Don't get me wrong, I like wholesome couples as much as anyone, but it would be refreshing if, for once, the wlw couple were the ones dealing with some drama
I'm not really that involved in the fandom so I have no idea, I only interact here sometimes
I don't actually HATE Finn, I just put him there by process of elimination because at first I loved him and now he's like, meh, he's kind of annoying
When I talk about “underrated” characters, I’m referring to those characters that people say are underrated when, let’s be honest, they never actually did anything memorable enough to stand out during the season.
And it doesn’t always have to do with screen time. Yes, there are characters who would probably be more beloved if they had lasted longer (Nick might be an example), but there are also cases where the character simply didn’t make an impact, didn’t contribute much to the plot, or didn’t have any standout moments. In those cases, I don’t think it’s fair to say they’re “underrated”; sometimes the fandom just doesn’t connect with the character for valid reasons. Not every unpopular character is underrated. Perhaps Marissa would be an example of this.
On the other hand, when I say “not overrated” characters, I’m referring to characters where the community’s affection makes sense. Characters who contributed a lot to the story, had plenty of screen time, good moments, a solid strategy, or simply a memorable personality. It makes sense that characters like that are deeply loved (or even deeply hated) because they leave a mark and spark conversation.
That’s why I sometimes feel that calling them “overrated” doesn’t make much sense; they simply stand out too much to go unnoticed. The most obvious example;; Spencer
