I'm still amazed how much better they made Eliot for the tv show... he's just the best.

 

[Sithborg]

Some great images.

 

[Marvolo]

Just started watching the show and...am I supposed to like the main character? If I am, the show is making it really hard to.

Nobody likes Quentin

 

[Marvolo]

Ok, Cancer Puppy is the most adorable thing ever!

Spoiler

And of course Quentin kills him.

 

[antsman41]

Q is not as annoying on the show... but, I will say.

I ike that Q is a **** sometimes. He's fallible, fails, and struggles. Q's not your typical YA/sci-fi lead in print or live action.
