    Characters that changed your mind

    I was thinking this afternoon, as I listened to Over the Air-Waves, about Kelly and how I'd borderline hated her after her first appearance, then slowly her character redeemed herself somehow. I'm not certain of the exact moment which she managed to accomplish this feat, but I know by the time I reached the end of Over the Air-Waves I was less likely to be annoyed everytime I heard her voice, though it is likely she pulled it off when she came back for Michael and Pegs. I have to admit it... I'm now a Kelly fan.

    So I pose the question to you: What character(s) if any did you start out hating but grew fond of over time?

    Well I think a lot of people, myself included, had a reaction to Kelly that is pretty similar to yours. She was the only character I can say I really didn't like who then redeemed herself.
    But I've also had some changes in my view of Riley. I actually liked her from the moment she was introduced. I was a little confused by her accent (I thought she sounded vaguely British in the beginning and I wasn't sure where she was supposed to be from) but I still liked her. Then she kind of disappeared for awhile and sort of became a background character so I sort of forgot about her. The last couple of chapters have really intrigued me though and I really want to know what direction she's going to go in (And I'm also waiting on the edge of my seat for her drunken confession to being the rat). I like the questions about her and the flaws in her character. And I've gone from mildly liking Riley, to being a full fledged fan.

    I hated Kelly in the beginning and I still hate her. She was annoying bitchy bitch when she came to the tower, now she is just annoying bitch. I can't get my self to like her. And Riley I have actually grown to not like. I used to think she was awesome, now I think she is just a traitorous drunk. She changed negatively somewhere. But Pegs I have grown to really like. I never didn't like her, but her development has been extraordinary and she is now my favourite character.

    True story. Pegs is pretty awesome. I'm finding more and more that she's a character I enjoy hearing from.

    My opinion about the characters hasn't changed dramatically enough to mention. I've always approved of Kelly's character even when she inaugurated herself as Queen bitch Bee of the Tower. Angel continues to slowly sink on my Cool Meter. Everyone I didn't like at the beginning, I still don't like and I'm still a fan of everyone I do like although Pegs, my favorite, has left me extremely suspicious.

    Angel has been growing on me ever since his adventure with Kalani. I laughed so hard through that whole chapter.

    Angel has grown on me a great deal. We get to see glimpse of what sort of person he is and what kind of leader he could be.

    Based on the last episode... Kalani has definitely changed my perception of him. That was a sacrifice and a half, my friend. A sacrifice and a half.

    R.I.P. Tons of Fun.

    Definitely Kelly, she gave me the s#%ts at first, but I love her now. I think ever since she looked after Saul & the trip to the boat. Pegs is growing on me, she was really annoying & whiny but now she's grown a pair and is stepping up as an equal, not just a hanger on.

    Ps... Riley is bad ass!

    I've been thinking about certain character's arcs through this season and who might be change my mind. First, Kelly and then Kalani--even after finding out what we did about him, I still love him without judgment--won me over. There are a few characters that I really dislike right at the moment and my favourite characters are presumed dead. Each season we've been gifted with some brilliant characterization by Kc and the cast, having really made the roles their own. I'm excited as balls to discover that character that I couldn't stand having that moment where they impress the hell out of me and win me back.

    I'm hoping it's Tanya.
