Reply To: Why is Hook such a divisive character within the fandom?

[TheWatcher]

Hook and CS are widely loved in the GA

Because a good portion of the people still watching this show are 1) only here for Hook and captain swan and more than likely nothing else 2) are too invested with other characters to leave (like myself) after having spent so much time on the show or 3) are just casual watchers who just genuinely don’t care. The people who wanted to stop watching have stopped watching. And it was a lot of people.

Girl he was killed 3-4 times in one season and came back. He’s never gonna die.

Okay…? How does that make him a well written character? How does that give him plot?

So…..for the 100th time, Michael, you are okay with Hook just being Emma’s boyfriend and nothing more to the story? You keep seeming to overstep this question. Are you afraid to answer? I am really trying to level here and understand but that seems to be about all you’ve got to say or defend with.

Hook is popular. Okay. Lots of characters are on this to lots of different fans. No issue here.

Hook is Emma’s boyfriend. Okay. So was Graham. So was Neal. Heck, so was Walsh. She’s with him and can stay with him all the writers like. Congrads.

Now what else? Because you said Hook was more than a ship yet this is the only side of the argument you are bringing out and quite frankly its getting a bit tiring because I genuinely do want to have this discussion, but it keeps going back to a ship war with you.
