violence in his past...fandom loves that shit. I just love him for being a great straight man, a dose of hard practicality for the rest of the team. And him growling at people never ever gets old for me.
