Couples you dislike #271-Ew! Just ew!

► 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.

They're honestly the worst romance related plot I've seen on TVD which is pretty telling seeing as this show isn't exceptionally skilled to elaborate on romantic relationships in the first place, but at least other couples have basis and substance rather than being randomly introduced to us at some point and established as epic despite the lack of screen time, effort and insight dedicated to their backstory (even the most stereotypically and predictably constructed couple, Snow/Charming, had multiple episodes exposing the audience to their build up). I love Bae and although his adult version used to strike me as off putting before his identity was revealed I'm gradually regaining my initial investment in his character now that he shared some emotional scenes with Rumple and Henry, however, the fact that I enjoy him as an individual doesn't make Emma/Neal any less trite and uninspiring.
I love that Tyler Swift song with the sneakers But I agree with you. I just read an interview where TPTB said Emma still has a "torch" for Neal and how he still has feelings for her and that it might be explored next season, and honestly I'm already scared because of it. Emma just deserves a 100th times better than him, she deserves someone who'll take care of her, who won't let her down, someone she can count on, someone who'll never leave her behind because of who she is. Obviously Neal isn't that man, as you said, the Writers of that show are not exceptionally skilled to elaborate on relationships, but seriously, this one would be one of the worst one IMO, because it just doesn't work out. Both those characters will never truely love each other, and it'll only bring more pain in Emma's life for wondering every seconds if Neal will be there for her of if he'll leave her because something she has done (or simply because of who she is) is not right for him. And living in fear, well that's not love

Oh, it's not how I meant it. I like Taylor's music in general myself But what works for songs doesn't work for actual storytelling, especially in regards to fiction. What I was trying to say is that Emma/Neal are too formulaic and underdeveloped even for a show like OUAT that doesn't tend to invest much of an effort or incorporate subtlety and underlying layers/messages in the relationships and structure them in a specifically careful, clever manner, striving for simplicity instead. Which is not bad, but there is a vast difference between fairy tale-y concepts of true love that conquers all and an objectively toxic relationship that psychologically damage one of the parties involved due to the other party's essential incapability to remain dedicated and devoted or, at least, you know - NOT run off when things get messy and complicated

Let me start with a list cause I need to get this out:

Zoe/George - it's ruining the show.
Owen/Cristina - I'm kinda over them. Yes they love each other but they're way too miss-matched at this point, I can't stand that they're still trying to hold on. They're holding each other back, and I like both characters way to much to see them go through this.
Peter/Alicia - how these two are still a viable option baffles me. I really don't like that she keep on going back to him. I am somewhat enjoying that she's not being such a goody two shoes anymore about it either, and she's with him with her own rules, but still...

And now for our pre-scheduled OUaT spiel:
Snow/Charming - I can't stand them separately. Put them together, and I'd rather have my teeth pulled out.
Emma/Hook - I don't think there's much potential for this to go anywhere. Not that Colin and Jennifer don't have chemistry, but I think the essence of who the characters are wouldn't make it work. I can see them as antagonists, maybe allies and comrades if he gets over his crap but romantically? Nah!
Hook/Regina - see Hook/Emma. Not that I don't think neither of them needs some good loving, in fact I think they both do. I just don't think they'll find what they're looking for in each other.
Greg!Owen/Tamara - see Snow/Charming entry.


From the previous thread...

I can't remember at the moment) looks older than the actor playing her father so yeah it weirds me out. I'm sorry while the story has potential the actors are just hugely mismatched. I don't like it.
The age difference doesn't bother me. Actually let me rephrase that: I could look passed it, if they had chemistry.
Generally my issues with this ship are way more complicated than "the actors don't fit" argument.
I wasn't a fan of the idea Rumple being the Beast to begin with. I was willing to give it a shot if they handled the story right, but they haven't. Their storyline is horrible, the characters portrayal within the storyline is horrible, and yes you are right the chemistry is lacking. So I get it that they are supposed to be this epic love story, but I don't buy it, and right now it's being shoved down my throat a little too forcefully.

Sad but so, so true.
This show had/has so much potential and it's just getting wasted left and right.

So MUCH agreement!!!
Community/Shipping is easily one of my most despised dislikes! The show is not about romantic pairings. It's about the school and the group as a UNIT!
Shipping and shipper wars should be a non issue!

which is a great segway for

It's what ruined Izzie/George. It's why Joey/Rachel didn't work. And don't even get me started on Jackie/Fez.
So yeah definitely add me to the Turning awesome friendships into romances/Life bandwagon. Platonic relationships do exist between people you know...

He didn't give a crap about her in the flashbacks when he cheated on her with her sister, so i don't understand how he went from that to suddenly in love with her? Not to mention it means she has no dignity whatsoever if she takes him back regardless that he slept with her dead sister
