Brian is a painfully tragic character. It's upsetting that so many characters fail to see why he behaves the way he does. That's one reason I love his relationship with Debbie so much - she always calls him on it.
Brian's transformation throughout the series is personally satisfying for me, having known people like him in real life who grew up with similar issues and act similar to him as a result. His portrayal was very well done and accurate. But Brian DOES evolve and you get to see more and more of his heart as the show progresses, and by the end of it I can't see how any viewer couldn't have fallen for him. Anyhoo, it's super satisfying to me on a personal level, because I've rooted for that transformation for people I knew/loved in real life, but it never happened...:/
