It is, but I was glad to see him finally get some emotional material to work with

I know. It was always cool to see different layers to Gunn, and see how JAR could work with it.

Yeah, & aside from the few mentions of his sister & his & Fred's breakup (that didn't really get much time), we never saw him sad like that. JAR definitely proved that he could pull it off though

I am a bit happy we got to see him strong most of the time, that's part of what made me love him to begin with.

Yeah, he was definitely strong - he had to be with the way he grew up. He learned how to keep going and not letting any hurt stop you in that way. He must have seen lots of his friends die, but had to just keep going if he wanted to survive/save anyone else. That really shows how much Fred meant to him that he broke down after her death - although I do think he grew softer over his years with the Angel team, & not in a bad way.

The only other death that really got to him was his sisters

Poor Gunn, always losing 'a' most important person of his life.

Yeah, first his sister, then Fred. I think they both completely shook him to the core

Yeah I know! but what makes Gunn a great character is that he doesn't fall down after a tragedy, he keeps on fighting and remaining strong.
He fights through the pain.

Such a good point there. Lots of characters who get arcs like that in tv shows turn evil, Gunn never lost the mission - even when he was completely defeated by the whole situation & wanted to give up - his version of giving up was him suffering in a hell dimension & having his heart cut out everyday so that Lindsay could go free & help Angel in the fight against evil.

Yup. I'm happy Gunn wasn't one of those characters to just turn evil. He never really loss track of his mission. I'm sure there were a lot of times where he just lose control and wanted to give up but he never showed any fear or pain which is why I liked him.

Definitely, especially when he was living on the street - he must have lost hope so many times, but he never stopped fighting




“The final score can’t be rigged. I don’t care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here’s the thing, you never know when you’re takin’ it. It could be when your duking it out with the legion of doom, or just crossin’ the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it all like it was up to you, with the world in the balance, cause you never know when it is.’

It's kinda sad, but it's also kinda optimistic, I think he had the right approach to his life completely

Because I looked at past threads, I noticed that two threads were accidentally named as thread #2... so that would make this current thread #7
