Malcolm being Thea's father is not a bad idea. And it DOES make sense in-context. They could have executed it better, but that's another matter entirely. Also, complaining about comic books being "soap opera-ish" makes me wonder if said people have actually read comic books. Because they're full of that sort of stuff.
I've proven i'm long time comic reader
lol unless you want me to so case pic's of comic' I have and where I keeps them. one be a black card bored box(my black box of comic's) for one stack of many .
The problem is there are some things that have been always bad from them like love triangles among few and more. the one's that end fast as in them being fast ended never to be visited ever again are the best. where we don't have member's of team fight over this one character/ person they are both after when both the world or a people or something like a school of kids/ students they trying to save or protect are in danger at that very moment but they( the main protagnists) want to have fist fight all of sudden over girl/ woman or guy they like or liked (they may not be alive any more) when the villain or creture or robot is there can kill them that very second / moment are the worst and stupidest kinds.
The faster they end the better.
there's a boat load of a lot of list of things that are terrible from them (soap opera's). I love comic's and there are alot of good stories. But there are some plot's I do agree that are the most terrible and those are I notice I've seen from soap opera's where characters from there are intolerable and you really want to strangle them if they were real. sheesh.
the character from soap opera's "North American ones "also act stupid as well. Very, very stupid Where you really want to smack them up side the head. and wish for their death and you feel intellect falling part the longer the shows go on and watch them. Especially when they should know better with some of situations they put them self through.
Cause they been down that road more then twice before.
There's a reason why alot of them stopped being aired as well . Some of were creating moronic people from their fan bases.
But any ways. I stated I was ok with the Thea situation only to a degree. It's better then what was initially planned. Which is why I want Barrowman's husband to be their script doctor or one of them at least cause they need one or more of those it seems. .
