Couples You Dislike #268: NO! Just..... No!!

► No bashing real life people or other shippers
► No baiting and no defending
► NEW RULE: No individual character bashing

Clarification of Rule #3:

If you're listing a couple you dislike such as character/character - and then you write about them and why you don't like them, it's okay to include your dislike for a specific character....but not ONLY that character. Your post should not consist solely of character hate. If you're covering up specific character hate unrelated to what that character does within his or her ship, you'll be asked to edit your post.

"Character/Life", "Character/Existence" and variations thereupon are simply not allowed.

Apologies for the lame ass title...

Some stuff from the previous thread...

While I wholeheartedly support the idea of acceptance of each other's flaws and ability to look past them that definitely contributes to forming a trustful and functional relationship, it is not the same as baseless adoration of every single thing - even a an intentionally hurtful and harmful one - a person does and overlooking every single one of your lover's legitimate flaws. BA and RB are interesting ships that did/do a lot for their respective stories and character development, however, their OTP status really bothers me due to those issues listed above.
I admire you for being able to look past this... Because I agree with you it's absolutely fine and admirable to love someone in spite of their faults. But ignoring who the person you love is, and willing yourself to believe they aren't who they are, is a whole other story.... and that's where Belle is for me. That Rumple also coasts on that is a HUGE problem. If he at least showed some sort of remorse or guilt... but I don't see that. He seems fairly content that she will, literally, let him get away with murder.

Rumple is not just a misunderstood guy who's selfishness led him to be cursed. He has literally lied, manipulated and murdered to get what he wants. There seems to be no consideration or acknowledgement of this on Belle's part. I have no problem with Rumple as an anti hero or having a romance, but, Belle insistence that his heart is pure just comes across disingenuous and like she doesn't really know him at all.
EXACTLY! And I just can't get behind that....

I really dislike Zoe/George centric episodes.... they just bore me to tears too!
At least there was some sort of resolution and I feel they've put the Zoe/George=Picture Perfect True love thing to rest (at least for a while)... if I don't have to sit through another episode of someone claiming they are "perfect for each other" ever again I'll be so freakin' happy!

Kurt/Blaine Pretty sure Thursday night's episode just confirmed to me what I've always known and that Kurt and especially Blaine are far better people when they're apart.

Hook/Belle- I know this is improbable, but I can't shake this sinking feeling that Hook is going to try to seduce her now that she doesn't remember to hurt Rumple more. DON'T even think about going there, writers. After everything he's done to her it's
Vincent/Alex- Seeing Cat's face when she saw them made me ... that and I HATE triangles
Edison/Olivia- This guy doesn't know when to take a hint...

CW Shows/ badly written love triangles

I can't name one CW show that doesn't involve at least one. Beauty and the Beast's Vincent/Alex has tipped me over the edge of CW couple triangle hate. I really should learn and stay away from such shows by now. I actually enjoy well written love triangles but when they are added just for tension

Vincent was written as honorable and watching the last episode with Alex was like watching a different character.

Tristan/Bella: Oh man, I had so high hopes for this one. But OMG it's just so badly written. I feel like my brain is leaking out of my skull every time they have a scene together.

Now, I have never been the biggest fan of those "excusatory" ships where one partner is evil and the other one loves them anyway, etc. But usually, I could get the appeal of a lot of them, even though I personally draw the line on a lot of them. But again, in most couples I get the appeal why the one person (usually the girl) is drawn to the guy and why people go nuts over these ships. But here it's just stupid/makes no sense. It's like two aliens talking to each other.

Maybe one aspect is that it's because it completely lacks the feeling of underdogness that those ships usually have (like original Chuck/Blair, Veronica/Logan, Damon/Elena). Or they are laid thick with this sense of nobility (like Edward/Bella). This story has none of that.

And I actually always liked the guy and I was really rooting for him to finally get a girl who really gets him, etc. And now it happened and the result is just atrocious. They have turned one of my most favourite, most fascinating characters ever and turned him into an annoying dick I don't even recognize anymore.

I think this applies to pretty much every network and shows that rely on triangles.

Which is why I would personally generalise that as

TV shows/Triangles.


It's my worst TV cliche! it's like you can't have a show that won't at some point in some way, do a triangle, and I kinda resent that, especially in how they NEVER resolve them and then move on.


While I'm on the subject of generalising

Community/Shipping
I hate it when this show gets all shippy.... it's not about Jeff/Annie VS Jeff/Britta VS Britta/Troy. It's about the GROUP and GREENDALE!
