I wasn’t planning on saying anything at all. All I will add to the conversation is when you have to start looking for technicalities and loopholes to rationalize behavior then something isn’t right. It might not technically be wrong or illegal, but somewhere in your own heart it’s going against your personal morals.
Adam and Eddy wrote themselves into a horrible place the minute they brought back Marian. Whether she’s still legally Robin’s wife, he doesn’t love her anymore, or being dead and then time traveling nullifies and voids your marriage, this single act killed many people’s support of this ship. Traditionally, the character of Robin Hood is seen to be one of a noble thief who puts the needs of many above his own privileged background. He has a solid set of ethics and mores he and his men follow. So this back and forth triangle makes it doubling troublesome for many.
I wonder A&E thought this through other than, “Let’s shock everyone in the finale.” These things have long term repercussions and no matter who you ship, or if you don’t, this situation can have no good outcome.
